The grass is always greener.

Bortles is a much better QB than he's given credit for, he's pretty much actual middle of the road, it's just that the bib brigade thinks if someone isn't Mahomes then he's Gabbert, but that's just not true.

Watching the Jags offensive performances against mediocre to bad defenses with Kessler shows that Bortles wasn't the worst QB in the league like he gets talked about. He's just not good enough that the team should have settled for him.

I hope the Jags aren't stupid enough to sign another team's Bortles and instead just stays with low cost guys until they can draft an actual franchise QB.

I went back and watched the season from the beginning. Blake is not the issue. Nohe is not All-pro, but he function well in this system until you begin to take the offensive pieces away one by one. The end of the season offense was hardly the same as it was in games 1-4. Blake and the OC were scapegoated for poor depth and adjustment. In fact, if I was going to put a finger on a few main issues it would be the OL (center over to RT), lack of a blocking TE, lack of WR effort, and playbook knowledge.

Flacco is not an upgrade.
