I honestly hope so, I'm not saying he looked bad in his first action but tbh Bortles first preseason game was more impressive lol. But it's preseason week 1, means nothing as of now.

I saw the game in the stadium and I was not real impressed, although I was cognizant of the fact that he did not get enough reps to get into any kind of rhythm.   But I also recorded the TV version and after watching that, I was a lot more impressed.  Mainly with his arm strength and accuracy.  

One thing I noticed from watching live is that the plays he was running didn't seem to be designed with a check down that he could use if the downfield guys were not open.  It seemed like that resulted in him holding the ball too long.  I saw an interview with Darrell Bevel and he said on one of those plays, it was a 2-man route, so that would tell me that they actually have some plays that don't have a safety valve if the downfield receivers are not open.  I don't understand that.

I also think he'll look a lot better as we emphasize the running game more.
