I feel like we'd hear about it by now. I know a lot of us feel hopeless with him, but he's the guy until he's not and I want him to succeed

I just see him at barstool sports parties on Snapchat and IG. Not much mention of workouts.


I'm not bashing him.. I like Bortles .. just saying that's all I've seen.

I'm pretty sure he said he was taking a month or so off after the season then he'd start training.

He said he'd spent 10 weeks in California this offseason to train at Tom House's facility. No idea if he changed plans or anything or when he's going exactly.

Bortles on Barstools? You don't say... I didn't know he was training for beerfest...

He's not the franchise QB. I would take Mahommes or Watson in this draft and trade Bortles to Cleveland or Buffalo.


And sign Romo to fill in for 2 or 3 years. (Yes I know he could get hurt, but you know what you got when healthy)


If he gets hurt then I put the Rookie in.

Hes probably still in a recovery period given his injuries. Well probably hear more in like a month.

Dedeaux took over as the main trainer, and was the guy that came here to help with Blake's crash course mid season training in season. I don't think House will be working with him.

Jesus Christ. That party was the week of the superbowl. These guys get time off too. Believe me, Bortles knows what is at stake and will do everything in his power to be the best he can. He'll be training with a QB coach this offseason.

It's early. I'd wait until after free agency and just before or after the draft before I started training if I was in his shoes. He's probably curious to see if the front office is going to try and [BAD WORD REMOVED] him this off-season.  Ninja

I hope so.  His 2015 form.  He was given more credit than the receivers had.   Outside of the top 100.

Huge gap between curiosity and despair. We heard about his Tom House plans pretty early on before the 2015 season and heard he wasn't working with him pretty early before last season. Curiosity, my friend.

He's, fine.  He's got Coughlin.

He did indeed, but we need to ignore that.  Vacations aren't allowed, even to heal up a bit after a long season.

Plus we also need to remember that everything he does will be broadcast on snapchat and instagram. If we didn't see it, it didn't happen.
