Can someone link me or explain to me why they think Bortles isn't a decent QB? I've seen that opinion around these parts for a while but statistically he seems pretty good, even if a bunch of it is garbage time.

Thats it. The garbage time and the 1/1 win/pick-6 ratio. The many sacks. a stupendous amount of his positive stats have been in garbage time (I dont know the numbers exactly), which I think is kinda bullshit because they have been in a number of games, especially in 2015 when he had his best year - they were in most of their games, but lost them eventually (sometimes because of picks, other times because the Jaguars have a lovely defense and no run game, other times because of missed field goals).

He's still young, but he's been very bad while games are competitive. Like garbage time usually isn't that much of a thing, but looking at his splits, a lot of his production comes when the Jags are out of games.

He will still get this year to prove himself, but he needs to take a strong step forward.

Also, the old QB coach apparently has a reputation for being poo poo, so who the gently caress knows.

Jags can't have nice things. :smith: Whole bunch of lovely to mediocre QBs after Brunell.

FO did an analysis last year that showed that literally one fourth of all of Bortles' TDs occurred in garbage time, or when his team was trailing by 21+ in the third quarter or 14+ in the 4th quarter*

Allen was the money guy and while he didn't get the penalty imposed, he took the risk when 30 of the other 32 teams did not. gently caress him, gently caress this team.

This last season of trash had to have a ton to do with playing no a separated shoulder most of the season though. I'm not saying he's elite but calling bust seems premature.

Yeah reading the article he was just a passenger. They arrested one of the other passengers (not the driver) for public drunkeness so I'd imagine they were looking for a reason to bust everyone if they could find it.

Not that Aldon deserves any benefit of the doubt at this point I guess.
