I thank God Trevor is our QB now, but I've never wanted a player to be good as badly as I wanted Blake to be good.

If Blake has better mechanics he could have been way better. I look forward to seeing how good Trevor can be.

The blake bortles era was definitely a roller coaster time and both fun and distressing to watch. And while i rooted real hard for Blake, i also knew that he wasnt gonna be the future. And i kind of hated that the jags didnt pursue a cheaper QB (IE anyone not named Kirk Cousins) in the 2018 FA.... like maybe Alex Smith, whose style of play complemented very well with what the jaguars wanted to do. Of course, had alex smith came here and did what he did with Washington, the jags might not be sitting where they are today with a potential superstar qb. And we might have missed out on Minshew Mania and that would have been a shame.

For a guy getting sacked so much, he hung in there. Like Andrew Luck, eventually the injuries pile up and the stats begin to fall. Bortles didn't get a fair shot but he made the most of what he got, considering the circumstances. I was a fan of him, I hate seeing guys with big ups get beat on and wasted on teams with crap coaches, crap players and crap owners. That's not exactly fertile ground.

@clarkkent1521 3 ай бұрын

@@j.s.friedman9649 So I see you're sticking with the narrative that Bortles was the reason they had success that year. No, it was mostly the defense, the Historical Sacksonville. That season Bortles had his lowest career stats since his rookie year, meaning the less he did the better the team was. The defense didn't have to cover as many of his mistakes which enabled them to perform at a high level. It was quite evident Bortles sucked when had a complete melt down the following season and was essentially fired midway into the first year of his new extension. "One quarter away from the Super Bowl" is like all those Wentz fans who won't stop saying "he almost won an MVP". And the tons of money part, that's what happens when someone is overpaid. Should not have been a first round pick let alone #3 overall.

@j.s.friedman9649 3 ай бұрын

He didn't have a complete breakdown after that season, he was incredibly consistent and that year was no different than any year. In fact, like any quarterback he needed a good team to support him that's all. I admit he had a total breakdown in the 4th quarter of the championship game, but that's what's sports psychologists are for. What he's capable is the perfect game against Pittsburg to get to the championship game 357 yrds passing in the air. Bortles was there when they had terrible teams, as soon as some young stud good defense came along he nearly took them to the superbowl @@clarkkent1521

Lauren this is the first video I’ve seen from your channel, you’re pretty good. At least now Jacksonville finally is heading in the right direction again, but this time around it’s looking like they’re here to stay. As a Patriots fan, it was almost like Karma in a way that they lost to the Eagles in the Super Bowl considering some of the officiating that I’ll have to admit wasn’t on an even playing field. Crazy that now in 2023 the Patriots future isn’t looking that great while the Jaguars have one of the brightest futures ahead. Trevor Lawrence definitely looks like he could lead Jacksonville to a Super Bowl eventually

Loved the time that BB5 was in charge, especially the 2017 season. That was just such a fun season to watch until we got robbed. The #MJWD play will always sting, like 1999, but I'm ecstatic that we had the season we did last year, and hoping that it doesn't turn into 2017 2.0. But with T-Law, Dougie P, our receiving core, Engram, and a very solid D, I would be very shocked if we have a regression on that caliber.

That 2018 season was NOT helped very much though with Tom Coughlin being a literal piece of garbage. He may have had a good career as a coach before, but he WAS THE REASON the Jaguars do so badly and fell apart in the 2018 season. He definitely is up there with some of the worst GMs in NFL history. Just because he had a good draft and made a good team for 2017 doesn't mean he isn't held accountable for his childish policies and temper tantrums that derailed the Jaguars in 2018. It took 3 damn years to clean up after the mess he left for us and rewrite this culture he ruined in the locker room.

One important thing that gets glossed over often is that a lot of those franchise record breaking numbers that he piled up during the 2015 season were accumulated during garbage time. Loved Bortles, but he could only play well when things were smooth sailing… aka playing second fiddle to one of the best defenses ever in 2017.
