Knowing how much he values that type of play odd that the Jags were not in on Tyrod. I was just coming here to say the same thing. The Jags know that Bortles mistakes are one of the only things that could hold them back. I’m surprised that they didn’t take that off the table with Tyrod. I guess it’s possible next year. I don’t see Bortles there long-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloSol Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I really hope they lose a bunch of games this year, I hate marone, a bunch of their players, and their newly formed "fan base." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemma Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Marrone would rather coach robots. He's dour/anal and will suck the fun out of the game for Bortles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like a $16.5M dead cap hit after this year. They could draft a guy and/or try to get Tyrod for $10m a year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I’m sure that’s what has been holding me back all these years, dammit! Lol but seriously, that approach can work to a point, but it can only get you so far. Sooner or later, you are going to play a team that can score regardless of how good your D is (I.e. NE) and you have to be able to move the ball through the air and on the ground to win. Hiding your QB and leaning only on the run game isn’t going to get it done vs the better offenses and defenses. Jalen Hurts has won a ton of games at Bama that way but even Lil Nicky knew that he had to put his gunslinger in the game and throw the rock around when his normally lock down D couldn’t stop UGA’s offense and UGA’s D was able to make them one-dimensional. I’m sure it makes him cringe seing Tua “get lucky” on some throws that could have gone the other way, but the rewards of the passing attack can outweigh that. Like I said, it can work at times but very rarely do you see the 2000 Ravens, for example. Eventually you need to take chances through the air Edited September 6, 2018 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Doug Marrone this week: "My goal for Blake Bortles is zero turnovers." Doug Marrone next week after a Blake Bortles interception: "My goal for Blake Bortles is no more than 1 turnover this season." Doug Marrone in 2 weeks. . .

BillsInWilmingtonNC Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Everyone hear McDermott tell Daboll not to be affraid to make a mistake and take chances during embedded 4 around 14:30..... Glad we have McD and not Marrone. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Quote When asked if he'd trade 15 additional touchdown passes from Bortles if that meant five more INTs than last season, the coach responded, "No." "Because I know the turnovers will lead to wins and losses more than the touchdowns," Marrone said. Now I fully understand why we're starting Peterman! ? BTW Doug, we'll take the TD's over the turnovers every time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Man people overreact to things around here. If I was the coach, I would say the same thing too, and I would hope that my QB goes into the season with the same mentality that he doesnt want to throw any interceptions this year. You think BB goes out and sits Tom down and tells him it's ok to throw an INT because it means he was trying to make something? And if the QB is going to wilt under a comment like that with pressure then he is not a starting QB in the NFL. I doubt Marrone will bench or cut Bortles if he throws an INT, he just doesnt want him turning the ball over cause that leads to wins for the other team. This 'jilted lover' syndrome between Bill's fans and Marrone is over the top. He was dispised by fans while he was here, and then when he gave them what they wanted and left, fans went nuts because he quit, many I assume just disappointed cause they didnt get to watch ownership do their best imitation of Vince McMahon and fire him in public.

Blokestradamus Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 I was curious to see how many turnovers Blake has actually had in the NFL. 79 in 4 years. I'm not even mad, that's impressive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite Blake Bortles fact. Blake Bortles only averages 0.4 yards more per pass attempt than per rush attempt. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
