Blake Bortles a top 12 QB after breakout season

Amassing over 4,400 passing yards (7th in the NFL) and 35 TDs (2nd in the NFL), Bortles was arguably the most improved player in the NFL after recording one of the worst quarterbacking seasons ever as a rookie.

There was plenty of debate this season about the merits of Bortles’ production, particularly after the Jaguars blowout win over the Indianapolis Colts in week 14 when Bortles threw for 3 touchdowns and no interceptions, but inexplicably and moronically got awful grades from Pro Football Focus and ESPN’s dubious QBR statistic.
