Blake Bortles’ performance last week in the Jacksonville Jaguars’ absolute domination against the Houston Texans was something we’ve been waiting to see since he was drafted. He is becoming the quarterback we saw signs of in the 2015 season. He was able to move defenders with his eyes, pump fake to create space, extend plays with his feet, and (most importantly!) make throws in tight windows farther than 10 yards down the field.
A 31-point lead was the largest point differential going into halftime in franchise history — and a big reason why was Bortles.
