Blake Bortles must learn third new offense in three years

Another 300+ yard game for Blake Bortles and another loss. It’s a sad but predictable story in his career as he struggles to have a measurable impact in the win-loss total when he actually plays competent football.

In Week 8, that meant 337 yards while completing 61 percent of his passes for three touchdowns. Those are impressive numbers and would be even better if they were accompanied by a ‘W’ at the end of the game.

Instead, the abysmal first half play (when the Jaguars couldn’t even muster up 100 yards) has led to the deserved dismissal of Greg Olson and the promotion of quarterbacks coach Nathaniel Hackett to offensive coordinator.
