PRAISE BE THE BORTORTLE

Also I would totally bang Bortles, 2x if he wins a SUPERBOWL.

Actually Jax vs. NOLA would be super fucking swag.

In post 1635, Bella wrote:My thought that the Bills will beat the Jaguars is not based in any way on the Bills being a good team, it's based on my expectation that the Jaguars will somehow fuck this up. I fully expect it to finish like 10-9 and accurately be shit on as the worst playoff game in history.

Yeah I don't think this'll happen.

Like I don't actually have faith in Bortles, but I do have faith in Fournette/Yeldon/Grant ripping the Bills D a new one, with Bortles being competent enough to take advantage of the fact that the Bills have to literally play 8 guys in the box every play.

BROseidon · Post Post #1639 (isolation #8) » Fri Jan 05, 2018 9:42 am

Also Jax has a really good defense.

In post 1640, racefan12 wrote:Fournette was... not right the second half of the season, and I don't see him or anyone else on Jacksonville's offense scaring Buffalo. If the Jags do win, it'll be because the defense scored a touchdown and/or gave the offense a bunch of short fields.

Fournette is still very good and the bills run d is very bad

BROseidon · Post Post #1644 (isolation #10) » Fri Jan 05, 2018 3:17 pm

Also Jax has Marquis Lee back

PRAISE BE BORTORTLES.

And the team around him that's better-than-average.

BROseidon · Post Post #1685 (isolation #14) » Sun Jan 07, 2018 7:22 am

PPR makes a NE RB relevant and therefore it is bad.

BROseidon · Post Post #1686 (isolation #15) » Sun Jan 07, 2018 7:22 am

Burn the Pats

Any format that makes a Patriot's RB relevant is bad.

Also praise be the Bortortles

BROseidon · Post Post #1706 (isolation #18) » Sun Jan 07, 2018 4:21 pm

I feel like NE over Titans is the safest pick for next week by far.

BROseidon · Post Post #1774 (isolation #19) » Tue Jan 16, 2018 3:11 am

Praise be our lord and savior Blake Bortles.

Might as well keep Cleveland a joak.

Tom Brady must die by the hands of Floridaman.

BROseidon · Post Post #1832 (isolation #23) » Mon Jan 22, 2018 8:14 am

You'd think the NFL would stop giving the Patriots every marginal call because nobody wants to see them in the SB.

BROseidon · Mon Jan 22, 2018 10:53 am

I actually want Floridaman to kill him at this point

BROseidon · Post Post #1857 (isolation #25) » Wed Jan 24, 2018 2:18 am

Jax keeps Bortles imo. Bortles shows a lot of leadership qualities that are harder to teach than his lack of mechanics/accuracy.

BROseidon · Post Post #1878 (isolation #26) » Sun Jan 28, 2018 6:45 am

I hope someone goes all Tonya Harding on Tom Brady.

Hey guys Six Nations is starting y'all should watch a sport that's actually fun to watch

Yeah so this happened today and it was really cool.

BROseidon · Post Post #1904 (isolation #29) » Sat Feb 03, 2018 6:48 pm

Yeah except the part where it's from open play.

Which, fun fact, is still a rule in the NFL. It just almost never happens.

BROseidon · Post Post #1905 (isolation #30) » Sat Feb 03, 2018 6:49 pm

It was also during injury time to win the game after FOURTY-ONE phases of play, like 20+ of which were during injury time.

BROseidon · Post Post #1907 (isolation #31) » Sun Feb 04, 2018 7:03 am

Lol @ thinking that's a punt.

BROseidon · Post Post #1908 (isolation #32) » Sun Feb 04, 2018 7:04 am

Hilariously enough, the Pats were the last team to use a drop goal in the NFL, and it was done by Nate Ebner, who was a rugby player converted to a football player.

It wasn't even that questionable, football is just dumb.

Also yay fuck NE.

This has been a good day.

BROseidon · Post Post #1927 (isolation #35) » Sun Feb 04, 2018 4:21 pm

So the thing is he clearly has control over it from when he catches it and football needs to stop having a hard time with what "control of the ball" means.

BROseidon · Post Post #1928 (isolation #36) » Sun Feb 04, 2018 4:22 pm

It's like "oh the ball moved a centimeter in his hands CLEARLY NOT IN CONTROL," and like that's, uh, dumb.

So like yes we all wish that Jacksonville had won, but this is still preferable to the Pats winning.

BROseidon · Post Post #2014 (isolation #38) » Mon Feb 05, 2018 3:23 pm

Tbf Brady can actually only throw the ball.

Watching him try to do anything else is kind of painful tbh. He's not, like, actually athletic in any agility or speed sense.

In post 2015, PJ. wrote:He's actually a better scrambler than you'd think. He's no Rodgers or Bortortle, but for a traditional stand still QB, he's actually a bit shifty

He doesn't really "run," though. He seems to mostly dip high tackles and shift slightly to get the ball out

BROseidon · Post Post #2025 (isolation #40) » Tue Feb 06, 2018 7:21 am

Like yeah Brady is tough and a great QB but him going for a reception on a trick play had a lot of downside because it's Brady

In post 2027, T-Bone wrote:He's tough and athletic....and the perception that he isn't a threat to run is precisely why the trick play almost worked. No one was within 10 yards of him. Like, you couldn't run that play with Cam on the field.

I would not be surprised if Cam can break coverage tbh
