So frustrating because they had chances today. Bortles left several great opportunities on the field.

 

They failed like everyone does up there, but they definitely weren't out matched.

Agreed. If the Jags had a better QB than Bortles, they would have won that.

That defense is way too good to not keep Jaguars relevant in the division

 

Bortles might have already lost them. He left 300 yards on the field that his WRs should have had. 1 starting outside WR had 1 catch. 1 catch. A catch. In a playoff game. And that wasn't the number of times he was open and that probably wasn't the first time that was his stats for a day of hard work.

I really hope the Vikings win. I don't think the Eagles have a chance, but the Vikings with their defense and home field advantage do have a shot.

In Philly, they are greasing the lightpoles to prevent fans from climbing them.

You can't tell that he's unliked from Jersey sales.

NE has a huge fan base ....but no other fan of another team is going to wear a TB Jersey. I’m sure he is respected but nobody is rooting for him. I was hoping for a new story for the SB...unfortunately it will be the same old one. NFL is happy because it helps ratings but that is about it.

CONgrats to Dwayne Allen, RJF, and Phillip Dorsett....Belichick and Brady winning with our cast offs...if that doesn’t tell you they are the greatest I don’t know what would.

They didn't really win with our castoffs.  Our castoffs are there for the ride.

Do you buy jerseys of players on other teams? You are unique if you do.

Cmon guys, leave the kid alone. He wasn’t hugged enough or spanked as a child. Not his fault he’s a millennial. Has no real concept of pure evil.

Look, your hate for New England is childish and Petty. Don't get salty with me because you don't know how great Brady is. You hate them 'cause you 'aint them. Brady is the GOAT, undisputed. It's not Manning. You know if you had 'refs rigging the game' for the Colts we would both enjoy 6 Super Bowls "With Astriks". Patriots fans are classy and I know a few who wish us the best of Luck for our future. BTW I am rooting for the Vikes to win the SB, but I wouldn't mind 'Touchdown Tommy' to get a sixth Lombardi because he might retire. Good day sir!

Lol just give the pats credit don’t be haters all your life. I Hate them when they play us I guess but to watch them handle adversity dealing with other teams I’m constantly entertained cheating or not cheating that team is something to aspire to be like.

Don’t get me wrong, if it were just Belichick I’d be all for it. It’s that other fellow that is along for the ride that gets far too much of the kudos.

"It's not Manning" lmao Manning is on your mind though so you know he belongs in the  convo. 3-1 vs Tommy in Title games too.

Brady is only as great in a homers mind as the homer is secure, and you are very insecure.

Oh, I agree he is in the conversation. I loved the Manning years of the Colts. But Brady is the GOAT after careful consideration IMO.

I would say between Brady, Montana, and Peyton it's a toss up. Brady is awesome so if someone says he's the GOAT it's hard to debate it. All the guy does is win big games. I knew he wasn't losing to Jacks like most of us did.

All have their strengths and weakness in terms of argument. 

 

Montana never lost lost a SB and was lights out. But he had Rice for a good part.

 

Brady has 5 rings. But Pats without him are 14-6.

 

Manning has just about all the records but only 2 rings. And one of those he was along for the ride.

 

At the end of the day, it’s gonna have more to do with the laundry you wear than any real objectivism. But the REAL answer is Manning.

    • I agree.  I think this is another one of those over-hyped QB classes that will probably never perform to the level of the hype. But -- teams still need a quarterback.  And will convince themselves that that must take one of these quarterbacks.  That it's the only solution to their problem.  If I was forced to choose, I would probably go with Heisman winner Jayden Daniels.  I'm concerned that Caleb Williams may have some personality issues to go with his lack of measurables, even though he shows strong ability to improvise.  Drake Maye has the measurables, but I have questions regarding the level of opposition playing at UNC.  It's not the same as playing the equivalent of the Crimson Tide every single week.  JJ McCarthy is "good".  And he's been successful.  He led his team to a BCS championship.  And?  I see him in the same mold as AJ McCarron.  Supremely successful in college, but not good enough to be The Guy in the pros.
    • Right. KC was also a perennial playoff team prior to Mahomes taking over. The Colts are a fringe playoff team at best, until we see if AR can lift the roster.    And to your point, Veach took over the summer before Mahomes’ rookie year. Hard to compare how KC’s FO approach with Dorsey at GM (for several years) vs. when Veach took over. It seems like Ballard has been more like Dorsey and Veach might just operate differently from both of them.    If Ballard wanted to follow the Veach KC model, he sure waited a long time to do it once Luck retired. 
    • DeFo was an aggressive move.   But I wouldn’t classify Wentz or Ryan as aggressive moves. Getting Stafford would have been an aggressive move at QB. Wentz was cheaper and PHI was looking to dump him. They didn’t even budge from their initial offer to PHI  And Ryan sort of fell in their laps after they dumped Wentz. 
    • I think most important option is missing in the poll : No One.   I think it's a fairly average QB class that it's okay to not like anybody enough to draft him. There's no one QB that Wows you with their pocket passing Caliber or pure athletic traits or good combination of both. It's like a tweener class of all those abilities, having lop-sided combination of above said skills.    And, this poll, rather than forcing to pick one QB, needed that extra option to express staying away from this QB class.
