Bortles didn't man up to the challenge. I wouldn't expect him to be a leader in the clutch moments. But then again, if he lost the backup job he wouldn't be able to compete for a job and he could be out of football. I don't really blame him but I won't miss him either. Good luck.

The second they signed Dalton it became clear that Bortles was nothing more than a camp body. Bortles may have been a bargain, but if you are in it to win now Dalton gives you the best chance if Winston were to go down again.
