Last week finally cemented reality. The Jacksonville Jaguars had the Steelers beat for 50 minutes of that game and then watched as the clear disadvantage at quarterback once again came back to haunt them. Blake Bortles is just not their guy. He’s incapable of answering the bell by himself when the team needs him. He had the perfect conditions last year and his season was pedestrian at best. It’s time for the Jaguars to move on. Justin Herbert has all the tools to be the guy they need from size to arm strength, accuracy, and mobility. He’s also capable in clutch situations.
