Bortles was the perfect quarterback for him to worship. Jason’s character just wouldn’t have hit the same if the Jags were good during the show’s run, or if Bortles was a standout passer on a terrible team. He posted an [NFL passer rating of 98.5](https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BortBl00/gamelog/post/), the highest of his three-career playoff games. [New England Patriots](https://www.patspulpit.com/) on the rope for three quarters. Saw him doink the ball off a Chief helmet, into another Chiefs’ players hands, and fell to my knees. Or even when he fooled the entire league by throwing 35 touchdowns in 2015. The inconsistency continued into the playoffs. In Jacksonville’s Divisional Round win over the [Jacksonville Jaguars](https://www.bigcatcountry.com/) selected Bortles third overall in the 2014 NFL draft, and Bortles was the team’s starting quarterback from 2014 through 2018. He survived a training camp competition with Chad Henne to win the starting job, but his inconsistency continued throughout the regular season. As for the offense? After the Jaguars survived a “thrilling” 10-3 game in the Wild Card round, Bortles faced questions about his play.
