NFL

Guys aren't just one level. Bortles played great football to lead the Jags to competency. When he stopped being competent, so did the team. He was far better than Jacoby has ever been, let alone now, when the Jaguars were a fringe contender.

All three of Allen's throws, and numerous other decisions to throw his body around and just generously be ten steps beyond reckless, were terrible. They weren't even sort of caused by anything the Jets did. He just randomly melts down a couple games a year.

Nobody is stacking the box less with any backup QB in the league. Jacoby doesn't get you into plays that magically beat a stacked box. He doesn't magically make the worst line in the division capable of creating run lanes or pass protecting. He doesn't give you a play caller who knows what a NFL offense is. They're still a bottom 5 offense with Brissett. At least Wilson has the arm to force some balls to their only needle moving receiver.

Wilson isn't a good QB. But current Brissett is every bit as bad.
