2016 - 3-13

Head Coach Doug Maroone

Blake Bortles threw 16ints last season and struggled through camp almost being replaced by Henne or Kapernick.  This season with this young defense with Jalen Ramsey, Myles Jack, and Dante Fowler emerging it will be tough to score on them.  Bortles may not have to do much.  Beating the Texans on the road is only a preview of how good they can be.
