Stats!



Passing:

QB Blake Bortles – 4499 yards (4th most)73.3%, 38:10 ratio (most TD, 3rd fewest INT for 16 game starters), 112.6 QB Rating, (Best). 2 Rush TD< 35 sacks.

That’s his best season so far. Pretty good Bortles!


Rushing:

DeMarco Murray - 252 carries for 1200 yards, 12 TD, 59 catches, 440 yards, 3 TD. 8th most rushing yards, 2nd most rush TDs.

Not bad when your 31 year old running back can do that, right? He dropped to 61/61 in rating, but he’s still looking solid there.


Receiving:

WR Marqise Lee – 91 grabs, 1444 yards 93rd most), 16 TD(most), 15.87 yards/catch is 4th most among qualifiers

WR Allen Robinson – 80 for 951, and 12 TD (tied for 2nd most in NFL).

WR Justin Blackmon – 52 for 603 and 4


Lee’s best season thus far, but just a little more than normal. Robinson keeps flirting with that 1000+ plateau.

K Tyler Bernard, 34 of 41, long of 55, and 52 of %# PAT and led league in scoring
P Brad Nortman – 70 pounts, 25 in 20,m and 44.2 average – the most we’ve ever had. Middle of the pack
WR Blackmon, 1 KR, led league in average kick returns by 3.8 yards with 32.8 yards in 33 returns.


You can see one of the reasons I like to keep Blackmon around, despite adequate receiving stats. Guy can return punts all over the place.


Defense –

DE Kenneth Butler – 28 tack and 14 assist; 11 sacks, 3 blocked passes, 16 hurries, 1 QBknown, 2 FF, 2 FumRec
DE Cesar Velazquez – 52 and 13; 11 sacks, 3 blocked, 19 hurries, 28 knockdowns, 2 FF
DE Glen Willis – 14 and 7, 8 sacks, 1, 8 and 10
DT Quentin Grossman – 38 tack and 8 assist; 7 sacks, 3 block, 5 hur, 1 qb kd
DT Colin Hover – 29 and 10, 3.5 sacks, 3 blocks, 6 hurries, 3 QB Kd. 3 Forced Fumbles

Velazquez was 5th in knockdowns in the league. Getting two DEs with 11 sacks? That’s just really strong. Getting 8 more sacks from Willis, spelling them is even better! Meanwhile I really like getting 7 sacks up the middle with Grossman. Our D Line was a huge improvement from before, and for once, was not an embarrassment of the team. I’m glad I locked up Butler after Camp. The undrafted FA is in the 3rd year in the league and 2nd as a starter.


MLB Irving Ward – 66 tack and 26 assist; 2 sacks, 5 hurries 1 QB kd, 1 INT, 7 pasdef, 2 FF
WLB Justin Houston – 44 and 12; 1 sack, 1 hurry, 4 pasdef
SLB Courtney Upshaw – 44 and 8; 2 sacks, 1 hurry, 3 pasdef


SS Jonathan Cyprien – 14 starts, 55 tackles and 26 assist; 2 sacks, 1 pick, 6 pasdef, 2FF
FS Tavon Wilson – 51 and 19 tackles; 1 blocked pass, 3 pick, 3 pasdef
CB Shane Hopkins – 5 Int, 6 pasdef
CB Darqueze Dennard, 6 starts, 3 pick, 1 def
CB Janoris Jenkins – 10 start, 1 pick, 6 pasdef
CB Bryan Meadows – 1 pick, 8 pasdef


Wow, again, not great years from the secondary. Here I thought I was making my team deep, but cutting the cord of the underperforming Kareem Jackson didn’t do that much more. Not good stuff folks. Shane Hopkins has been good, and I can’t fault green Meadows with I 1 pick and a team leading 8 passes defensed.


Blocking –

OG Marquis Satre – 48 KRB, 13 pancakes, 4 sacks allowed -3rd most KRB, the most pancackes
C Roger Pearson – 30 KRB, 2 pancakes, 6 sacks allowed
OG Mike Iupati – 13 starts, 20 KRB and 1 pancake and 5 sacks allowed
OT Cedric Goldhammer – 15 sacks, 1 pancake, 12 allowed
OT Meredith – 13 starts, 13 KRB and 2 pancakes and 6 sacks

FB Will Johnson – 16 KRB, 1 pancake – 0 sacks allowed.

Johnson was the highest KRB in the NFL among non-O Line folks. No TE, FB, RB, or WR had as many as he did. Satre again had a great season, and Pearson seems o have fully adjusted to his C role.
