JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Blaine Gabbert is comfortable enough with himself to handle all the criticism.
So go ahead, pile it on.
Talk about his pocket presence and his errant passes. Ask about his confidence and his receivers. Blame him for the losses and the coaching change.
Jacksonville's laid-back rookie quarterback doesn't really seem to care.
He says he expects to take the brunt of the criticism. He says that's how it should be, since quarterbacks are typically the face of the franchise and that "the ball goes through us on every play."
He insists Saturday there have been positives. If so, they have been hard to see given that the Jaguars (4-10) rank last in the NFL in total offense and have scored 14 or less points in 10 of 14 games.
