Blake Bortles And Leonard Fournette Were Emotional After Losing The AFC Championship To The Patriots

The Jaguars were so close. Seconds into the 4th quarter, they were up 10 points on the Patriots who had lost Rob Gronkowski and couldn’t get anything going against the NFL’s best defense.

Then, the Patriots did what the Patriots do. Tom Brady showed that his ageless regeneration powers apply to his injured thumb, and marched up and down the field with the help of Danny Amendola’s spectacular catches, and put up 14 unanswered points against Blake Bortles and company, who could only watch as their Super Bowl dreams faded away.

It led to tears from Bortles, who played admirably with an offense missing their best players, and Leonard Fournette, who in his rookie year showed that he’ll be a force to be reckoned with for years to come.

A few inches here, a few inches there, and Bortles is crying tears of joy. The entire year was filled with doubts about his abilities, but the last few months have shown him as one of the best QBs in the league despite losing Allen Robinson over the summer.

So, New England once again broke hearts with a drama reserved for Oscar bait. Their show of emotion is touching, but the Jags have a bright future. But then, it’s not like their tears were even near the best in NFL history. They still belong to Knowshown Moreno
