Ranking top 6 quarterbacks in Jaguars history
It's a brief history, but the Jaguars have had some solid quarterbacks come through Jacksonville

2. David Garrard
This very well could be controversial, seeing as though David Garrard sits 1,643 yards behind Bortles on the all-time passing list. But, Garrard's record as the Jaguars' starter (39-37) was far better than Bortles'.
In nine seasons with the Jaguars, it wasn't until about halfway through where he was able to start the majority of a season. In 2006, he started 10 games, going 5-5. The following season in 2007, he went 9-3 as a starter and ended with a league-low interception percentage at just 0.9 percent. In 12 games, Garrard threw for 2,509 yards, 18 touchdowns and just three interceptions.
The following year, Garrard would go on to enjoy a career year in yardage, throwing for 3,620 yards to go along with 15 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Then, in 2009 Garrard was voted to the Pro Bowl despite Jacksonville finishing 7-9. He threw for 3,597 yards, 15 touchdowns and 10 picks that season.
As the third-highest passer all-time in Jaguars history, Garrard amassed 16,003 yards, 89 touchdowns and 54 interceptions over his nine years.
