The buzz: Bortles-Rodgers a top matchup

Apr 22, 2016 at 08:48 AM

JACKSONVILLE – It's a matchup Jaguars fans are anticipating.

As it turns out, others are looking forward to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers coming to EverBank Field in Week 1, too.

That game will feature a matchup between Rodgers – the Packers' perennial Pro Bowl quarterback – and Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles, and NFL.com recently called it one of the top three quarterback matchups of the 2016 regular season.

"Bortles is as entertaining as any quarterback in the league," NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal – who compiled the list along with Dan Hanzus – said in the video, which can be seen here.
