LESS THAN 24 HOURS AND WE WILL FEEL FREEDOM
>Lawrence has been heavily criticized this season for not doing more to elevate the team and making too many poor plays in crunch time, but when he was out with a shoulder injury on Sunday, we got to see what the offense looks like with another quarterback under center … and it was one of the worst games in the Jaguars’ 29-year existence. Jones threw two interceptions, the offense gained just 143 yards, and Jacksonville lost 12-7. Taylor’s scheme is a difficult one to play in, especially if it’s not being coached well. And like Stroud, Lawrence has been able to mask only so many of his team’s issues.
…
>Williams isn’t alone. We’ve seen Stroud’s decision-making and accuracy go to shit in Houston’s disjointed offense. Lawrence has developed timing and accuracy issues playing in Jacksonville’s disorganized passing game. And those are just the quarterbacks we can confidently say are above average. There are also unproven guys like Richardson, Drake Maye, and Bo Nix who are struggling to find consistency in less-than-ideal setups. And who knows how failed quarterbacks like Jones, Wilson, or Pickett may have turned out had they landed in situations that didn’t highlight their worst passing traits? Plenty of teams have shown us how to irreparably break a young quarterback. Williams and the Bears still have time to turn things around—but they can’t afford to keep making the same missteps going forward.
Is the author considered knowledgeable? Because these quotes are describing what i think about Lawrence (well without me knowing the exact mechanics behind, but the conclusions are the same).
And the second qoute describes my biggest fear of Lawrence breaking beyond repair – thats the ONLY reason im reluctant to agree with the opinion of letting the current staff finish the season. I mean, it is clearly over, so result-wise it really makes no difference, but for months i cant help the feeling that every week he spends with this staff is one step back in his gameplay because of the bad habits and reflexes that are he is “learning” – and the point of no return is rapidly approaching…
