Bortles and Trevor basically even in two categories (0.2 difference in those), threw only 2 more touchdowns, rushed a bit better although Trevor scored, and was worse in all other categories, and he played 14 games as (technically 13.5).
Do you even think before you post?
You're putting words in my mouth. I wasn't the one who made a dumb claim that Trevor is playing like Gabbert. The evidence speaks that he is having a better rookie year then both Bortles and Gabbert, with an arguably dead even or worse roster situation. Bortles had Hurns and Robinson his first year. Jones maybe sniff's Hurns jock, but not by much. Doesn't mean I am happy, just showing trolls are gonna troll. I could post twenty different QB's who had inconsistent or downright bad rookie years and went on to have a good career, and trolls just handwave it. This [Gabbert / Bortles vs. Lawrence] was their chosen metric, not mine.
Also he left out somehthing. Bortles 11 Tds in 13 games started. Lawrence with 9 tds in 15 games started. Hmmm

If so, he's exactly what I think he is (and most likely will be as a rookie): up and down.That goes both ways buddy. Some have crowned Lawrence a hall of famer as soon as we drafted him. You know what will shut people like me up? Good play on the field. Lets see a QB who is a franchise guy and play at a somewhat high level. For the fact that he has regressed his rookie year is a huge red flag. I haven't seen anyone claiming he is a bust yet but after this year everyone should have some doubts.
Then again, how do you break down that to throws that truly weren't accurate, throws that hit the receiver in the hands, or throws where the WR ran the wrong route (e.g. the Tennessee debacle)
I agree in a sense that making a judgement call either way is premature (i.e. we don't exactly what he will be; I see positive signs but hey, I'm not a pro).
But some in this thread have already labeled him, and no amount of reasoning will get them to wait and see.
Again, your reading comprehension is poor. I did mention it (bolded).
