But teams are turning the pressure up to 11 because they know that TLaw is not able to make his decisions fast enough in tight windows.  TLaw's development need is 100% before the ball is snapped.  He's in shotgun so often because he can't pick the play under center.  Shotgun gives him three extra steps to see what develops, but then it gives the defense less to worry about, particularly from the running game.

While I don’t disagree with everything you’re saying, teams are turning up the blitz because none of the Jags receivers can beat 1 on 1 coverage. If the Jags had a Tyreek Hill type, teams wouldn’t be able to blitz as often for fear of getting beat deep. There isn’t a single Jags receiver that threatens the deep ball. Not one.

It’s an overall mess with blame placed on everyone, Trevor included. However I’m quick to not place blame on a rookie QB with the worst HC, a bad OC and the worst supporting cast in the NFL (outside of the Lions).
