Because even tho most people on this board think I want Trevor to fail, I do not think he's going to. I think he will at the very least, be above average and I expect him to have a huge jump from year 1 to year 2 due to having a real offensive minded NFL headcoach, a much improved offensive line and hopefully a better lineup at WR. But mainly due to him having a year under his belt to learn from and get better. The defense, honestly should also be much better with the arrival of Aidan Hutchinson presumeably, a nice few additions from free agency and of course rookies Campbell and Cisco having more experience (and in Ciscos case, actually being put on the field) Our defense at times last year was abysmal but there were some flashes that made me think it might just be a few pieces and some experience away from being top half of the league good.

So you have changed your mind from seeing "no reason for hope" and from calling coaches and receivers "excuses for his terrible play." 

Interesting sea change.

It's crazy how narrow minded the people of this board can be. Let me ask you this. If we had 3 pro bowl WRs last year, you'd agree that the drops would likely have happened far less often right? At the same time, do you think that the interceptions Trevor threw directly into a linebackers hands, or passes that soared over his WRs heads (uncatchable) would have changed based on the WRs? Ofcourse not. 

Obviously having better players and play calling will help anybody play better, it does not excuse the mistakes he made. I'd imagine he'd be the first to tell you he had plenty of them.
