Take it down a notch, dude. Yes, he played subpar today - anyone with a working brain can see that. ETN is the star today and was the primary reason we were winning late in the game. The Eagles game is completely on Trevor even if the weather was a hurricane (gotta take care of the ball in all situations, not just some). 

However, when your offense scores late in the game to take the lead, the defense is expected to hold that lead, especially when you’re playing an offense that’s ranked near the bottom of the league in scoring. The primary reason we lost the game is because our secondary couldn’t cover even their slot receivers downfield. This happened against Washington and Indy (2nd time) as well. That’s 3 wins we could’ve had if they had kept things in front of them.

That said, it's perfectly ok to put this one on Trevor's shoulders. Should the D have given up that TD? No. Probably not, but 21 is average in the league. Throwing 2 crucial INTs cost us more than that one TD.

But the TD at the end cost us the game. Up until that time, we had scored enough to win.  I don't understand what is so hard to understand about that.

Sure they are giving up leads late but let's no forget that they have kept the offense in the lead for most of the game. The TOP is usually stacked against them.

The offense isn't scoring enough and disappears every week around the same point. The QB makes a lot of people better on both sides of the ball. If the Jags won't disappear after the scripted plays, then maybe the defense wouldn't have to play the rest of the game without a break.

There are issues on both sides of the ball but the biggest and most important is the QB. He is mentally broken and that can't easily be repaired. Generally you have it or you don't. He hasn't lost much and him being the fault hasn't really happened until he got into the NFL. Unless the bye week helps him, he may play himself to a spot on the bench and a seat behind the next #1 QB drafted for the Jags.

I mean this Offense just gave them nearly a full quarter of straight rest just 2 weeks ago vs the colts and they still blew it. Let Matt Ryan (who got benched a week later btw) go 70 yards on 11 plays in the final 2 minutes after sitting on the sideline for 10 minutes of game time. They stink just as bad when they're rested.
