He just needs to throw it away in that situation.  

But on the topic, the season as a whole, as the frustration and emotion of watching that game wear off, the fact remains, we could be 7-1.  The Philly game was the only game I thought we were overmatched.  Last year this team was totally incompetent, and this year, we are so close to winning.  

We're leaving our CBs one on one late in these games, with the lead, and we keep getting burned.  Whether Trevor ever pans out is a legitimate question, but still, we are so close to winning these games.  We need better CBs and we need for Trevor to stop making stupid mistakes.

And a coach who recognizes the limitations of his QB and doesn’t put him in those situations. Why would he call that play when 1st and goal on the 1st down with a RB who’s having a banner day? It was a stupid, stupid call. It’s not a question of whether Trevor should have thrown it away, it’s the glaring fact of that play should have not been called. 

Doug is trying to push Lawrence too hard and in the progress is throwing away games. Doug Pederson is laying a dog turd as a coach right now.
