Well, looks like the "Flat Earth/Lawrence Is Improving" gang is back out in force. My Lord, you guys deserve this train wreck and I hope it continues for at least a couple more seasons just so you get everything you deserve. I've never seen such commitment to a belief despite overwhelming empirical evidence to the opposite conclusion.

The reality that you are denying is that Trevor is a very nice kid who looks more and more like a true life Shleprock. He's the guy who trips on the way to the mic at commencement, who gets the Time Zones confused and is late for the big interview by an hour, and lets out a nasty fart at dinner with his girlfriend's parents. He's just a natural born loser. And don't dream of comparing him to the guy we dumped to draft him. Not only are the stats wildly disproportionate, but anybody with a brain firing on at least one cylinder can see the personality difference. Minshew would steal Trevor's girl, defend him from bullies in the hallway, give him noogies after Science lab and still have Lawrence following him around asking to play Dungeons and Dragons. Lawrence has the competitive drive and charisma of the wax liner inside a cereal box.

But keep on believing, guys. He's Josh Allen any day now, a Superstar right after the next three or four game ending interceptions. Just be patient and keep on denying what actually happens on the field. I mean, how could all the talent evaluators and experts be wrong?
