But let's just say that 14 points in an offense thats designed around him isnt enough and there's zero excuse regardless of circumstances he is dealing with. But I'm one of the few that holds the QB position much more accountability than most on here so again I'll shut up for now.

14 points by the offense was a bad showing.  But this wasn't the Houston game, or the Philly Game, or even the Bronco Game, where Trevor Lawrence made crucial mistakes that one could point to and say, if but for Trevor's innacuracy, or Trevor's interceptions, we'd have won.

No.  Trevor Lawrence willed this offense to 14 points.  The team around Lawrence (besides Kirk) all wallked into Detroit, listened to the Star Spangled Banner, ran out on the field, and then pissed down their legs like a bunch of scared new born puppies realizing they weren't athletes enough to compete.

All this to say, it's fine to criticize Lawrence when he was being inconsistent.  But for the past 4 games, he's be the best player on the team.  Hell, he's been the best player in the AFC South over the last 4 games.  Dude looks like he's figured it out.

But a QB needs players (Zay Jones, Engram, ETN) not to drop/fumble the ball at crucial times.  A QB also needs his defense to force a few punts.  You know...  It's a team sport and all...

Don't confuse me with the Oz guy, my points were never "he's good, or he's bad, or he's a bust or he's elite" My issues for the first season and a half with Lawrence was that I saw very little improvement with the same issues I saw in college. I wasn't seeing much change in regards to his inconsistent accuracy, he was still sailing balls over WRs heads and he crumbled when the game was close. He's shown improvement the past few weeks tho.
