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.

No way bro, I've read your comments in several other threads.  You're not insane like the OZ guy.  I actually find myself agreeing with you on things.

Trevor Lawrence, if we're being honest, did over throw a couple passes in Detroit.  But he was not nearly as wild as he's been in September and October. 

I appreciate that you have seen improvment in the past few weeks.  But I honestly think the last 4 games Lawrence has played have been top 10 level QB play.  Go back and look at how great he played starting with the Raiders game.  He's clearly turned the table.  

Yes, he's missed a ball here or there in every game.  But so does every QB.  With that said, the last 4 games, he's looked like he's right there in the conversation with the 2nd tier of QBs in the league.

He's not near Mahomes, Burrow, and (the Good) Josh Allen.  
But he's right there with the rest of the tier 2 QBs
