It was after London...  We should have won that game, and Trevor Lawrence was the main reason.  I realized, it was partly my fault for using that stupid nick name where you use the first letter of his first name and then the first 3 letters of his last name.

I told myself, If I'm going to be a better fan, I need to respect the QB.  Since then, I've only called him only by his given name.  Trevor Lawrence. 

After all, how can I expect a true professional QB if I'm not going to refer to him professionally.

If you didn't feel this way after London, you're lying to yourself.  But!  I didn't lose faith where I gave up.  It was just time to give the team some tough love.  And you know, the rumors are that the team gave Trevor a tough speech too.  This game, this embarrasment to Trevor was his turning point.

And then, Trevor became the leader and was able to call out the team in Detriot.

But London,  London was the game where Trevor Lawrence was held accountable.  And instead of flinching or denying his accountability.  He accepted it and did something about it!

You have to respect a man like him.  I hope he never loses this as he gains more and more success.

Where are you hearing this?  Gotta be honest, it sounds made up.  Not necessarily saying you’re making it up which is why I’m curious where you heard it.  Maybe it was out there and I missed it.  Regardless, there were several players responsible for different losses this year, so for anyone on the team to have had a talking to to Lawrence specifically as you suggest and for that to now be credited as the reason for the turn around in this team’s fortunes has me chuckling over here.
