I know you like facts/stats NYC, can you tell me a time where Trevor threw for 3 or more TDs without throwing a pick.. or better yet, without throwing at least 2-3 picks?


I'll wait.

Your question here has nothing at all to do with whether injuries affected his performance this year. 

They did. 

Without doubt. 

You can cherry pick whatever stats you want. He clearly struggled after the ankle, concussion and shoulder more than he did before those injuries. I don't have a single ounce of doubt about that and I'm also very disappointed in his mistakes this year on the whole despite the injuries. 

You can be critical of his play without trying to wipe away the reality of playing hurt from the equation.

This is the way I currently feel about Trevor's performance this season. These injuries hurt him both physically and mentally during the 2nd half of the season. No excuses for the dumb fumbles and interceptions. He obviously played like a below average quarterback following these injuries. His mechanics and judgement were clearly worse, however, and this does go back to the injuries. Lawrence was able to overcome the terrible offensive line last season due to his ability to thrown on the run or simply to scramble for rushing yards. His injuries did not allow that to happen this season and the loss of Kirk and Zay Jones for several weeks didn't help either!

I may be wrong about Lawrence, but he is the least of my worries as long as the new general manager (I beg you, Shad) addresses the offensive line. Baalke is not one to admit his mistakes and I don't see this changing in the future. If Khan maintains the status quo, our fans are just going to get more heartache and Lawrence will never become the "generational quarterback" many predicted after the Jags drafted him.
