Whatever your opinion on or hopes for Lawrence, the contract he just signed says he isn't sitting and he isn't going anywhere for a few years, so the other issues on the roster are going to get addressed before his situation does by the coach or ownership. There are issues all over the roster and within the coaching staff, none of which by themselves necessarily put you in the conversation for worst team in the league as we are, but collectively they've done just that. Much of the issues are still fixable this year in my opinion. Some of it is lack of rapport which will resolve itself in time. Some of it is injury, which will resolve itself in time. Some of it is play calling which remains to be seen if it will resolve it self without significant change. There have been some excellent play calls from time to time, it's not all bad or by itself bad enough to explain all of our misfortunes this year. Lawrence is not playing well enough. He has some good throws, he has some bad throws which he should be allowed to throw from time to time as all QBs do, but some of his bad ones have been egregious and with so many other errors going on around him we can't afford any margin for error. Had we won today, I think people forget about the couple of overthrown TD opportunities pretty quickly. They stick out like a sore thumb in a loss though. The bottom line is we should be at least 2-2 right now and we've given 2 games away and probably gave the game against the browns away as well. Very deflating loss coming off an embarrassing loss on national TV. Need to come out swinging against the clots.
