-Taking too long to make decisions forcing plays to fail or little to no gain
-Failing to lead receivers  or just down right throwing inaccurate balls
-Throwing rifle shots at receivers 3-5 yards away
-Taking too many chances down field when receivers underneath are wide open at times
-Atleast 2-3 balls every game that should be intercepted.  He throws atleast  1 or 2 right into the defenders hands
-At times will throw a beautiful pass 20+ yards downfield to throw a 5 yard pass 6 feet over the receivers head.  Inconsistent
-Fails on 3rd down.  Not hitting the hot receiver on blitzes or flat out missing throws. You don't become dead last on 3rd down completion percentage on accident

Yes he is a rookie but many of us expected much more.  He has the guts and he has the physical tools.  That being said, it hasn't been a sweet transition at all.  You can't blame everything wrong on "lousy coaching" or  "bad receivers." Any offense runs through the QB and right now ours is struggling big time.  He deserves his share of the blame.

Many of the issues you laid out can be fixed with better coaching and better receivers.

He's not taking too long to make decisions but instead, he's going through his entire progression with not a single receiver open.

I think the biggest issue here is that Trevor is putting too much pressure on himself to be perfect because he doesn't have confidence in his playmakers.
