But he is very talented and can become the franchise QB the Jags have lacked since Brunell. But he's getting zero help and support. It's going to be a long bumpy ride back to respectability.

I have to agree with the first statement especially.

He has a strong arm but inconsistent with accuracy.  Decision making has been much more unstable then I would like as well.  "The best prospect since Andrew Luck" was highly over exaggerated.  I would like to see what Lawrence can do with much more talent around him.  I said before the season that he already gets a built in mulligan this year. 

It is fair to say that Lawrence start has been much worse than 99% of the population envisioned.  Learn what he can this year and hopefully make major strides to year 2.  This offense is going to sputter the rest of the year.  Defense's know that we have no receiving threats so it's game over.  Lawrence has not shown enough consistent accuracy to run a good short game offense.

He was the best prospect since Joe Burrow, and that was all that mattered. We would be no better this year with any of the other QB in this past darft, and we may in fact be worse in the long term with many of the other QBs that were taken.

I wasn't expecting an All Pro out the gate. Anyone who did was delusional. My anticipation was for him to stay healthy and gain experience over the course of the season, master the playbook and be ready to begin contention in years 2 and 3. We saw early that there were rookie mistakes, and saw those reduce (that's good), but the offense has regressed over the past month (that's bad) and it's difficult to say whether it's on coaching, conservatism, injuries, Trevor's fear of making a mistake, or defenses being able to shut him or our scheme down.

If given the choice of keeping the QB or keeping the coaches, I know which one I'd go with. Regardless of anyone's expectation, he's the QB, let's put him in position to maximize his potential. I can't say they're doing that at this moment.

He'd be on IR or riding the bench behind Tavon Austin because Urbz is a fool.
