YMMV.

Lawrence had a coach that didn't help him fix the issues he already had. What you saw last year was 2020 Clemson Trevor Lawrence playing in the big leagues. Coaching can fix him certainly, but to try to pretend that bad play calling, or receivers dropping passes caused him to throw INTs 5 yards down the field into a linebackers hands with no WRs around is absolutely stupid.

This narrative that a whole group of people believe any of those things just because they disagree with you is getting old. In fact most people(actually everyone) recognizes that a lot of the mistakes made last year fall directly on Trevor. 

However most people also recognize that despite the mistakes he also showed a lot of things that were positive and left most of us feeling optimistic that he can evolve into the player that we thought he could be when we drafted him. 

Just because you choose to isolate the negative and allow that to shape how you feel about TL, like what said before, is your prerogative. To say coaching or the lack of talent that this team as whole didn’t contribute to any of Trevor’s struggles last year is just stupid. However, no one is arguing that the sole factor either.

Everyone on here knows you are willing die on that hill, so I don’t know why I’m even bothering with a response. But this belief that no one else saw the problems you saw is just plain wrong.
