I thought he could be good in 2015, but that was because I was attributing ability to him that was actually mostly from Hurns and Robinson, and placing a lot of blame for losing on coach sprinkles.

Looking back on it he was a likeable QB, and a fun guy to root for, but not an alpha QB. Trevor is an alpha, when the Jaguars are behind the other team is scared of what he's going to do. In the past when we were behind the team was scared of what our own quarterback was going to do.

Lawrence is light years better than Blake, but Blake wasn't put into an RPO heavy offense that would've maximized his athletic skills either. If the Boat was playing in Tennessee instead of Tammyhill that team would've been really good for a long time.

I agree, they tried to force Blake into a pocket passer that he just wasn't. He was always better on the move. Hell he threw a tighter spiral while rolling out than he ever did with a clean pocket lol I think he would have done well with an OC/HC who was a creative offensive type. Pederson would have maximized him. Reid, McVay, Shanahan, McDaniel all would have had him performing better than he did here.
