A lot of us said that after the Denver game. 
But CJB said we should draft a new QB next year.  That's bonkers and it will always be bonkers, even if Trevor regresses again. It's not as if we've got this window where we have great players at other positions and just need a QB.  We have mediocre players at other positions, and we needed to, and still need to, see if Trevor becomes a guy that makes them all look better than they are.  Turns out Trevor is.  But even if he wasn't we would keep him thru 2023.

BRUH I NEVER SAID THAT L0L

I can't find the thread but I remember the conversation very well. The thread topic was something like "if we have the 1st overall pick in 2023 do we look at qbs"

My response was something like: If Trevor plays as bad or worse than he did in 2021 (12 td 17 ints) and is the main reason we suck and shows no signs of progression then I wouldn't be opposed to taking the Cardinals approach when they dumped Rosen early on for Murray. 

Which ofcourse in classic Duvalpride MB fashion, people immediately tried to say I was comparing Lawrence to Rosen when I wasn't. Just that if it was obvious he wasn't getting better by the end of year 2 if their is a guy worthy of the #1 pick it wouldn't be a bad idea to test the waters. 


This was a HYPOTHETICAL scenario in which Trevor was worse than his rookie year, showed no progress and was the main reason we had the #1 pick, WHICH I ALSO SAID THAT I HIGHLY DOUBT HE WOULDN'T BE BETTER THAN HE WAS IN 2021, I said I expect him to have 22 TD 15 turnovers (which isn't really far off from what he's done this year including fumbles)


Y'all need to stop reaching so damn hard.

Word of advice for you Chrisboy. Just do not care what they say about you. They are pounding their chest and thats perfectly fine. Just take the L and move on. By responding to them you are just feeding the trolls. Back to footabll.

Lawrence has all the tools. The future is bright for the team. The one issue is when it comes to giving him his pay day. I feel far too often you get crazy contract deals that pay the QB but hamper the rest of the team.  Green bay and Rodgers is an example. Just ask Denver how they feel about paying Russell Wilson $200 million dollar.  Luckily we have a few years to worry about that. The window to win is now. I hope this season jump starts this team.
