Lol.

I had my doubts, but for some reason what my doubts actually were have been precieved incorrectly. I never once said he wasn't going to work out, my main gripe was again (for the millionth time) was that he had no business being compared to Luck or Manning as a prospect, because while he had plenty of impressive moments @ Clemson he had a boat loud of head scratching throws/decisions, he was bailed out quite often by having one of the all time leaders in college football history (ETN) who deserved more credit than Trevor did for the majority of Clemsons success and NFL talent such as Tee Higgins running wide open consistently. Something you wouldn't see on the 5 minute highlight video you watched, was how often he missed wide open WRs, how often he threw a ball 5 yards over their head (which continued on when he got here) how terrible errant his throws were when scrambling, why he always tended to scramble out to the left and throw across his body when there was a clean pocket etc etc the list goes on. 

My entire narrative was never to say he wouldn't be a good player, I just had reservations on HOW good he would be. While the media and this forum board seemed to think he was a dead lock to be a top 3-5 QB in the league in time.. I wasn't so sure. 


Theres a HUGE difference in saying he's going to be a bust, and I have been on record throwing that word out for guys I truely do not believe in. Zach Wilson being the most recent, but dating back to when we drafted Bortles I also made that claim. I also believe Anthony Richardson and Bryce Young will be major bust as well. So if they turn out well, you can quote this and tell me I'm wrong.


However, telling me i'm "Incorrect" on a take about his performances that are viewable on the internet for all to see is just ignorant. Now if you want to just admit that you've mistaken me for JaguarMVP who WAS calling him a bust, and that other bozo.. then I'll accept the apology.

And for the record, he improved mightily from week 9-18 last season, and it's a great sign of things to come hopefully. But he still ended the season with 25 TDs 8 ints and like 7 fumbles. Those are OK numbers, he's still far from elite.
