I still say the "generational" tag is the biggest issue with this discussion. There are a number of people who are merely stating that lawrence isn't the generational qb but still think he is our franchise guy. And those people get lumped in with those who argue he sucks and we should move on... which is crazy.

I know we all wanted him to be the next Elway, Brady, Manning, etc.... and he isn't that. But he is good enough to lead us to the playoffs and win games in the postseason. And he just turned 24. He doesn't appear to be good enough yet to elevate a bad team around him. But he also doesn't need elite players to put up numbers and win games.

I do think this season is spiraling around him but much of it isn't on him. I know the numbers have been said but they are worth repeating. 3rd worst oline per pff before the bucs game. Bottom of the league in rushing epa. Most epa lost due to drops. Dead last in epa on wr te screens. Literally the only thing we do well is when lawrence throws down the field. Top 10 passing team in epa when you exclude the screens. Of all the problems we have had on offense there are a number of things you should point to before qb. Oline, coaching, play calling. player acquisition, etc...
