The old handshake and a wink deal.  These billionaires have top notch accountants that could make those things happen quietly.

I'm asking him to be better than he was in 22/23.  25 TDs should imo, be his low number considering that in his year two he had first time receivers in Kirk, Engram and Jones..yet still got 25 TDs.  We need him to improve on that.  The Jags should finish better than 9-7 this year, and I think if he scores 30+ TDs, they will.    If he scores what he did this past season...they won't.

He certainly needs to play better but putting a number on it is odd.

What if he throws for 4,800 yards and 29 TDs? Leads the Jags to a 13-4 record. Would that not be elite enough for you?

Also, what if a rejuvenated short yardage running game has ETN and Tank chip in with 15-20 TDs on the ground?  That’s certainly going to take TD opportunities through the air away from Trevor.  Context matters.  Evaluating with your eyes > Evaluating the stat sheet.
