Tell me about Trevor Lawrence

[vlad]

Just looking for zoners views on him. I never watch college football and haven’t followed his pro career other than urban being a disaster and pederson seemingly being a really good coach.

The things I’ve seen is he seems incredibly accurate but that’s why i rely on all of you - thx.

He has been getting better as the season has progressed. Jaguars are not a good team but they flash at times.

I don’t think Trevor is on the level of Burrow and Herbert as young quarterbacks but he is on that next tier. Lawrence will test Bland and Joseph early and often tomorrow.

 

[nightrain]

From what I remember, he is not afraid to hold the ball and wait for the big play to open up. May not be a great strategy vs. the Cowboys.

Saw this game in a bar, and it convinced me that Lawrence is the real deal.



2:10-3:30 is all one drive. 2 minute drill, do or die.

The too-long, didn't watch version is that he has an absolute monster arm and is unafraid to take risks. Lawrence is aggressive and has the talent to cash in any throw.

His development has been in speeding up his processing... his isn't holding on to the ball as long, and he is getting better at figuring out which downfield gambles to take.

Lawrence's best comparison is probably Justin Herbert, as an absolute cyborg physically who put it together pretty quickly mentally. He's on that Herbert, Josh Allen tier IMO and is anyone's definition of an elite QB.

Jaguars are the AFC version of the Lions. Look really good at times and show flash like you said but then give you a lot of bad games.

Lately, he's been terrific, but not sure he'll have enough time tomorrow to throw.

Lucky for him, he changed that mid-season and is getting it out.
The result has been the fewest sacks in the last 5 games. Then again, he wasn't facing Dallas.
The change in coaches has helped him a ton, but he has a ways to go.
Superior talent though

But I just read that he's questionable to play tomorrow, as he's been playing with a foot injury

Questionable is the new probable for the NFL injury reports.

Getting the ball out so much quicker now.

I bet he wishes he had the Vikings or Bengals (or Cowboys, for that matter) weapons..
He's playing with mostly no-names.

I compared his trajectory to Josh Allen's in another thread. Horrible rookie year, much improved but still unbalanced 2nd year. I think he blows up year 3 like Allen did

 

[RJ_MacReady]

He's tall. He also has long blonde hair. He's probably going to be made to look like Joe Montana tomorrow because I sense our team is high on the smell of their own farts again.

 

[Skynet]

He is a libra

 

[DFWJC]

Mentioned this in another thread....he has a 5 game streak of no interceptions but I think the Cowboys end that streak in week 6

Light just clicked on for Lawrence, just in time to play us.

 

[stinkface]

He is getting better every game. Has tons of arm talent and he is a long strider who can really eat up ground if he breaks the line of scrimmage. He has a chance to be very very good. Next year if he keeps it together he has a chance to be top 5. He doesn't process as quickly as Joey B in Cincinnati at this point in his career. If he ever does watch out.

 

[terra]

The UM disaster might have set him back; but it also might have been a long term benefit for him. He had been a Golden Boy with pretty much everything going his way until then.
Getting kicked around by both the media and fans for things that were not his fault seems to have matured him a lot over the way he had acted in college.
It will be interesting to see him next year if the team around him gets more talented; the coaching seems to be there.

 

[Jipper]

That boy good

 

[Captain-Crash]

Talented

 

[CouchCoach]

He was the next P. Manning and when he took over at Clemson had everything any QB would need, great run game, receivers and defense and when he went to JAX had very little of that plus coaching that wasn't great and they really screwed up bringing in that tool Meyer.

He's as accurate as Allen, Burrow, Herbert and Mahomes and he is surprisingly athletic when he needs to be. Getting Pederson as his HC was the best thing to happen to him since he left Clemson. He is going to have a very good and long career in the NFL.
