Is Trevor Lawrence finally on his way after last year’s mess in Jacksonville? AlbertBreer writes about the difference Doug Pederson is making in the former No. 1 pick’s development
I included Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in a 27-and-under list on Twitter last week—he was one of seven in the AFC—and got a bunch of blowback for holding on the pre-draft evaluations that were out there on him. Fair enough. To this point, it’s O.K. to say he’s not in a class with Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Lamar Jackson, Patrick Mahomes and, once his suspension ends, Deshaun Watson.
Lawrence paused for a second—with the obvious implications back to last year— on the alignment piece, and then moved forward. “We had a good play on that one, actually a play we carried the last two weeks, we had it in last week as well,” Lawrence said. “We just changed the look. It’s a core concept that we run but just changing how we present it, having Christian release out of the backfield instead of from the slot. And then, he does a great job, it’s one of those choice routes, just making the right decision and I can trust him, whenever he breaks in or out or sits.
It seemed like everything was great for Jacksonville in what was supposed to be a revenge game for the Colts. Even better, it’s looking like Lawrence is on his way.And the flashpoint for how it went down was probably Amon-Ra St. Brown getting the ball on an end-around with 2:58 left in the third quarter. At that point, a 22-0 lead at the half had shrunk to 22-15, and there was plenty of room for Lions players who’ve been around for a while to expect the bottom to fall out against the Commanders.
In Week 2, they came closer to that—in a game that was basically the reverse of the Philly game, with the Lions as the team jumping all over the other team early on. And given where the Buccaneers are offensively, it’s a good thing the defense can carry the day, while the offense sorts through all of its issues, ones that go well beyond. Tampa has to get healthier up front on that side, to be sure, and keep an aging crew of receivers going, and Brady has to be better, too, because the only goal they have is the biggest one of all.
