notthatbluestuff Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 Looking forward to this clash - one of these two is about to add another W to their NFL career (uhhh, unless it's a tie or COVID wreaks havoc). If there's any value to be found in playing out the rest of the season for these teams, it's building up confidence in their embattled young QBs and attempting to end the year on some kind of high note.

HolmesPriest Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I think any QB pick in the draft for an Urban Meyer led Jaguars would look like a bad pick lol. Lawrence just needs a decent NFL coach behind him, and I am sure he will do just fine. In fact, maybe next year he is in the MVP discussion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notthatbluestuff Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 https://www.espn.co.uk/nfl/story/_/id/32916678/despite-rocky-seasons-jaguars-trevor-lawrence-jets-zach-wilson-2022-offers-brighter-future Quote Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson meet Sunday in a rare matchup -- only the fourth time in the common-draft era (since 1967) that quarterbacks drafted first and second overall are facing each other as rookies. Unlike the first three, Lawrence and Wilson are squaring off late in the season, meaning they have been banged around and scuffed up. They have experienced the hardships of rebuilding, as their respective teams -- the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets -- are a combined 5-23. No one said the franchise-savior business is easy. "It's a good reminder for y'all because we do tend to celebrate the anomalies like the [Justin] Herberts of the world," Jets coach Robert Saleh said. "But as far as rookie quarterbacks, this is usually what happens. They struggle." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Lawrence doesn't have a Marvin Harrison. RB? Nothing close to a Marshall Faulk. Yes, 2021 Jaguars did have one bona fide offensive threat: James Robinson, whom Baalke tried to replace with a first round pick. We mentioned coaching. Jim Mora was no Vince Lombardi until and unless we compare him to Urban Meyer. However, the biggest piece of the puzzle is always the Prime Mover. Without a competent evaluator at the helm we may never know whether we've acquired a generational talent [surrounded by hot garbage] or a bust (like Sam Bradford, JaMarcus Russell, Tim Couch, et al) . We have no reason to believe that conditions will improve markedly with or without a change at the top; the only assurance we have is that the next GM can't be any worse than the current one. As for the 1998 Colts, peering at the chasm between Trent Baalke and Hall of Fame General Manager Bill Polian is to glimpse the infinite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
