Feels written in the stars for Dalton to send the Bengals to 0-4 next week and end their season.

So far I'm feeling pretty good about my "Jayden Daniels is the best QB in the Draft" prediction. Beast mode tonight. He wins tonight's LSU battle.

What was the graphic? Last 16 possessions 7 TD, 7FG and 2 QB Kneel - or something like that?

He also has an energy to him. You don’t get that vibe from Williams.

Lawrence is lucky he's playing in Jacksonville ... he'd have been ripped to pieces already in a bigger market. Not living up to the hype at all, and he's lucky Watson is saving him from the "worst contract" title.

And man, am I happy for Terry McLaurin. No one deserves a talented QB like him ... I mean, this is as bad as it was for Hopkins in Houston:

He is more Daniel Jones than Andrew Luck.

You would love to see some of these guy just rip it up, but he is just so meh.

Trevor Lawrence was having the “generational” label slapped on him long before it seemed to be applicable but what do I know. I never understood the hype in college and his professional production doesn’t look to be anything better than meh. Perhaps it’s the team as the jags are a career graveyard but we’ll never know.

I cannot claim to be any type of scouting genius though I also never understood the Andrew Luck hype, I just happened to fall bass ackwards into being right this time. Still a W though.

Minshew is from that class and in most categories is statistically superior to Lawrence since they were drafted which should be horrifying for Jags fans as Minshew is not that good.

I feel like you haven't watched much of Williams. Pretty bold to make a statement after 3 games

I watched loads of Williams at both Oklahoma and USC. Another one where the “generational” label seemed premature. He was essentially a Mahomes type when we all decided a Mahomes type was the way to win. Let’s see if that translates to NFL success. No sense in making grand declarations 3 games into a season, the Daniels slobjobs after one good game are silly enough. You’re all lucky JJ isn’t out there looking amazing in the O’Connell system because you’d never stop hearing about it. You really think Sam Darnold suddenly became good?

Lawrence seems to be regressing a bit. The tools and skills are still evident - the decision making has not gotten better.

His second season was pretty strong, but the last 7 games or so have been poor.

Last Year through the first 12 games.

Completion %: 68%
Yards: 3004 ( 250 per game)
TDs: 14
Ints: 7
Sacks: 27 (2.25 per game)

Really the biggest issue was touchdown passes. But since then in the last 7 games he's been bad.

Completion: 57%
Yards: 1572 (224 per game)
TDs: 9
INTs: 8
Sacks: 19 (2.7 per game)

I'd be trying a new coach before I'd be writing off Lawrence though TBH. Lawrence had a pretty good second season in 2022, and has gotten worse with time, when that happens I look more at the coaching staff and what scheme's they are playing and gameplans first.

Sam Darnold was ruined by two terrible franchises. He won't be able to keep going like this, but he's always had talent. Not his fault he was drafted by a clueless franchise and then traded to another one. First time he's put into a situation to succeed now.
