Jetstream Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Why is it generally ok to slander the Jets when it comes to Trevor Lawrence with many media types coming out publicly to pile onto the Jets saying Trevor should never come here. But all will be ok with Trevor going to the Jags? Why would it not be possible that Trevor could say he doesn't want to go to Jacksonville? We can hold out hope, can't we 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JXN_JET Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I dont get the slander. MSN already has a story about how TL missed a bullet because the Jags have Shenault and Clark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsfan80 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Jacksonville is a better fit for Lawrence. SEC country (he played HS ball in Georgia) and a lower profile environment. If I'm TL I'm celebrating today. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby2 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 This thought actually came into my mind. Jax has been inept for 20 years but being close to home and small town, that prob carry’s a lot of weight. Nyc is a diffferent animal, especially for people who didn’t grow up in big cities.

They have also had a tad more success than the Jets the past couple of years and are not mocked by the National media’s as much as the Jets have been.

(Butt fumble anyone) Exactly. Other things come into factor, does he want to stay near his family, does he like cold or warmer weather. Everyone said he could pull an Eli. What if he pulls an Eli to play in NY? Far fetched but just saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunkoBenny Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 I simply cannot see him refusing to play for Jacksonville (not saying they're some elite franchise with a storied history) as they've already fired their GM and I doubt the owner keeps their head coach once the season ends, so the opening will be an attractive one. They have a ton of draft capital to build around him and they seem to have found something in rookie rb James Robinson, and as an added bonus no state income tax and closer to his GA home. I know it may be tough for some to understand but not everyone likes and want to live in NY/area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rangers9 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Jacksonville is a small time market. And the Jets are the big Apple. If Trevor wanted to be a star like Joe Willie was he’d choose the Jets. If he doesn’t and just wants to be a football player without the glimmer choose Jax.
