Lawrence turned me completely off of him when he expressed his lack of a desire to be great. That football was just a job to him. 

fug that. 

Yeah that flew under the radar for such an entitled comment to make. There were literally hundreds of QB's busting their ass around the country the same year hoping for that draft pick and he acted like he could take it or leave it. Zach Wilson was another who didn't get prodded at over his leadership/character at all and it seems like everyone on the team and staff in NY can't stand the guy.

I was never super high on Lawrence like everyone else. Count me as someone who has liked Stroud more. 

I honestly wasn't super high on Lawrence either. Don't get me wrong, I thought he was a good prospect and a worthy #1 overall pick but I didn't get the hype about him being the generational type prospect that he was touted to be by most of the media.

He impressed me in the 2nd half against the Chargers in the playoffs this year. After having quite possibly the worst half I've ever seen a QB play in the 1st half (and honestly that's not an exaggeration) he bounced back big time in the 2nd half and led the Jags to (an admittedly undeserved) win. That game showed me the guy is gonna make it.

I only remember him saying football doesn’t define who he is as a person. A completely different thing.

This. You guys read into things what you want, which isn’t out of the normal. 
 

His comment was based on him having confidence in himself as a person outside of football. That if he lost football today, he would be fine because of his faith and knows life has more to offer than just football. I guess people can spin anything negatively… lol

My opinion was from watching the interview in which he actually said what he said.  

No spin. 

I don't base opinions off bullshit. I don't put spin on things. I'm a shoot from the hip, don't sugar coat it.

      I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      By frankw · Posted

      Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
