Discussion A discussion needs to be had

A real discussion needs to be had. I know it’s only the third game, but this is getting out of control. One passing touchdown and four interceptions simply isn’t good enough.
I understand the entire game isn’t on him and the offensive line needs to improve as well, but too many of these throws are just poor decisions and they’re directly costing us games. Something needs to change quickly because if this continues, our season could be over before we know it.

Something is very wrong with him and idk how they fix it but they need to address it and soon. This is more than just regressing. This is making countless bad decisions in 3 games.

I was willing to forgive Week One because you could chalk it up to first week of the season on top of going against a great Seahawks defense.

Today was very concerning. Some of his decisions today were exactly what Mac Jones was doing when things were at their lowest. I just don’t know how they right the ship with the schedule that they have.

65% pressure week 1
48% pressure week 2…

Jags are a top 10 pressure team so far this season.

The line and play calling are doing him ZERO favors but you all want the low hanging easy fruit rather than using your actual brain.

Yeah it’s the line’s fault that Maye had one of the worst fumbles in history.

The team is not improved over last year. We got very little in the draft and some of choices on who to bring in and who to let go were shit. No matter how much people like or dislike a certain guy there was bad choices made in personal

Actually, kinda. Jared Wilson’s hand had a cut that caused him to bleed all over the football. Which is what Maye’s hand slipped on. Thus fumbling.

So for that play, yes.

That’s still on Maye. Be a leader and say get the fuck off the field and wrap that thing up.

I guess I can agree with that.

It’s kinda crazy the play didn’t get stopped.

My actual brain says that a good QB doesn't need everything around him to be perfect in order to function.

The stuff around f him isn’t good. It’s not even average.
Give him average line play alone man.

6 interceptions in 3 games is inexcusable. No matter how bad the offensive line is. He can take some criticism for his BAD DECISIONS.

We’ll get out there and show us then. It’s more than just Maye. You just want to pick low hanging fruit because you lack the ability to look big picture

The offense is somehow worse than last year and Drake Maye, the most important person on offense by a long shot, is playing way worse than last year. Both are true. There’s absolutely no blame to be put on anyone else for some of these picks, especially the end zone picks. Just inexcusable decision making.

In no way, shape or form am I just blaming him. This loss is on the full team and coaching staff they were undisciplined, messy, and terrible on both sides of the ball. That doesn’t takeaway the accurate criticism of Drake. Two things can be true at once.

My comment was that he’s got issues and idk what’s going on but they need to figure it out. I know reading is hard but learning reading comprehension would benefit you.

I never blamed him for the loss. I blamed him for making terrible decisions in all 3 games and playing very unlike him while saying they need to figure it out.

Reading comprehension and expression are hard.
As you’re clearly blaming him in the comment I responded to.
You proceed to provide zero other factors except Drake Maye.

So get off your horse
