Rookie receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter will draw more casual fans to turn on Jaguars games, but the actual story of the team still revolves around quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Whatever goodwill Lawrence still had going into last season evaporated after his awful start, and now he needs to show that he can once again lead an efficient offense, as he did a few years ago.
Lawrence took a big step back in his accuracy, his feel for pressure, and his ability to create out of structure. New head coach Liam Coen did an excellent job of improving each of those things with Baker Mayfield in Tampa Bay last season, and Mayfield is a much less physically gifted passer than Lawrence. If we see similar improvements from Lawrence this season, I might be willing to buy back in on the Jags.
