2017 - he's a rookie, Marvin won't play him
2018 - he only got what...4 games with Dalton?  He's a rookie
2019 - he's in a new system with a new OC, plus he's still a rookie
2020 - we need a new QB, can't judge Ross, he's kinda like a rookie
2021 - we have a new QB throwing him the ball, can't judge Ross

Ah, but I kid.  All I'll say is that we had better hope Taylor and his brilliant offensive mind likes John Ross, because we don't have Marvin and Lazor to blame anymore!

This is getting tiresome. Nobody is blaming anyone. It isn’t about anyone liking him. I truly believe Johns lack of confidence is his biggest problem. If that is the case then only he is to blame and it’s time for him to man up and start playing ball again. John needs to produce, plain and simple. He was given plenty of opportunities last season and while he scored some td’s, the consistency was nonexistent. Quite frankly, he stunk.

I certainly hope the new regime can get more out of him. Sometimes a fresh start can go a long way for a persons mental wellbeing. He will no doubt be given more opportunities in a new scheme this season. Maybe he will thrive, maybe he won’t. And while at this point I lean towards the latter, I really hope it’s the former.
