It seems that as long as Jameis Winston has moments of greatness that his biggest drawback will be overlooked by his fans. They don’t seem to understand that no matter what he does on the positive side, his flaw makes him untrustable.

You cannot put faith in a quarterback that you never know what you are going to get from him from game to game, moment to moment. Quarterback is the most important position on the field. Trust and faith aren’t qualities that you like to have in your quarterback. They are qualities that are a must.

I believe that the offensive line is a part of the reason he throws as many interceptions as he does. He won’t come out and say it, but I don’t believe he has much faith in them. Being sacked 47 times (league leader) in a season will do that to a quarterback.

So after saying that, I do believe if the O-Line is upgraded, it may cut back on his interception total. By how much though, is the question. I would like nothing more than for him to get the problem under control and be the player so many believe he can. I hold no ill-will towards the man but these are just the facts. Winston is the one giving me the facts, I don’t make them up.

I don’t consider my love of the team when reporting in most instances. I try to look at the team as an outsider would, thereby giving the most honest uninfluenced opinion that I can. My articles aren’t written the way they are because I’m a hater. I always pull for Jameis on game day.
