By getting caught up on the fumble piece, you're missing the point, which is that JT is a good player who could be great if he was willing to put in the effort. The improved fumble rate even plays into that argument. He got better at a skill when he tried to improve it. So why can't he get better at pass pro or receiving? I feel like the answer is lack of effort, especially with the pass pro, because RB pass pro is pretty much all about effort. It's a learned skill, not an ability which a player can cover a lack of technique up with athletic gifts.

You're preaching to the choir on JT's receiving and pass pro. In fact I'm of the opinion that he has actually regressed as a receiver. Remember when we'd all be pissed off at Wentz for not throwing to JT more?
But I do like to call out BS when I see it, and your insistence that JT has fumbling issues is BS as we've objectively proven.

I have plenty of faults, but there’s no point in me talking about them to anyone but my therapist. Better to just fix them in every other case.

I'm no therapist, but I'm pretty sure that admitting when you're wrong is healthy for you.
