“You couldn’t write a better script to win a game like that tonight, so it makes it more special, but don’t want to do that again,” Lawrence said, via ESPN. “Got to take care of the ball. That’s where it starts.”
A second year QB throws 4 interception in the first half. No pouting, no quitting just balling in the second half! Straight cooking at an elite level. Trevor Lawrence brother you did that!! Defense stepped up, coaches stayed locked in and you flat out delivered!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Lawrence added: “We said in the locker room that’s kind of how our season’s going. We’re never out of the fight…. I’m kind of speechless, honestly, just to see what belief can do and to see when a team believes in each other what you can accomplish.
