Lamar Jackson

Hey, anybody worried that with our offensive style of play that Lamar Jackson could get hurt? Look what happened to RG3 with the Redskins.

Jackson has already gotten a scare against Kansas City this year. ...Does anyone have the same sentiment, that we have to save our QB from a brutal NFL by continuing to develop his passing skills.
He took that injury in the pocket fam

I just want to know why we did not bring Flacco out to open the second half.

Just like a few years ago with the wildcat nonsense going on around the league, the jig is up on Lamar. Teams now know how to shut him down, so until (if) he ever learns how to play QB and throw the ball, he is nowhere near ready for the big time.

To be fair to Lamar, he cleaned up his throwing problems late in the game. A bit too late but still he cleaned it up then.

Can’t wait for him to get a full offseason in with the starters. Please invest in the offensive line, specifically the interior. Good lord. At least give the kid a chance to throw

Because they went into prevent defense.
Still think we would have won had we put Joe in atleast at the blocked punt but I could be wrong oh well it's obvious Lamar is our QB for the next few years atleast if he develops then a long time but I'm honestly not even mad we were not winning the super bowl with a rookie QB it just doesn't happen

Lamar looks way more promising then flacco did in his rookie

It changes the game the schemes Lamar up our oline dursnt just go to shit they played us once they schemed us up simple as that a different QB changes the way they have to play

eh not really. Those boys were simply getting beat off the snap left and right. Flacco would have Melvin Ingram in his lap every other play.

Lamar made two ( off the top of my head) brilliant plays near the end. The scramble and throw on fourth down was clutch, calm and big time. The pin point throw over James to Dixon was Russel Wilsony, factoring in the escape.

I'm happy with Lamar. This kid has a promising future. I hope we bring him a good OC

Yup. I can’t wait for the Ravens to let him loose next season (hopefully with a better LG and C).

Yup. Or promote someone. I just don’t see any kind of cirmustance where Marty is back. All you have to do is look at the tape of this game and realize it’s time to move on.

It was awesome but unfortunately still doesn’t come anywhere close to balancing out his poor performance.

Yes the Oline was horrible but it got worse as the game went on, it wasn’t too bad in the first half. Lamar missed a ton of reads, held the ball too long, fumbled our dreams away, made poor throws, etc

He’s got a lot to learn. For our sake, I hope he gets it together.

You realize what organization you’re talking about right? Marty will be back.

Lamar has a problem with holding onto the football too long. He looks down field a lot and we applaud him for that but it has caused him to take sacks he doesn’t need to take. He needs to get some serious work in the offseason and start like tomorrow working on his throwing.
