Ravens room has bigger names, I do think a lot of the Bills players are younger and are very underrated. They don't have an insane player in their receiving room, but they do have solid WRs across the board with different skill sets. Two solid tight ends and their running back room is good. Top 5 o-line in the league. Bills and Ravens defense are about the same in rankings as of now so that's a wash.

The Ravens have had to overcome the o-line being a massive weakness against teams like the Raiders, Steelers, and Chiefs. If anyone wants to watch a masterclass on how to avoid pressure and make big plays in the pocket, that Raiders game might have been Lamar's best game ever in his career escaping pressure and making plays out of it.

I agree the Ravens on paper have an edge at TE, WR, and RB. But the Bills definitely have the better o-line.

Ravens have also had to overcome the defense being the worst in the league over the first half of the season and Justin Tucker having the lowest field goal percentage in the league.

I believe I saw a stat (someone would have to look it up and correct me): Bills against playoff teams this year are 3-3 and the Ravens are 5-3. Bills have the better record, but they are probably in the worst division in football as of now.

I don't see some massive O-line advantage for Buffalo. After the elite lines of Philly and Detroit there's a big glut of good lines where Bills are a little ahead of the Ravens. Ours has been above average by any measure since like the 1st week. I do see a much more sizeable advantage for us at the skill positions.

I don't know if anyone watches The Wunderkind Show, but the one below is on the racism that Lamar Jackson is getting ... specifically from Bills fans.

All of Lamar’s haters since 2018: “rAcE cArD sO pAtHeTiC hE jUsT sUcKs At Qb AnD yAlL r MaD”

Literally it’s been obvious to everyone from the very beginning. It’s not that he’s a black qb, it’s that he’s not a Carlton banks, he’s his authentic self, and doesn’t put himself in that “one of the good ones” box like these old timers expect a qb to do. It’s very thinly veiled. First he was a rb/wr, then it’s “he can’t even speak English how’s he supposed to call plays” then it’s “he can’t read a defense” then it’s “he’s not smart enough to go through progressions” and when all of this turned out to be completely false, they get so mad that they just rip off the veil and let it all show.

You know whats wild.. i was thinking about this. I mean he still isnt arod, but might be up there with a prime russ wilson as far as passing

Well, as far as the AROD angle is concerned, I was most drawn to your comment because of how much he is being compared to AROD from the "most efficient QB season in NFL history for player with over ten games angle". He could make number one on that list if he does well against the Browns on Saturday. He's currently number two all time for his work this season. And AROD actually has two of the top 5 seasons, and a couple more in the top ten. So the talking heads are all mentioning how he might be the new Aaron Rodgers.

Its debatable

Not even debatable. Prime Russ was a mediocre passer carried by an amazing defense and big WRs while having an all pro RB to take the edge off. The moment Lamar got JUST the all pro RB he put together one of the best seasons in NFL history.

I also think it’s weird that we consider Russ past his prime but not Stafford when they are the same age.

I dnt think he was mediocre at all as a passer. Russ ass now so is prime is over lol. Stafford still pretty good and still has crazy arm strength..i feel like players usually are out their prime once they fall off.

Stafford is still so underrated. He's always throwing his wide receivers open and is still one of the best QB's in the game. He's constantly elevating his teammates play around him.
