Lamar Jackson

Facco had legendary performances because he had legendary players around him (i.e., Marshall Yanda, Ray Rice, Dennis Pitta, Anquan Boldin, Jacoby Jones, Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Haloti Ngata, Terrell Suggs, etc.) to name a few.

And Lamar? Who are his "legendary" players?

Tucker. Humphrey. Andrews maybe. Williams. Smith. to name a few.

You know what you said. I am curious though: why do you think the Ravens will do better in the playoffs than most expect?

I actually found what I said and hope you was able to read it after I tagged you. I think The Ravens will do better in the playoffs than expected because I think they have a pretty good defense and when Lamar Jackson is playing at his best regardless of he is hard to defend. When Lamar is playing at a level we all know he can play which is when his throw mechanics and foot work is on point it then he's no doubt about it hard to defense and this offense in general becomes hard to defend. The receiver situation isn't ideal but I think The Ravens still have pieces to work with . Not saying The Ravens are going to the super bowl or anything like that but at the sametime none of these playoff teams are really that scary to me but that's just me.


I'm curious to get your opinion why my previous post got you thinking that it meant me saying Andrews and Likely will form the ultimate indefensible duo.
 
I know people can say of course John isn't going to he super transparent with injuries. And I'm actually agreeing he should just not comment or if he does he should be extremely transparent with constant updates. Whichever he prefers. But he shouldn't do what he constantly does which is downplay every injury after it happens and then go radio silence after what he said was totally wrong.

Last year we thought Lamar would be back, he never made it back.

This year we thought Lamar would be back, he did not make it back for the regular season. There's conflicting reports between rapsheet and Chris simms about the playoffs.

But both times John said he'll be back and this time he said week to week. Like a whole 7 weeks IF HE COMES BACK FOR THE PLAYOFF GAME, is not a week to week injury. It's literally bullshit John said and for what reason idk why.

No other team/coach has an issue telling what the injury is, QBs included, and how long will player be out. Most often then not, those initial reports are pretty accurate.

LOOOOL

If after 4 weeks, it was "extremely swollen", I don't think you're going to see Lamar this year. But I will throw this report into the trash like all the other ones.

I am not buying it one bit either. He was on the sidelines jumping around and did not seem bothered by it at all, the multiple times they showed him. Why would a player with such a swollen knee stand on the sidelines for three hours? It makes no sense and I call bullshit!

I can't comment because I can't honestly say I watch other teams media videos. But I don't get why John downplays everything and allows himself to get exposed as a liar, or someoje uneducated on the situation, or whatever "take" you wanna have on it.

Can’t argue with that. I’d like to hope we show up for at least one playoff game lol

And I was cranky earlier. Haven’t had hot water for a week so I’m delusional. I’m sorry

Yeah if his knee was “extremely swollen” I doubt seriously he would even be on the sideline. Fake news!
 
I have this sense that Lamar is going to suit up for the playoffs, no matter the outcome. He is anxious to go and join his brothers in battle. I'm very optimistic that he'll suit up in the playoffs. If he doesn't, it can only mean he is still hurting and not entirely healed.

I couldn't even watch the other Rob Dyrdek shows afterwards. Nothing against Rob, but I just couldn't.

FF was okay, I watched but it wasn’t fucking with the original, not even close. Big Black was a character that deserved his own show too but he wanted to go the family route and good for him, just too bad we missed out on him all those years and now he’s gone. That dude pretty much inspired all of my sense of humor for a year or two ngl lol
