Lamar Jackson

Here’s a quote from the article :

I strongly believe Lamar was not going to the facility for regular treatment and rehab in the first few weeks after the injury and I've been told secondhand that that is true. Ok, "secondhand"… so what? Why should you or I believe that, Banks?


Because I know for a fact that he didn't come in regularly for treatment and rehab last year (while Watkins was also on the


The Ravens have seen enough and even some vets on the team are questioning his rationale for not playing according to the article .

Put a fork in Lamar . He’s done here

Roquan will now become the leader of this team.

So because he didn’t rehab at the facility does it mean he wasn’t rehabbing? Does that mean he took it any less serious?

The article even finishes off with still not knowing whether he can actually go or not. It’s conjecture at this point.

Tell me what benefit is there for Lamar to be hurt and NOT rehab? Bc what Watkins and this article implied is that he isn’t rehabbing for business reasons which makes no sense. Also Watkins bringing this up before a playoff game is sucka shit for a dude we’ve seen give up on routes. Don’t worry about another man’s pockets. He then back tracks and says he hopes someone can talk him into signing and to come back IF he’s healthy. Like huh?


Do I think Lamar could handle things better? Absolutely.

Even if the article is half true , it’s a damning piece on Lamar .

I think the Ravens have already made a decision to tag and trade him. And I believe Lamar has no problem with that either

It does cut down on the number of teams we can trade him too. He can basically veto any trade he wants by just refusing to sign the tag but I think this is the way it's going too.

No, they can't! This isn't the Raven's defense of 2000; it's 2022. That Ravens defense from 22 years ago, 22 years ago man; was one of a kind!

To my knowledge, they didn't blow double-digit leads or allow teams to run the ball on them. Ray Lewis even said:

"I told Shannon Sharpe and I told Jamal Lewis: Give us 10 points and the game is over," Lewis said. "That's not boasting. If you give us 10 points, game over. You go down against our defense, you're in a whole lot of trouble. We've dominated people like that all year. And they didn't score on us. Make sure you quote that. They didn't score on our defense."

Surely, (as decent as this present Ravens defense has played at times) you don't believe that this present defense is saying, "If you give us 10 points, game over" to this present Ravens offense; do you? Cause ain't no way in hell am I thinking that! :cool:

Yes they clearly can carry a young QB and they will likely be better next year with Roquan settled into the system.

I don’t think we need a generational type defense to be successful without Lamar. With an offense that puts up 24-30 points a game behind a strong run game and an efficient pass game I believe this defense could take us far.
Hell another reliable CB (if MP can’t return to form) and this defense is easily top 5. If we can get a stud pass rusher on top of that, solve the end of half/game issue then this defense would absolutely carry a rookie QB.

We went with 2-2 with Huntley , Tyler Huntley for gods sake scoring 12 points a game. Imagine if we inserted someone with actual talent to pair with this defense. People are just being bitches because their upset with Lamar’s situation.

My thoughts are as follows: I’ll be here supporting the Ravens whether we have Lamar or Kyle Boller 2.0. I think a few on here will ultimately leave though and that’s fine, it’s natural. But I’m a Ravens fan, not a Lamar fan. The Ravens will be here LONG after Lamar retires

As much as I love my Ravens since 1996, never have I loved them more since my son came on board. As a dedicated family man, I go where my son goes. Rest assured he won't leave Baltimore as much as some pessimist naysayers out here want him to. Why? Because they fucking lack drama at home and want to create it here! My son stays a Raven or I simply disown him and the team as well. Both don't deserve my awesomeness.

None of what I’ve seen so far seems like a big deal EXCEPT Lamar’s tweet. That was just off because it clearly wasn’t him and it clearly wasn’t following the current plan of attack by the organization. Makes me think he and someone over there are having some disagreements about how to handle this.
