Thank you, I feel like I’m arguing with my friends almost. Not saying we should all be homers but it’s like we’ve forgotten we’ve been in 1st two years straight until Lamar went down. The Bengals have been the beneficiaries of a lot of injuries
Not for anything but hopefully Harbaugh has the team pissed off over the playoff game and the cocky ass holes that are Chase and Mixon
Tbh, i dnt remember lamar having a single good playoff game stat wise..That titans lose was all garbage yards
That int lamar threw sunday, he still throws that even if its jerry rice. He still gonna under/over throw a wr regardless of who it is. He isnt gonna be able to read defenses like peyton manning just because he has chase,higgins and boyd..yea he will throw for more yards but the same mistakes he makes now, he will make with the greatest wr core ever
Don’t get me wrong, Lamar has his faults, but he has made an offense with 0 explosive players, explosive at times it shouldn’t be.That will come with turnovers like Josh Allen, and I’m sure there are a couple 3-4 turnover games this season upcoming for Lamar. There’s just an intangible skill he has that’s similar to Brady where even if the stats aren’t there, he’s putting his team in winning position most of the time (you can argue not in the playoffs).
If Hurst catches that pass in the endzone it’s a game again, he wanted to be fed then wasn’t even looking for the ball. Then he has the nerve to taunt us when he comes back. Mark Andrews tip drill then Seth Roberts dropping a wide open pass that could have gone for 6, it wasn’t all Lamar’s fault.
He’s had one game with the new OC and weapons
he was doing that all game long and had 7 drops that game. hollywood also had a tremendous game.
that Nov game in 2018 was Lamars first start. very memorial spin move in that game. think he carried the ball over 25 times and about 120 yards
Oh i agree but when non raven fans look at it, thats not what it says. History books also say he played bad and lost.
I was at that game, it’s annoying that one site has Lamar’s career record against them as 6-2, when in actuality it’s 6-1 as a starter because he played two wildcat plays in that 2018 week 2 game and that was it. I see people misuse that in arguments and it should be 6-1
And I agree that Burrow and Mahomes are way better passers. Even QBs like Tua are way more accurate. But I think the issue with QB rankings is there are many things that go into a QB. If you look at a Hurts or Lamar type, I think you can get away with winning with less. But for pocket passers like Burrow, the ceiling is higher based on the players around them because they can get that ball to their playmakers nearly every time. If you consider that better that’s a valid opinion. But I believe the Ravens don’t have nearly the success they have had if it was a Burrow or Mahomes the past 5 years.
I wasn't referring to just this game. We all know he looked rusty and that's not his normal game. I was just making a point that he will never be on Burrows level passing wise and that's ok. His athleticism makes up for some of that and we can still win a SB with him is all.
Sunday was one of Lamar's worst ever games but that was partly down to how easy it was. Lamar's a competitor. He never looks his best in practice or preseason. We've seen him start reg. season games just as sloppily as he did vs. Houston but then pull out some great play to secure the win. He never needed to find another gear on Sunday, so he remained bad.
Right, and it will be interesting to see how this new offense evolves. It’s obviously designed to be more of a passing offense.
I would tell that to the people who use wins to judge Burrow just as I am telling that to you right now. Burrow is better for reasons you can actually analyze so using wins is a low football IQ way to go about it. The only thing your example shows is that Lamar Jackson is better than Tyler Huntley. That is the ONLY thing you have shown because the only time you can use wins is when comparing 2 QBs on the exact same roster which only applies when one is starting and one is the backup. You have successfully demonstrated that a top 10 QB is better than a top 45 QB. Mahomes is the best QB in football but if you put him on the Cardinals they are not making the playoffs and Mahomes would STILL be the best QB in football.
I agree and unfortunately history doesn't tell the total story. Lamar being the person he is, took full responsibility. He also had a bad game when we lost to the Bills, but of course so did Allen. Weather was making it a very defensive game.
