Lamar Jackson

[xray]

I was actually shocked by his performance in the AFC championship game . Up to that game he was in contention for MVP . What happened ? Granted , KC has a top 5 defense ; but Jackson played like a 1st year rookie QB . I think he blew his chance at a SB appearance and a ring forever . imo

Like every year...gets in big games in the playoffs vs playoff proven teams and people realize he really isn't a quarterback. Keep him in the pocket..force him to throw. He will fall apart. He's not really quick to find his reads and looks as though he has 20 min to find a guy out there. If he gets outside of the pocket he is dangerous with his speed. The Chiefs did a good job on stopping that last week. As he gets older it's gonna get tougher for him to succeed as a rb. People need to stop blaming the players around him or should they draft yet another wr in rd1? Imo he's another Scam Newton.

He's pretty good against the NFC teams. Unfortunately, he doesn't have the luxury in the playoffs.

Really good QB, but he's a front runner rather than a come-from-behind QB.

$52 AAV... yeah think I'd rather have Sam.

Is Lamar Jackson becoming one dimensional?

He’ll throw it up for grabs too… I hate that… it’s like when a laborer doesn’t really know what to do so they just keep doing the wrong thing and then your like no no no if you don’t know don’t do it!!!!

Lamar Jackson has always been overrated. Glad it's becoming very obvious now, though.

 

[evergreen]

He doesn't run anymore. He was so elusive. Now not so much. Let's play them now!

 

[Palmegranite]

He's been amazing year after year, and when a defence thinks they've solved his excellent running game , he goes to the air. Turns out, he's a decisive and accurate thrower too.

The chinks in his armour lately seem to be ball security(at the absolute worst times) and now maybe post-injury tentativeness.

Lamar is great. He's actually a much better passer than most thought he'd turn out to be. He does got the big-game monkey on his back. But that's about it.

Sperry . I was reading this and had Deja Vu..
Very relevant…

IMO, he was just ‘stale’. One can imagine that dual threat with age issue is lingering in his and the organization’s minds…

*Edit* - it was @hox

*2nd Edit* it’s not really that old…I’m tripping. I just remember that Raven Simone pic . Carry on GemCity…carry on
