Lamar Jackson

I mean in the NFL you are not going to have WRs be wide open over 10 yards down the field (usually). Part of being a great passer is being able to hit throws like the one he hit to Brown week 2. If he can hit dimes like that more often then he will be an elite QB.
 
it also completely ignores his rushing ability lol
It's been only two half seasons so far and the Lamar talk changes with every game because people are just too lazy (with few exceptions) and busy defending their take (from LJ being just a glorified RB who will get injured very soon to Ravens haven't played anybody yet). They'll get used to it once Lamar has done it long enough.

I stopped paying attention to most of that crap and will just strap in and enjoy the ride.

im really enjoying it
the only game i didnt enjoy this year was the browns game (where the team didnt show up) and the only lamar game i thought he actually played badly in was the steelers game - chiefs game was not a great lamar game but it was certainly a fun lamar game

while i hate losing, lamar makes every game immensely watchable

Yeah but show me a player who never has a bad game. Little unfortunate at the moment with bad D but he was never so bad that better D couldn't bail him out.

oh absolutely there isnt one - was just remarking that even in losses lamar is exceptionally fun to watch
Lamar's playmaking ability is just so unpredictable and, quite literally, drive-saving you just leave yourself wondering how deadly of a player he can be if becomes even more consistent and adequate with his passing. I mean heck, Zac Taylor basically stated how frustrating it is for the defense to be right there to make a big play only for Lamar to use his athleticism to extend plays/make big plays for himself and complete ruin everything.
 
Having moderated in the past on the br.com site I can say I feel your pain. I will say the population on here is much more respectful. Heated exchanges still almost always remain civil.

Thanks for maintaining a really good forum.

You have most likely suspended me on the old boards...

One little crease and he's down 30-35 yds before we know it! He is the rarest athlete I've ever seen in person! Those are compliments I want the Lamar pessimists to see!
 
In that case, thanks for sparing me!
Haha you didn’t need to be spared not from my recollection. Really there were only 2 people I remember locking horns with ... one was a dude who was short lived was making far out accusations about the state of our locker room with respect to race relations because his uncles neighbors cousin was a Ravens towel boy or some such nonesense and the other was RayRaven. What a troll that guy was.

The ladies sure had a thing for rmcjacket lol he could be a bit condescending but IMO nothing worth getting fired up over.

All in all this site has a smaller population but is more informative and has far fewer people sniping with each other.

are you talking about Winchester who became Sledgehammer on this board and is no longer on the boards. Yes RayRayRaven was an absolute troll.
 
The playbook seems a little too limited for my taste. We ran the ball on 2nd and short so many times and it was clear they were ready for it. Under center PA would have been nice to see with some short passes.

Let Lamar play

I get last weeks gameplan. It seemed to be get in and get out injury free. Nothing complex. They cant stop the run so keep pounding.
