Lamar Jackson

[Grim]

One way or the other, they need to get something done ASAP. We can't have another year of doubt and drama at the QB position. No doubt the situation affected performance, especially Lamar

It was certainly a distraction, that is not debatable. Whether it is one for the players, coaches, or just fans is another question entirely. It's become very annoying and a very old subject lol

In a bizarre version of the timeline, if he became a Patriot I would never forgive Steve B.

AINT NO WAY HE BECOMES A PATRIOT MAN

Why not? He would only be good for 10 games max before he gets hurt again. The Patriots would be wise to have a competent back up with Lamar as the starter.

What’s with all these practice squad posts as of late?

 

[Ellicottraven]

That clown from 105.7 who said that he thought Lamar was capable of playing right now must also think Calais and Stanley are lying too.

Oh, but all the naysayers on this forum want him to be traded.... wah, wah!

Huh?

 

[Ellicottraven]

When there is a void of information, people fill in the gaps. A lot of people still invested in Lamar failing because they said he would. Hoping someone fails rather than admitting you are wrong just shows what shit humans they are.

100%

I'm still convinced its sizzle with way to much free time

I'm the one with too much free time

Yes, just make a decision either way and we will roll with it. Just don't want this to drag another year.

dizzle is obviously sizzle though

They are like roaches.

Exactly how I feel. Of course, I want him to stay with a new OC and added weapons, but the FO needs to make up their mind.

Do it or don’t, but if Lamar leaves and/or Roman stays…

 

[BoredMarine13]

There’s rules against players gambling … but the GMs in the off-season?? I’d have my wife put a million down before making the trade if
I’m EDC

Don't discuss my son's life this early in the morning, fellas. I just woke up! Now, I get to worry over my morning cup of coffee. Such is a doting father's life...

If I was Lamar I wouldn’t even entertain re-opening talks with the Ravens unless they tell him Roman is gone and we’ll surround you with whatever you want, cost permitting. Otherwise why wouldn’t he want to go to the Jets or the Dolphins or another team that knows how to surround their QB with talent?

Because there's no guarantee those teams will have a HC, OC, or weapons when he gets there. Those teams have provided evidence they're willing to surround a QB with weapons when their QB doesn't get paid anything. What happens when the QB is making $50M?
In two years, there's no cap gymnastics possible where Lamar, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle are on the same roster. One of those three guys won't be there.

End of day, when Lamar's getting paid market value, he's not going to get a bunch of high end weapons. If he gets 1 or 2, that's a ton, and one of them will certainly be on a rookie contract. He's going to have to elevate his players, not the other way around. That'll be true in Baltimore or any other franchise.

I agree with the sentiment in your post. The reason I believe Lamar is perhaps among the few QBs' that can carry that $ figure reasonably well is that he has always been a force multiplier. He makes players around him better than they are otherwise. He needs to stay a Baltimore Raven.

So you’re sayin’ for $50 mil Lamar can make proche and duv better? Alrighty then, I’m in.

Even God couldn't make a dead person come alive. So, how could Lamar make Proche a WR?
