To not give Lamar Jackson credit for what he's done so far in his career OR to already crown him a great QB is dumb and ignorant.
He's been great within this small sample size. But this league can humble people real fast. Put enough games on film and give great DC's some time to figure it out and warts can be shown real quick. Colin Kaepernick tore up the league for a couple of years and led his team to a Super Bowl. Then his last two seasons he was so bad that he eventually got benched in favor of Blaine F'ing Gabbert.
So let's slow down a little and watch how this thing unfolds. He hasn't even played a full season yet.

Apparently you are incapable. Not a surprise. Did you know there is an off-season between seasons? And that this is his first year as the starting QB entering the season. Which means he got an offseason to prepare. These are things you are incapable of understanding the benefits from...if this was a white qb off half of a rookie season my guess most people would be saying...” give him a chance. It’s his first year.” But nah the qb guru Enflameo and friends just knew he was a bust, didn’t they? LMFAOOOOO. Faillllllll
Almost everything one can analyze is relative. You are just as stubborn with your take on this as Mob is.
In the games Jackson has started since last year, he has FAR exceeded most people's expectations. To judge him on one horrible game against San Diego in the playoffs last season is unfair. That was bad, but everyone has a stinker now and then. Even Brady and Manning put some God awful games on film through the years.
What's his record been as a starting QB since he made his first start last season? Rushing Yards per game? TD to INT ratio? He's been great, considering all the variables.
And like I said, I give the Baltimore coaching staff a ton of credit for how they have utilized him thus far. We will see how the chess game works moving forward and how good Lamar and the staff can adjust to adjustments.
Yes, you are. He was 6-2 last year as a starter. Only losses were a 3 point loss at KC and a loss in the playoffs. Yet you don't give him any credit for that season. Just looking at his passing stats is not a fair evaluation. You have to consider the whole package. What he brings in the running game is lethal. But even if you look at just passing stats, they aren't horrible. They were respectable last year. And off the charts so far this year.
Stubborn.
Uh, that's your MO here. What you are most famous for. I think almost all of TheRx veterans would agree with that.
You are hardly ever wrong and you love to argue.
I'm the one trying to lay out both sides of the debate here with Lamar. I'm giving him credit for how well he has played thus far vs most people's expectations. But at the same time, giving a ton of credit to Baltimore's staff for how they have utilized his strengths and telling everyone to give it more time before we can truly evaluate.
But yet you can't see that. You won't even budge an inch with your stance. You rarely do.
Stubborn.
This isn't always true. You are speaking in absolutes. It's very easy to shred your stance when you go that route.
The Chargers had a very good defense last year. He went into LA and beat them 22-10. Passed for over 200 yards. 1 TD. 0 INT's. Over 100 QB rating.
You said he struggles when facing good defenses. Not that game. So WRONG.
Stubborn. And Wrong.
Right. Kind of like how when Wentz had an amazing year...got them the #1 seed and home field throughout....and you are still in that thread arguing about how you weren’t wrong. You aren’t fooling anybody just stop. You said he would set them back....and they go and win the Super Bowl immediately. Truly amazing shit. Some Varkey shit if I’ve ever seen it
Personal? Hahaha!
Dude, are you really this sensitive? I call you stubborn and tell you what we already all know. You love to argue and you are rarely wrong. This isn't a ground breaking new take. You have been that guy for years here. And this hurts your feelings so you leave?
I doubt you are really that sensitive. But if you need to use that as an excuse to exit a conversation that you were clearly getting shredded in, because you can't handle losing or sounding dumb, then by all means.
Bye.
