not too many guys like Rashaan Evans around but every team in the AFC North should get one. Titans did pretty much exactly what the Steelers did to him in October which is putting a super athletic ILB (Bush) spying him and make him read a defense (ha ha ha). He'll resort to throwing at the other team or taking off and grabbing yards on the ground. and ex-LB like Vrabel used Evans like the Steelers used Bush
That young man in Baltimore made massive improvements from year one to year two and I admit, I never saw it coming. After some of those games at the end of the year last year to include the playoff game against the Chargers, I saw a QB that although physically talented, was very inaccurate and confused at times and I didn't see him improving at all. I thought he was the most talented athlete on the field but not an NFL QB. He proved during the regular season, he can play the position. Congrats to Mob for believing in him. I didn't see it. Congrats to Lamar and I look forward to seeing him next year and beyond. I, for one, don't see him getting injured with his run game. He avoids contact pretty well.
Onto the game yesterday, I just don't think that offense will work in the playoffs against good defenses. Not necessarily Lamar's fault...he's doing what he can within the offense but I was pretty consistent in this thread in believing I don't think they'll ever win the big games with Lamar running this offense. Can he run a traditional offense? I guess that remains to be seen and why we watch the game huh? Anyway, congrats on him winning the MVP award and let's not take away from a great regular season for the Ravens. It was fun to watch no matter what happened yesterday.
The accusations we are racist because we didn't think Lamar would be successful in the NFL at QB are just asinine and we all know it. We've got to get past the constant KKK/racist accusations here. Its just non-productive IMO.
VD - J Clowney has never been accused of being a dirty player. His hit on Wentz was a bang bang play and what happened is just unfortunate. The guy didn't mean to hurt him IMO. The Eagles weren't winning that game with Wentz and his QBs activated off the street corner. I still believe Wentz is an average NFL QB. Injured all the time but not his fault etc.
All that to say, go Seahawks. I heard half the GB offensive line is sick today.

I have often said it gives a voice to people who otherwise have no voice (and I'm not addressing anyone in particular here, just stating a truism)
Not sure his obsession with Jackson. If you want to suck off a black QB Wilson is much better.....and Mahomes(if you consider him black) is too. Both great passers who can run. That is the key. A running QB means jack shit. It's about the ability to make good decisions and be accurate. If you can move around....extend plays or even gain yards running at times that is great too. Honestly....Jackson is an average passer who can run. He is a high end college option QB as opposed to a low level one like a QB for Army. He is also a ijury waiting to happen. 3-5 years into his career he will be dealing with all kinds of problems
It also allows folks to create a persona that may or may not be indicative of who they really are.
We have plenty who like to create threads for shock value, generate emotional responses, etc etc.
When real life gives you the opportunity to meet and resolve differences you can choose to do what you want, but it potentially tells enough as to your true character.
But who cares, right. We all have the choice to act however we want, both here on the RX and in our “real life”.
If no one replied to the BS threads would they end? Probably not...plus isn’t it human nature to argue over what we consider to be right, whether politics, religion, sports, relationships, could go on and on.
I would take a SB championship over MVP anytime.
Maybe some won’t take the bait and start back with the drama???
Lamar’s color had nothing to do with his performance, age and nerves did.
No need for me to post anymore in this thread.
Saw this on twitter and thought of this thread.
First playoff wins for a few QBs. Lamar will be just fine, especially if Greg stays put awhile.
There's no doubt lj can win a playoff game. Question, I think, is will he be healthy? History shows all this hype to be a waste of time if they don't get there again (very fast).
