Re: Lamar Jackson

Yeah, the Ravens are unabashedly going all college style with him. That's all fine and dandy, until you have Donovan McNabb knees after a couple of years. There's a reason most teams have always shied away from letting their QB's run, whether they had the ability or not.

Re: Lamar Jackson

A few weeks ago everyone was talking about how the Patriots were unbeatable and that they may go undefeated, etc, etc. Now I just don't see how the Patriots have any chance getting passed the Ravens. Belichick is a genius, so perhaps he will come up with an amazing game strategy, but the Patriots better pray that the Ravens get knocked of by someone like KC before they meet.. otherwise it'll be the Ravens playing us in the Super Bowl.

I want to throw this out there though. I do expect Lamar Jackson to regress next year. I think Lamar is a somewhat above average thrower of the football, but definitely not elite. Compared to some of the other guys that have had amazing starts only to be shut down in the following seasons(RG3) for example.. I think Lamar is far more effective, will be harder to solve, and will have a long prosperous career. He will be slowed down some once teams have an offseason to think over an approach. It won't be this year though.

Re: Lamar Jackson

Everybody gets hurt. It won’t be because he scrambles. It’s far more likely any injury that he’ll endure will take place while he’s in the pocket.

He's already been hurt scrambling last year. Same for Watson. It can be done for a little while but eventually the hits will become more violent.

What he is doing is fun to watch but it's not sustainable. Never has been never will be.

The statistics don’t coincide with that premise. QB’s get hit ALL the time. Whether they’re running or throwing they take licks. Him taking the hit after running isn’t any different from him taking a hit after already releasing the ball which happens damn near every play.
