Such frauds. Lamar Jackson really is Michael Vick 2.0. Cannot believe this team was favored so much. FiveThirtyEight gave them a 47% overall to win the SB. Double the number for the 2nd and 3rd place teams behind them on ELO which was the Niners and Chiefs.

Right, but they have hope. Their QB is 23.

So. I'd take Drew at 41 over Jackson at 23. The way Jackson runs the ball, he won't last as long as Drew. There is a reason why those kind of mobile QBs don't win SBs.

Then why does everyone want to turn the team over to Taysom Hill?

Man...that’s a crazy take. For one, how many quarterbacks last into their 40’s? How many of them stay with one team their entire career? Why does it matter if his run is only five to seven years if he can get you to the championship? How can you say running QB’s don’t win when the sample size of them hasn’t become sizable enough to measure until contemporary times?

DeShaun Watson
Lamar Jackson
Ryan Tannehill
Patrick Mahomes
Russell Wilson

All of these running/mobile QB’s in the playoffs this year. Now the Ravens are pretenders because of Lamar Jackson when the defense let Henry almost run for 200 yards? Come on...

That is until he gets injured by running around. The Titans brought the heat and were punishing him for running around. QBs still haven't learned from Steve Young's injury history.

Lamar Jackson throws some seriously, ugly wobbly passes.

I could be wrong though. Mike Vick did become a pretty good passer when Andy Reid was able to work with him in Philly. Jackson has always given me the impression of a poor man's Vick.
