Another playoffs with Lamar McGrady going home early

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

So despite him delivering in the clutch, you’re focused on the first half as opposed to the all pro with 3 drops and a fumble, all coming on different drives to ruin each one . The ravens scored on every drive after halftime except where Andrews fumbled and if he can simply hang onto a wide open pass, the story is Lamar leading an 88 yard touchdown drive to tie the game in less than a minute if not win the game in some other fashion if he doesn’t have a mental meltdown and juke backwards in the process of losing that fumble. Seriously what sense does it make to say the all pro tight end dropping the pass that would’ve tied the game with 93 seconds left to lose the game is an excuse and not what directly caused them to lose the game? That’s like blaming Kurt Warner for the cardinals losing Super Bowl 43 as opposed to the defense folding in the clutch because of the Harrison pick 6 in the first half when he more than did his job in the 2nd half.

Lamar for whatever reason is the only quarterback I’ve ever seen where people are more focused on a a first half turnover that didn’t result in a defensive score or even the ensuing possession starting in the red zone than they are the fact that his target dropped the tying score with the season on the line one drive after a backbreaking fumble that also cost them more on the scoreboard than what they lost by.

Do you know why people focus more on his turnovers?

It’s because he’s more sloppy with the ball in the postseason compared to his regular performances and the numbers show it. It’s and how ironic people would always like to point out Allen’s turnover issues (include Lamar defenders), but now want to juelze and downplay his in the postseason.

It’s more goofy the excuse are making as those turnovers could have led to points for the Ravens and not put them in that situation at the end of the games. It don’t matter whether the Bills did score them as the Ravens didn’t either.

Also put some respect on Henry’s name as he essentially got them back in the gsme before that drive.

When did Michael Jordan lack sound fundamentals?

Was Jordan mid range game questioned out of college or as a pro? But Lamar had throwing mechanics/footwork issues until essentially this year... however, it's still some throwing issues and some poor decisions.


Lamar has more in common with LeBron.

Lebron too.
Shaq before kobe after getting swept.
Tragic magic


Peyton manning
Sheit...

Randall Cunningham and Warren moon never won and still got love.
Sohh till Lamar does it. There will be these critiques. Even if Lamar does it. It will be a new Payless level skip bayless type. To hate on that too.

It is what it is.


You assessment of Lamar mechanically is valid. Yet too succeed.
it is a bit more mental.
at this point than just core fundamentals. It is just hard to correct under duress. Without properly addressing and raising the quality of Lamar's mechanics.


So I agree. it is a mechanical component to Lamar improvement. That also has a mental component.
That i feel more reps under duress.
Is what will change the outcome for Lamar. As rhe playoffs for Lamar being Lamar. Will always be from a place of pure ferocity. Putting Lamar under total duress every olay. That Lamar will just need more reps in that environment and improvements mentally and mechanically as a playmaker. To possibly succeed in the future.

Lamar's got such a poor playoff resume that this 2-turnover game is still one of his best games...

Those turnovers basically decided the game. Baltimore wins going away if Lamar plays clean football, but this is the Lamar experience. He's always fukking up in the playoffs, in ways he doesn't in the regular season...

He's Black Manning; Manning reincarnated in a swaggy, black man's body. I think he'll break thru one day. But aside from the crucial drops and defense getting shoved around, and questionable coaching by Harbaugh.....Lamar didn't do them any favors at all with those two dumb ass turnovers...

Manning had great playoff games tho

Everybody made excuses for Lamar. Except Lamar. He flat out said it was the turnovers that lost the game.

 

[its2late2hate]

this thread is dumb. How did he go home early when he was the 3 seed who won his first game at home then Lost to the 2nd seed on the road. he was supposed to lose. Last year this thread would have made sense

None of the comparisons make any sense. McGrady and Lamar aren’t parallel at all. But it’s jokes I guess.

 

[Street Knowledge]

He just has to win one ring and he should be good.

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

he was supposed to lose.

 

[the next guy]

Needs to step up

Wheres the MVP Josh Allen thread about him going home early?
