Those other teams don't matter because they are on the Ravens and Lamar still won MVP with same said weapons with people hyping him up to win back to back MVP with them on the roster.

None of the other shyt you say matters :mjlol:

It's other QBs out here putting up numbers with mehhh receivers on the roster unless you'd like to pretend that those receivers only exist on the Ravens?

:russ:

This ain't true. Top 5 QBs in passing yards so far this year:

1. Geno - DK and Lockett and Smith-Njigba
2. Baker - Evans and Godwin until this past week (Last week against the Falcons had 50 attempts and only got 300 yards)
3. CJ - Nico and Diggs and Dell until this past week
4. Aaron - Wilson and Breece AND just got Devante
5. Kirk - Basically all they skill positions is talented as hell

This version of the NFL learned how to play defense against the pass. It ain't that 7 on 7 shyt that existed a few years ago. Lamar and Brock are the only two in the top 10 in passing yards this year and aren't playing with two talented WRs at minimum for the majority of the season. You know Joe Burrow's dudes. Dak got several targets with top tier talent. Brian Thomas and Kirk are talented as hell too for Lawrence.

This is disingenuous. The Ravens success has been predicated on the running game and solid defense most of Lamar's tenure there. They've had multiple backs contribute to keeping the offense flowing and assisting his MVP campaigns. The focus on the "lack of talent" at the wideout position is a cop-out. Why spend big money there when your offense isn't dependent on that position?

Last year, it was a passing offense. This year is an improved version. It would've been bad faith had I mentioned the previous years, but they KNEW they were getting Monken to install more pass aggressive concepts and they stayed put instead of investing in better WR talent. There were WRs up for grabs last year. It was an easily fixable problem within the season. WRs ain't their biggest problem this season. It's defense, but depending on how Dionte works out maybe they solved that problem and make me look stupid for criticizing it.

So you're just going to pretend like he doesn't have the best running back in the league by far this season? Your comments in this thread always seem to leave out the latter in your argument.

Flowers and Henry is a damn good tandem even if the latter isn't a WR, so this narrative that Jackson doesn't have talented weapons this season is rather disingenuous.
