NFL World Reacts To ESPN Analyst’s Lamar Jackson Comment

[Tha Gawd Amen]

The fact that ESPN can have one talking head say something outlandish that the rest of the talking heads on the same network will debate throughout the entire day's programming will never not be funny to me.

I mean who dont think Lamar needs to show and prove in the post season?

Yall gonna yell racism and cacs everytime folks critique lamar jackson

Ppl still get mad at sports commenters who are paid to be trolls. And then have other analyst display fake “outrage” over said trolls bs?

Dont let these ppl create a narrative that aint even original or interesting.

The worst were actually sport writers from yester-year who wrote terrible shyt about players while forgiving the organizations.

then espn and those alike, gave em a platform. IE Jay Mariotti

Lamar Jackson has to throw the ball outside the numbers regularly to take the Ravens to the next level. All he does is throw in the seams everyone knows that. That comment someone tweeted about him having 4.3 speed means nothing and is bullshyt. It’s the same story over and over for these speed demon QBs.

Lamar needs to be able to complete that 25 yard out to the opposite hash

He needs to graduate from this pop Warner offense and make the throws down the field and to the opposite hash

then that’s on his oc, it’s not like Lamar doesn’t have an arm,

and a lot of qbs can’t make all the throws and design around their abilities, but Lamar ain’t alex smith level of shyt arm

I don't know why so many people hug Lamar's nuts so tight and get riked up about this. Talking bout regular season stats---->no one gives a shyt. When you really need that man to be the best player on the field, he hasn't been, period. The best I ever saw him play was that comeback vs Cleveland last year---->still a regular season game....

Holla at me when dude is the best player on the field in January, winning games as an underdog in January, not choking home games as the favorite in January...

I think you have to give him his regular season credit, but i order to be good in the playoffs, somethings are dependent on people stepping up, things breaking your way, and your coordinators coming up with more wrinkles and preparation for what they may see and counters, and in game counters for more wrinkles.

i look at Peyton, until they got rule changes, and switched up some things they finally got over the hump, he was a regular season champ, and folks had his number

I really like to see LJ with a true number 1 wide receiver.

This.

He was a better thrower in college. Harbaugh has built a system exclusively for his legs and throws to the TE along with screens etc and the occasional bomb to keep safeties honest which is why they keep drafting 6 foot tall fast WRs.

It'd be great if they tried to draft an actual passing weapon for him instead of trying to keep him in an offensive cage. It'll be Harbaugh's downfall.

Bummy Bomani always running his mouth and never know what he's talking about

sticking with Roman honestly, at least call patrino up and get him an analyst role to have your offense looking like his did with Lamar, instead of all these weak ass offensive calls he’s making

mom curious what he’s wrong about in this instance

The Peyton Manning stuff was dumb

While Lamar does need to improve his down the field passing and consistency… some of these dudes don’t even try to hide their racism. Another reason I’m caring less and less about sports as I get older.

Two arguments to be made and they can exist at the same time. Lamar is an amazing player, but he has to show he can consistently complete passes in the playoffs for the Ravens to have any real success. That's just a fact.

The issue for Lamar is that he's judged by a white media full of the old guard who hate his success (largely because he's black). Season after season he's proven them wrong, and the minute he falters they're going to say "see, we told you all along." That's pressure. Consider the way white media talk about Taysom Hill, vs the way they talk about Lamar. I literally heard Aikman say multiple times he's never seen a player do what Hill can. As if Lamar (and Vick) don't exist. That's the machine he's facing off against.

I just hope the brother was studying film and working on his game this offseason. I'm rooting for him, when he's not facing the Lions.

The Peyton Manning stuff was dumb

he had his points,

Peyton was a regular season champ but got dismantled in the playoffs, for the longest, no one ever came for Peyton saying the nfl figured him out

This dude really said Cutler never got criticized..

I was finne say wtf but decided to let him cook lol. Then I see you pointed it out.
