What QB is under the most pressure this postseason and why?

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Lamar took them shyts. He didnt go into either season as the top MVP candidate. I wouldnt say awards are the end all be all in how media feels about a player. You gotta look at the coverage. Lamar got the MVPs but look at how his contract was discussed vs Burrow or even Herbert, despite him having the MVP. Look at how his 0-2 start this was discussed vs Burrow, despite him having 2 MVPs. And even now the convo went right to "Heat is on Lamar" while Burrow got either crickets or capes.

I believe the pressure is and should be on Lamar. I also believe white QBs have been given more room, understanding, pleas, and unearned credit/props. Its two different discussions but he no doubt gotta show up this year. No shame in losing to 90s Bulls but he does have to show up.

Burrow and the Bengals were getting clowned for that 0-2 start. Let's not have revisionist history out here as people were poking fun at him and saying he was regressing.

All of the talk was on how he always tended to struggling in the beginning of the season to only pick up the pace as the season went on.

Pull those numbers up from that so called top 5 WR vs the Chiefs in the playoffs. Gabe fukking Davis had more impact in 1 game vs the Chiefs than Diggs did in 3 Did you forget the perfect pass Josh threw 60 yards that he dropped? Allen has played well enough in the playoffs Lamar hasn't. Give Allen Baltimore defense from last year Buffalo is in the SB

You’re literally making my argument for me



Gabe Davis has been better than any Ravens WR prior to this year AND HE WAS THE DAMN #2 guy

 

[jaydawg08]

It is, it was!! You are too biased to see it!!!

I can’t argue with idiots. Go watch sports and become more knowledgeable and we can have a discuss again.

 

[HNIC973]

One thing I noticed about Lamar stans there's zero logic or factual data you can debate they'll defend him to death

Exactly...it was accepted as just how they do. They'll be fine. Meanwhile there was way more doom and gloom for Lamar and the Ravens. And he def took waaaaaaaaay more shyt for damn near carrying his team to a win in KC than Burrow did for stinking it up at home vs the Pats.

Let me ask you this question.

If you think that Lamar is better than all these other QBs out here outside of Mahomes, then why are you still comparing him to them and using them as a crutch to defend him? If he's better than them, then what they are and aren't doing out here shouldn't matter right? He should be held to a higher standard should he not?

Like @premier58 keeps saying, cats keep showing that they don't have faith in Lamar without realizing it.

Read my first post you quoted. I got no problem with him having pressure or expectations. But you arent gonna shortchange him his props and conveniently prop up these white dudes and then go radio silent when they fall short while crushing him.

Whose propping up those white dudes when it's being made entirely clear that Lamar is by far better than them by giving him back to back MVP's and first team all pro?

The narrative then means nothing now because it's being shown what they think of him.

I think Lamar has ALWAYS had expectations that other QBs not named Lamar have never had to deal with

Lamar played with some really subpar weapons his entire career with the Ravens, and has been criticized endlessly for essentially leading his team to the same level as Josh Allen who has had VASTLY more weapons every single year besides this year

Lamar FINALLY has a legit weapon in Henry, and he just put together one of the greatest QB seasons in NFL history.

If Josh Allen really is the better QB and “best player in the NFL” he has just as much pressure as Lamar to deliver


but as is tradition, Lamar is held to a completely different standard than anyone else

How many MVPs does Josh have?

Thats all it is, duke. When Brady went on that long stretch without running, I wasnt using Rivers, Romo or McNabb as a crutch or excuse. I was disappointed, yet still believed he would get it done. If they believed in Lamar like they say, their expectations would be and should be, Superbowl or bust. Every year where Lamar played most of the games, they were a juggernaut. 2019 and 2023, especially. Doesnt change the fact that 2024 could still win it. Your best team is sometimes the one that doesnt win. See 2003-2005 Colts. They got it done in 2006. Steelers were a 15-1 powerhouse in 04. Devastating home L to the Pats in the AFC championship game. Eerily similar to the loss that Baltimore had vs KC. No. 1 seee at home, vs a 2 time champion, who was going for a repeat. Steelers got it done in 2005. There are many Broncos who believe that there 96 team was their best, they got it done as a Wild Card thr following season before repeating in 98. The stage is set for Lamar to atleast make it to the dance. Another one, the 87 49ers were a freight train whi got upset as a 13-2 team. Won the title in 88, as a 10-6 team.

Without winning, not running. Bad typo

You know who is and you know you have seen it. Let's not play games breh. Like I said, its two different convos. Racist BS doesnt preclude him from expectations. He still gotta perform. But we not gonna act like their isnt some racist BS in the mix. Giving the man what he has rightly earned and/or him not performing does not mean you (not you personally breh) aint on some racist BS.

How many MVPs does Josh have?

Why do some of y'all act like Lamar didn't earn those MVPs through his play and was just gifted them on a whim?

He earned those MVPs through his play, but that success increases expectations and disingenuous to pretend that it isn't.

This has always been the norm in sports so it’s weird that people are picking now as the time to make an issue of it.
