Lamar Jackson

One bad game, or have NFL coordinators figured him out? Letting him run but keeping him in front of you is going to prevent him from winning games. I was unable to watch last night, but the stats are ugly. An offense that only scores 13 points will not win many games.

Coordinators figured it out. That kind of offense will only work so long before they figure it out in the NFL.

It seems only the Chiefs have figured him out. 0-3 vs the Chiefs in the regular season and 21-1 versus everyone else. The Chiefs defense is better than they are given credit for.

Agreed. Not to mention that mold of QB generally gets hurt. There's a reason why they tend to have short shelf lives in the NFL. Michael Vick was the best of the best, and perhaps Jackson is as close to him as can be, and even Vick never really 'made it' with real staying power.

Key word there is "regular season". The Titans also made Jackson look extremely ordinary in the playoffs this past season.

I like Jackson alot and he is exciting as hell when he starts scrambling but I have my doubts if he will ever advance very far in the playoffs with his erratic passing ability.

Chris Jones, is a beast for KC. The Ravens defense has more of the problem last night, they could not stop KC.
Lamar had a TD late int eh 4th quarter that he just under threw his receiver, would have changed the game.
I would not write him off yet. Also there is no real home field advantage without fans in the stands.

He's a ****** passer. Always has been. Got a cannon but it gets away from him. Of course, he's only been in the league a couple years so he should become better.

 

[JungRebel]

His accuracy is the biggest concern for sure. He has to work on his intermediate throws to keep them on schedule and convert on third down. There are a lot of quarterbacks that havent had great playoff success, but Jackson is still only 23 years old. I would take him over all but three or four guys if I was starting a team right now.

I kinda tend to think that is what’s going on too.

Greg Roman is the OC. He had a pretty good run for a couple years with Kaepenick in San Francisco. But defenses adjusted to that pretty quickly.
