We need to go all in on Lamar Jackson...

Pretty much...

Plus you've always got to ask, if that guy is really that good, why isn't he winning a Super Bowl with his current team? Sure as hell not like the Ravens are a bad organization.

This is basically another magic unicorn hunt where some fan says "Hey if we just get this one guy we're gonna win the next five Super Bowls!!!"

Yeeeeah...no 🙄

What they really need to do is put in the work, build the roster the right way, draft and develop the quarterback, etc along with, to quote the immortal Lightning McQueen, "an insane amount of luck" for it to all come together...if it ever does. There are, as the saying goes, no guarantees.

It might not sound as exciting as swinging for the fences with some ridiculous trade offer, but that's how it works. Some people try taking pills to lose weight rather than doing the hard work of diet and exercise. This type of suggestion is pretty much the same mentality.

And hell, Buffalo has "that guy", plus an established coach, a strong roster plus inspiration from an injured teammate this season, and they didn't make it to the Super Bowl either.

In real life, winning championships is hard.

(and there aren't any cheat codes) 😐

The Ravens have not really gotten the kid a legit receiver since he's been there. Plus, anyone that's paying attention knows that Jackson is the Ravens offense. He accounts for an ungodly percentage of their offense. Now, I could chalk it up to it being his fault, but that's probably simplistic. The Ravens really need to do better acquiring players at skill positions. Andrews is arguably the only legit one outside of Lamar. Moreover, the play-calling is a little suspect.

Sounds like Cam 2.0.

 

Get the man some weapons!

I feel like I've heard this "It's everybody's fault but his" argument before 🤔

Football is the ultimate team sport. Nobody is losing or winning by themselves. I tell my 24-year-old son that when he starts talking about Mahomes, Burrow, Allen and Jackson. Moreover, the FO is responsible for team building, so they're a huge part of that success or failure as well.

Not reading the entire thread---

All in?  Like the Broncos did?  The Browns?  The Rams? 

Good thinking!!

You writing them off after 1 bad season?

 

Damn bro your patience sucks. I bet you thought Trevor Lawrence was a bust and Mac Jones was a star after 1 season huh?

If I am paying QBs $50m per year and they are proven veterans, Yep.  My patience sux.  Do you think $250m contracts are for developmental projects?

Jones and Lawrence are on rookie contracts. They are rookie contracts because they are developmental.  Do you see the difference?

You do know only 1 QB can win the SB a year right?

 

Aaron Rodgers wins MVP's and hasn't made a SB in over a decade.

 

Every QB failed if they didn't win the SB.
