There is no denying Lamar is playing great right NOW I still think that Contract ages horribly.... qbs who run the ball as much as he does have a "Best if used by" date just like RBs.  

Burrow isn't fully guaranteed and a big difference is his game isn't at risk of falling off a cliff with them.

Lamar has shown he doesn’t need to run to win. He’s been accurate since he’s entered the league. His numbers show that. What would make you or anyone else think he’s going to fall apart if his legs go, or he’s a running QB?

This. Some of the posters now saying he wasn’t going to come here, we’re saying then that he wasn’t good enough, wasn’t worth it, or saying silly nonsense like he quit on his team and his teammates likely didn’t appreciate him. 

Oh trust me they know who they are. I remember it was only a few of us who wanted Lamar. Everyone else was trashing him because he wanted to get paid. Funny how those same posters acting like they don't remember those comments.

 

Now they saying he was never coming here. Of course because we never gave him a offer sheet! Nobody did!

I was not in favor of a trade because Lamar had not been good in the playoffs, and had not been nearly as good as his MVP year since.  He’s certainly having a great year and proving a lot of people wrong, but I’m still waiting to see him take that level of play into the postseason.  But man even removing this seasons performance, it would have been a lot better than the Bryce Young trade lol.

Now look at him 2nd MVP best record in football and still has limited weapons.

 

You wonder why he doesn't do well in the playoffs look around him!

It really doesn’t matter if he was going to come here. The reasons folks said we shouldn’t go after him is because they didn’t think he was good or worth it.

 

tldr, just more proof of implicit bias ruining talent evaluations 

I have never said he wasnt good, but I have said he was dumb. I have also said he sucks in the playoffs or gets hurt before them. 

He has always been great in the regular season when not injured.

Same could be said for Justin Herbert, and if I recall, you wanted him.

All things equal I would take Lamar over Herbert. 

Lamar was scaring everyone when he and his mom where negotiating his deal. 

Herbert has done jack poo in this league compared to Lamar, the dude is a former MVP and the Ravens are in the playoffs every year for just showing up to games basically.

What makes him dumb?

 

Please I need an explanation because I just don't see how you came to that conclusion.

    • Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.
    • Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
