I get the general consensus always says you dont care about the cost and you get the qb. But the ravens who are all around one of the best teams in the league cant get over the hump. Would the titans with lamar and no draft picks be in the hunt right now? Sure we would be more competitive but this team would still not be in the real competition for a crown. Basically im saying trying to build a team the hard way(the right way) was a better option than trying to use lamar as a crutch for us.

OILERMAN Posted September 20, 2025 Report Share Posted September 20, 2025 Lamar had missed a lot of games and wasn't nearly the passer he has developed into the last few years when the Ravens allowed him to seek a trade. The Ravens would never allow this with the current version of Lamar and he'd get a guaranteed contract on the open market today. Right now he's probably the best offensive weapon in NFL history IsntLifeFunny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL There is no correlation to the statement I made. Lamar is also only 27, he's likely to win one And yes, defense does win championships Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrill Posted March 10 Author Report Share Posted March 10 He had a bad year while playing hurt, but it hasn't received enough press that the league colluded to not pay Lamar Jackson to avoid setting a precedent of guaranteed contracts. Absolutely nuts that teams were willing to turn down a franchise QB to keep the NFL PA down, and then the NFL PA was in on it! The Pablo Torre episode on this is fantastic.
