I’m not talking about Kyler Murray because I DON’T think that. You got the intent of the statement backwards.

“We are going to let due process happen” - the Chiefs in an hour.

I have read that but I wonder if that’s just because he had to go to the bathroom that one game last year

I never claimed the media didn’t criticize Kyler so idk what you’re smoking my dude. Maybe Lamar has a larger injury, or other health issues that are an open secret, or at least heavily speculated on in the NFL that are going under reported.

That’s fair too, but IMO Lamar is a young superstar. It’s weird he got the Tua treatment. Your example is probably better than the OP.

The difference is Lamar’s injury wasn’t talked about much at all. The guy is a superstar, on a playoff team (which was recently the 1 seed in the AFC), and it didn’t dominate the news cycle. Which is unusual, IMO

Lol bro, we had a whole investigative report on Aaron Rodgers’ toes for like a month. Lamar gets a bone bruise and it’s just silence and he doesn’t play. Do you see the difference?

We have somehow come full circle and started talking about football again. The power to change the world has been inside us all along.

That probably has more to do with the community than me at all then. I'm not responsible for other folks' comments nor beliefs. Besides, identifying turds makes it that much easier to fish them out of the bowl. If anything, @Jauronimoincited the hyenas. A response like that was certainly going to make some folks feel a certain kind of way. And the proof is in this very topic. The more problematic posts have almost entirely been in response to him. I'd love to see your scathing criticism of him.

Legitimately incorrect. I do think Lamar has gotten more love in the media than Josh even tho I believe that Josh is better but that’s the extent of my bias against him. for you to level accusations of this magnitude is frankly absurd. I’m not plotting under your bed dude. It’s twobillsdrive. Besides the fact, if what you said was true AT ALL, why wouldn’t I pick the easier target of Kyler Murray? Way more topical and relevant. Or was that a part of my insidious plan to throw you off the scent??

No, I just told them to meet me at high noon at Artpark.

I used to challenge posters on TBD to fight me but some moderators found it “immature” and “morally reprehensible” and so the bit died.

See this makes MORE sense to me. Honestly probably smart from a management standpoint. It wasn’t their year, and shut it down. I buy that. An unusual situation in the NFL, but they were an unusually injured football team.

Jauronimo was being sarcastic my dude.

Agreed, shots like that are insane. There are a ton of great black QB’s in the NFL. Dak, Kyler, Lamar, along with some guys who have potential like Hurts, Tua, Fields. We should be going forward, not backward.

Lol and MY thread about speculation is over the top? As much as I enjoy your football takes, you are WAY off on this one.

I think that’s a little over the top, personally.

Doing what? Discussing a rival QB? I don’t understand what the big deal is. There was rampant speculation that he’s battling IBD or some other problems months ago. I don’t know if any of that holds water. But it’s just kinda weird.

Dude. Lamar Jackson will probably the second biggest AFC rival to Josh Allen for the next 15 years. I think one topic on him is ok.

Are we acting like Lamar Jackson is not a media darling? there are two sides to every contract negotiation. For all you know, Lamar wants to be paid more than Mahomes.

How many people did anything with a torn labrum and broken shoulder this year? Let alone played football? Baker Mayfield did. In the words of Sammy Watkins, let’s not pretend all of y’all’s little jobs are the same.

I somehow manage to be tiresome unintentionally and intentionally. I am the Lamar Jackson of tiresome.

I said if I was a Ravens fan or player. I’m neither of those things. I swear, I’m not Marlon Humphrey. I do wonder the extent of his injury, because there’s basically no details. That’s why it’s strange.

This is a dome thread Umm you aren’t an nfl player. appreciate the insight tho. I don’t think Lamar has had surgery yet.

I don’t think Lamar is malingering. If he can’t go, he can’t go. I wouldn’t hold it against him personally. He’s gotta look out for himself, look what happened to Baker. He played hurt and played himself out of a long term deal. I think there may be more to the story because on its face it seems kinda odd and it seemed to me to not really be discussed.
