The issue is I dont think they are going to take time to properly allow him to develop. I mean after all there are reports out of their camp of him lining up at WR during camp as well
BuffaloSol Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 Where is that Murph6 guy talking about racism and the reason Lamar Jackson didn't get drafted first. I mean Lamar basically looked like a "young Steve Young" tonight hahaha.
26CornerBlitz Posted August 21, 2018 Author Posted August 21, 2018 Andrew Luck 'sort of happy to get sacked' by Suggs A jittery Andrew Luck, by his own admission, did not play "very well" in Monday night's preseason tilt versus the Baltimore Ravens. The performance was a reminder that the chemistry and magic won't return simply by osmosis after more than a year away from football. While the stats are pedestrian -- 6-of-13 passing for 50 yards, an interception and two sacks -- and he continues to take easy throws, not showing off the deep ball or sideline darts, there were flashes of the old Luck. Perhaps the biggest test the 28-year-old can pass this preseason is getting hit and popping back up. Particularly encouraging was Luck landing on his right elbow during a sack by Ravens pass rusher Terrell Suggs. "I told someone after the game, 'I'm sort of happy to get sacked by Suggs, a legit sack,'" Luck said after the game, via ESPN's Mike Wells. "I landed on my right elbow sort of reminiscent of how I injured my shoulder a couple of years ago [in Week 3 of the 2015 season]. I didn't feel anything. Didn't give it a second thought. That's a big deal for me, being able to lose that thought bubble." Lamar Jackson: I haven't 'performed at a high level' If Joe Flacco felt pressure to perform a month ago, it's all but dissipated. The veteran has looked stellar with a revamped offensive cast around him. His main competition, first-round rookie Lamar Jackson, meanwhile has struggled to make the transition. Through three preseason appearances, Jackson has flashed some playmaking ability, but overall, he's struggled as a passer. "I don't feel like I've performed at a high level yet," Jackson said following Monday night's win over the Indianapolis Colts, via ESPN's Jamison Hensley. Jackson's Monday night debut started off agonizingly slow. The rookie led three three-and-outs, completing zero of his four passes, and taking a sack. He finished the night 7-of-15 passing for 49 yards with one TD pass and 26 yards rushing.
Royale with Cheese Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 I just watched he every play by Jackson and yeah...he looks lost.

Said it a while back before the draft I wanted nothing to do with him. Mike Schoop thought I'd was unconscionable that Allen would be selected over Jackson.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 21, 2018 Posted August 21, 2018 ...guy is STILL "money"............ Ben DuBose ✔ @BenDuBose Adam Vinatieri is 45 years old, and he just made a 57-yard FG that looked like it would've been good from 65. What in the world. 8:38 PM - Aug 20, 2018

John from Riverside Posted August 22, 2018 Posted August 22, 2018 I was a champion of Lamar Jackson before the draft (I also liked Allen, Mayfield, and Darnold so I dont feel too bad VERY glad right now that we did not take Lamar Jackson at this point.....it isnt because he is not a good passer.....I really expected to see a player that would run away from NFL defenders. It looks to me like defensive linemen are chasing him down. Bills front office smart cookies nowadays
