Easier to do then stop a Hot Passing game. Well, I'll take the win - as Josh said, there's no style points in the playoffs - but I don't think this game tells us a whole lot about offensive football theory in general. The Ravens lost because of one horrid snap and one really good defensive play by Taron Johnson. OK, you can pin part of that one on Lamar, but it was still really well done by Taron. These are two really good football teams, and very often a play or two will be the difference. Just like it was tonight. 1

H2o Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) Jackson is a quality young man, who is an amazing athlete, and enjoyed a lot of success. He's still only 24. He's going to have to get better reading defenses and as a QB in general though before he will go any further. You shut him down running and he crumbles. It's been this way for years now. I actually think Roman may be more of a hindrance in the long run if they want to actually develop Lamar. Edited January 17, 2021 by H2o

He’s got flaws, (like most young players) but he’s a top 10 QB in this league and is under 25 years of age. Edited January 17, 2021 by BillsFan130

That year it was a gimmick offense that had not been figured out yet....the Bills certainly figured out how to stop him today, and I'm sure the 30 other teams will be watching the film of this game and by next year all teams will have his number. 1

He’s a one truck pony at QB. I think the NFL has figured him out and he didn’t adjust his game this season The Ravens are in a tough spot and I don't envy them at all. Do they pay $40M/year when he's more of a runner than QB and needs a great defense to succeed?

Bills figured out how to stop him hmm. Not like the huge wind had anything to do with that? Did you not notice that Allen wasn’t on his A game tonight? ..

I'm not trying to dump on him. I'm just saying it is looking more and more like his style cannot carry you further than a participation trophy in the playoffs. Elite athleticism only gets you so far. Eventually you have to sit back and read the field and beat the coverage with your throw. He can't do it. 1

Totally agree theyre not really trusting him with the offense to change calls up at the line etc he just goes out there and plays and does everything their offense asks him to do
whatdrought Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 That was Jackson’s first redzone int... fitting.

You can be happy beyond belief that the Bills won and still offer legitimate criticism of Lamar Jackson.

So did his first half decision making. 3 times he could of easily thrown for a first down and instead threw the ball deep You have to give it to Baltimore's defense.. they are the real deal

TroutDog Posted January 17, 2021 Posted January 17, 2021 I stand by what I said way back when in the beginning of this thread: the Bills have literally written the script to beat Lamar. The comparison between him and Josh, tonight notwithstanding, should be over. Just my opinion. 3 2 1
