Ravens QB situation

[maryland-bills-fan]

The league has changed.  A running QB can be contained by 5 D-linemen and blitzes to reduce his running lanes and require quick decisions. He is going to get hit more and more and might only have 3-4 more years effective in the league.  He is a poor passer.

Arguably the best qb from that draft. He needs to stay healthy. I predict he will be extended by Ravens to the highest paid qb in league. 

And that would be a losing argument you got yourself involved in.

Huntley is a flash-in-the- pan guy - - why didn't anyone draft him?

And Rosen was the greatest thing since sliced bread.  Sometimes these 'daffynitions' take time to solidify.

Huntley is not the physical specimen that Lamar is. Lamar is special, although limited. If you are going to hitch your wagon to a an extremely talented and athletic limited QB, pick the most talented one.

 

Agree. Huntley is an athletic Quarterback. Lamar is the best athlete to have ever played the position. I like Huntley. I have liked him since the 2020 East-West Shrine game when I said he could end up a serviceable NFL backup in the right situation behind a mobile starter. But there is a drop off from Lamar Jackson to Tyler Huntley, as well he played last night that is just a fact.

If the Ravens don’t pay him someone else will.

Lamar sucks.     Roll w Huntley 

 

Postseason Lamar is 1-3 with more int’s than td’s

A win is a win,  the game in fuzzy to me now...

 

I remember blood on Cam Newtons arm

I missed the game yesterday but man Huntley must have improved a lot from his previous appearances if this thread exists.

I don't think there's anybody that has watched Josh Allen play and Lamar Jackson play 

 

And think Lamar is the better quarterback

 

 

Most every Bills fan agrees 100%, but there are still a lot of Lamar fans in the press and he is one QB that when you take shots at him they can be misconstrued or one's motives questioned.

Lamar is great, but it sill might be best to let him walk.  They are in a though spot.  

[TheyCallMeAndy]

Larmar Jackson is the Tremaine Edmunds of QBs.

[DCOrange]

Lamar is great. They’d be nuts to let him leave. This isn’t a Baker Mayfield situation where it actually might make sense to move on. 

[BigAl2526]

I think Jackson will be the Ravens QB going forward.  I think Hunley is mobile enough to serve as a backup in Roman Gabriel's scheme, but he also has a more rounded skill set that gives him upside as either a reliable backup or borderline starter in a more conventional offense.

I was thinking this today and last week. The drop off between Lamar and Huntley hasn’t been anywhere near the level that I expected. I’ve even found myself watching Huntley play and thinking “Lamar doesn’t make that throw”. 

Huntley is playing within that offense and making the smart throw. Lamar doesn't do that.

 

Just thinking out loud but what would field the better and more competitive team?

 

A) Lamar Jackson

 

B) Huntley + $35M(ish) cap space + the boatload of high draft picks some team would gladly fork over for Lamar.

 

Could easily see some team like Carolina, Washington, Detroit or even Seattle if they part ways with Wilson paying a hefty price to get Lamar.

The talk I have heard in area from Baltimore fans who hang out in that crowd (they have pictures of themselves and players at parties in MD) that they believe Ravens are masking some of his illnesses calling them other things

 

What does this even mean?  What are you implying?

I Can't Even fathom that comparison.  The mind boggles.

Mostly every single player coach and media person in the league agrees 

 

I'd like to hear one person's opinion today.. in the NFL circle.. that thinks Lamar is a better quarterback than Josh Allen

 

Not a runner or explosive athlete.. a better quarterback

 

I don't think you'll find one person

The issue here will be price. There’s no doubt his agent will begin negotiations by asking for him go be the highest paid QB in the league. Where they from there is anyone’s guess, but he may even end up getting more than Josh. QB contracts are not measured by skill, but rather when they sign them. They keep going higher and higher. And this could very well end up being a horrible contract for Baltimore.
