When the Ravens are playing their best football, they’re arguably the most dangerous team in the league.

I would call him slightly better than average passer.  His athleticism helps him tremendously but as he ages he won’t be nearly as good in the passing game, which will make him miss a solid 5 years before he gets to career end manning level.

Top3 in any/a, value over avg, success rate, EPA/drop back, and win% added

 

There is no logical way of saying he's not an excellent passer

Forgive me for not being impressed with chucking it to wide-open Mark Andrews.

You need to work on being a hater like I am

[Ralonzo]

How is he not down by contact?

 

Review it and take the 10 second runoff too

Where's the 10 second runoff for replay ?

[HappyDays]

What in the world is Tony Romo talking about? That is not close to a fumble. Even after slow motion replay he is stating his case.

Every scoring play is reviewed, isn't it? Shouldn't the false start be picked up on?

Expand  

It is reviewed but they'd never overturn something like that sadly.

Wth is romo talking about doubling down on the fumble bs

Lamar is such a mediocre passer. I don't care how many bombs he throws. 

Expand  

He's making plays passing this year that he didn't make before. He's not at all mediocre. Having said that I still doubt that he could beat a playoff team with his arm if he had to (and I think he will have to). I'll believe that when I see it.

[DapperCam]

Sad day where people are holding their breath when Tucker is kicking a 50 yarder. Dude used to be automatic.

I can't hate on Lamar 

 

His game is unique in the way Allen's is...it looks unconventional so he gets similarly criticized

 

The real beef folks have imo is that the ravens went all in on maxing out his game wrt personnel+scheme fit ...that's not Lamar's fault, it's a credit to baltimore

Loved some Iran Barkley back in the day.

He was a bad dude!

I'll forever be a hater for the way he stole an MVP from Allen last season

That ball did get a little loose for a second when he was changing hands but it was a micro second.

Romo is a freaking eagle

Even after the slow motion replay makes it obvious, he grumbles "there's enough there to take another look, that's all I'm saying." Alright man. Thanks for the objective commentary.

With Nantz trying to tell him that, no, there really wasn't.

To me his arm looks great situationally. When the run game is clicking and his receivers are getting open he looks great. I agree he is making some throws this season I’ve never seen him throw before. 
 

But if the Ravens get down in the playoffs against a good team (and usually all the teams in the playoffs are good teams). I have zero confidence he can use his arm to throw his team back into the game. I don’t feel that way about Mahomes, Allen or Burrow.

I don't care that he mentioned he thought he saw something, it was just weird how he wouldn't let it go.
