I’ve been holding onto this all season.  But I like Lamar.  I love the way he plays.  I don’t think he should have won the MVP last year and don’t think he should this year.  I also don’t think he’s on the same tier as Josh (and Pat).  But he seems like a cool dude and unfortunately due to circumstances Ravens/Bills fans are forced to fight.

 

Even his quote from the other day saying he isn’t friends with QBs he wants to win (I kinda want my QB to have that old school mentality).  Sucks that the playoff choker narrative will stick to him.  But I’d rather it be on him than Josh.

 

Hats off to the Ravens, I’ve been confident, but their run game has scared me all week.

 

Go Bills

He didn't choke. Elite QB

What is remarkable is how much better he gets every year. In the last 3 years he has done amazing things to correct his flaws. It's amazing. 

yea I haven’t seen enough of his games this year to comment confidently but the stat line was impressive and what I saw before tonight seemed like steps forward - 

 

I wasn’t sure how much was change in his play vs having Henry, some receiver help, etc… but clearly to finish the year with that TD:Int ratio, he’s doing something right

I don’t think he outplayed Josh specifically due to the two turnovers.  What I will say is his offensive coordinator treated him like the MVP of the league and it’s what allowed them to almost make the comeback.  Our offensive coordinator did not treat Josh like the MVP and it showed.

I thought Brady’s second half playcalling was awful. He basically called a plan that Trubisky could’ve run. It was safe, and borderline alarming. There didn’t seem to be any attempt to go for the kill shot. Happy for this win… but gonna need a lot more next week in KC.

Lamar had an 85 qbr according to ESPN. One of the best rated games of the playoffs. Was I watching the same game as espn ? His two bone headed turnovers lost them the game? 85 qbr!? Maybe 50 ... but 85!?

He didn't take chances. He played confident. Whether that was knowing he had Henry to push the ball a little and lean on with Hill as a changeup or whether he just took a step back to realize he shouldn't do it all and run himself ragged.

 

His completion percentage was amazing in part because he was so patient. That OL played strong and was a wall for him to wait behind. Teams didn't rush him as much as they may have a Stafford or Russ Wilson even because he can make a break and take it 20 yards. Because he could sit back there and be patient he took some sacks but his completion percentage went up and his sacks went down. Last year there were more sacks and other poor plays because the OL and Jackson not being as good as he was this year.

 

Jackson played better this year than any other year in his career.

MY personal opinion.. The dude was just at the podium.. and it was "WE" need to do this better "WE" cant be turning the ball over..

 

If That Was JA it would of been him taking accountability saying "I cant turn the ball over" "I did things I could of done differently"

 

Lamar..  WE WE WE WE...

JA I I I I

 

Lamar has no accountability.  Horrible look for Lamar.. the playoff choak artist.. .. 

Well, it was "we".  Lamar & Andrews.  😄

He will win a superbowl or 2.  Hall of fame, for sure.  

I honestly don't think he will win a super bowl. Hof most definitely with his 3 MVP's.

Ravens and Lamar are way better than j gave them credit for.  Props to them.  We are lucky to escape with a win?

 

The Ravens led for under 6 minutes in the first quarter then never led again. Don't think that's lucky.

Josh didn't even really throw. The game plan was extremely conservative. Outplayed? Lol

He played well enough to win tonight.   His team made a lot of mistakes.

As did he as well. He's great don't get me wrong. But once Henry is cooked (has to be soon one would think) it's back to the drawing board for them. Getting through the AFC gauntlet is so hard.

Nah....did you see his post game presser....curse words throughout, and he couldn't be bothered to take off that stupid ski-mask like thing he was wearing.....he looked and sounded like a classless idiot.....million dollar talent with a two cent brain.

If the Bills were down 2 scores, I guarantee Allen would have been throwing it around too. Lamar got them into that situation in the first place.
