As a Ravens fan, I applaud the stupidity of the GMs who didn't go after Lamar. Well done, guys, well done ...
😂😂😂
As Bill's fan I'll take Josh Allen he's better than Lamar Jackson. So good job Brandon Bean.
Josh has a higher interception to TD average and lower pass completion yds. average than Lamar, I'll give him that. 😆
@@The-Contractor josh's gap between his tds and his interceptions is soooo much higher than lamar's.
@@TheTree1 27 TDs with 15 Interceptions vs. 19 TDs with 7 Interceptions.
We (Ravens) realized we fucked up sp bad that Steve Bisciotti got involved. He basically stopped Odell from getting on a plane to the Jets to convince him to help them make right with Lamar. Eric DeCosta even came out and publicly acknowledged that they’d failed Lamar in the passing game and the way it was structured.
Lamar is such a cool and genuine dude(Bears fan here btw, lol), I wish him the most success and good health as humanly possible. He's a good human being, and a fantastic athlete.
hey my condolences mr bears fan i genuinely feel for fans of some of these teams who have had practically no success in my entire lifetime
things are finally turning the corner I think, no matter what they decide with Fields they either stick with a decided franchise guy or end up with a lot of young talent, the team taught me to not take sports too seriously and just enjoy it @@Kiz-qh4gf
They were so worried about his agent....smh the constant disrespect is embarrassing. Man neutralized the 49ers pass rush with ease. And stayed in the pocket 80% of the time
their offense weren't all that. It was the defense and the tipped passes they capitalized that ultimately decided that game.
@@DreadPageshow old are you?
If the offense wasn't all that tag us to a time mahomes, Allen,burrows or Brady or Montana scored on seven straight possessions 😂😂😂😂😂
Against a top 5 defense at that!
Since what Lamar did was so so unimpressive tag us and remind us when your favorite quarterback did that!
@@DreadPages Fans like you who sit and watch TV all day and hear paid off analyst push that bs you writing is pathetic.
You hurt cause Lamar made niners defense look trash and purdy was trash against a top 5 defense.
Did purdy score on seven straight possessions?
Did purdy have 0 ints?
Did purdy read the ravens defense the way Lamar read niners defense?
Niners ran over 30 different coverages that game they ran over 6-8 different coverages Lamar 2min drive before the half.
And Todd&Lamar had a answer for every defensive play call.
So take that hating a ZZ b I t!!
@@DreadPagesand if you ever learned football or knew how to play tip passes are a skill!
JJ was great at tipping the ball cause it was his skill.
You never playing in the league poo pooing a skill the ravens has mastered as a team just by keeping there eyes on the quarterback is lame!
Cowards like you
When you give a team that many chances with 4 int there bound to tire out a defense it’s common sense. Lamar will be back to losing the first round he plays in the playoffs don’t worry about it.
J.J. Watt spittin' facts. Real recognize real.
Was sigmund Freud spitting facts, when he say, yall dream and think your Lamar color. Lol
Funny, and might not be cap, why? The greatest qb 7 rings deep dont get this kinda run. Heck jack Nicholson has the most pga tour championship wins, but all you know is tiger.
But ok , I get it.
@@kingshark3503 what
Someone said something that already agrees with me. Cliche and stuff!
@@kingshark3503bro really brought race up for no reason 💀💀
@@kingshark3503most majors...not tour wins. Golf ain't your sport. Plus...Golf is more open now and the Golden Bear didn't have courses changed to disadvantage him soooooo yeah Tiger's the greatest. 3 less majors...way more tour wins...2nds 3rds and cuts made consecutively
Ravens fan here. I was saying the exact same thing as Watt last February/March. I kept asking how the GM's from Atlanta, Washington, Las Vegas, the Jets could actually send out season tickets invoices without trying to get Lamar. JJ is right! They should all be fired for not even making an attempt!!
they would’ve wanted an arm, leg, eyes, torso and everything for him and u know it. The teams would not only have to give multiples first but probably some players too and not to mention take a huge cap hit it’s just not worth it. I’m sure all those teams would’ve been knocking had he just become a free agent but the draft capital from trading for him on top of the huge cap hit makes no sense unless they’re a win now team and we all know none of those teams are win now.
Falcons fan here, we wanted him, but we knew Ravens were never letting Lamar go. All we would have done is effected the salary ranges
I mean teams could have made an offer but Baltimore was never letting him go Eric Decasta would have been fired if he let Lamar Jackson go
Because Lamar only works with a good team.
@@Freerider93because you’ve seen Lamar with other teams🤔 you sound dumb
They don't want players representing themselves and keeping all their money. These owners, lawyers, and agents are all in cahoots with each other gate keeping smh
Yep😂
Having a great offensive coordinator is so vastly underrated. Monkin destroyed at UGA and now Lamar looks like himself again.
More importantly, they fired their Strength and Conditioning coach and now they finally don't have 25 players on IR like they did the last few years.
@@to4316that’s the answer, when i see teams with an injury bug for 2-3 straight seasons they need to fire the whole training staff.
This is a fact I’m glad Lamar isn’t always putting his body on the line when he doesn’t have to. Greg Roman always used his running ability instead of his arm more. I know it got him an MVP but once he got to the playoffs everyone knew what was coming so they always had a spy for him. With the new offense it’s hard to guess what’s coming a pass run or play action.
I think no matter what there's been a lot of positive for the Ravens and Lamar. New OC (less Lamar runs though they can still utilize it obviously...less QB injury chance) drafting Zay Flowers (Lamar wanted him and it's worked out well) signing OBJ. A full season of Roquan and Queen being in a contract year. More surprised they didn't get talked about more but maybe that's just because I'm a biased Ravens fan!
*sad eagle noises*
Falcons had Lamar in their grasp, and chose Desmond Ridder...
😂😂😂😂
Lamar was never leaving Baltimore lmao
With Lamar they’d easily win that division. Such a weak division and the falcons have a good team. 3x top 8 draft picks at skill positions.. Pitts was the biggest TE prospect in a decade and Bijan went 8 in a time where even the best RBs don’t go before picks 25-35. Lamar is the dual threat they need. Lamar could elevate all three of those young talents and instantly they’re a division winner
Ravens had the opportunity to match any offer put on Lamar. he was never leaving. if we offered a contract we did the ravens job for them and we werent gonna do that. also if we got lamar we couldnt have afforded all the defensive upgrades we made.
They never had a chance. Lamar only has one other team in his mind, and that’s his childhood team: Dallas, and that wasn’t ever gonna happen.
Thank you for this statement JJ. EDC was never going to let Lamar leave but to have a MVP level QB seemingly out there willing to negotiate with other teams and NO NFL TEAM reaches out to is pure idiocy. There are 10 teams that should’ve reached out at the least.
I want to see JJ as a permanent co host on the show…
I wanna like your comment but it has 69 likes... so take this comment as a like
*nice*
Very intelligent guy
Lamar was never leaving Baltimore. It was a sausage contest between Lamar and the organization to see who goes soft first 😂
Besides the point atleats put a offer on
This is the truth. The organizations in the league knew that this was nothing but a couple awkwardly arguing in public.
@223Luciano all that would of happened was teams puts out offer let's say 300 mill total ravens would give lamar 310 or 10 more mill in guaranteed money ravens were just hoping somebody would low ball lamar
Idk, I think he would have bounced if they didn’t come up with the right guaranteed number 😂 I really didn’t want that to happen. The man is big time.
flag on the play man .... pause
Lamar is 🐦⬛nation baby
Loving his performance this year
So hyped to be a Ravens fan!!
As a Patriots fan, I love the Pat McAfee show. Entertaining and honest without being offensive. And never had to make sh1t up or manufacture drama to fill air time.
That's what Rodgers is for. "Hey we don't like drama, but here is my friend who just happens to be an attention starved diva with an IQ of 90." It's like Bum Fights but slightly less ethical. Smart move by Pat.
@@meepk633lol so true

😂😂😂😂
JJ is single handily the worst part of the show he has no business being on guy sucks
@kayjaiy well said!
@MargielaMadmanVSVP Adam schefter have a new burner or something? Cuz if schefty isn't the worst to you, then you are either schefty or, you suck as a person lol.
It was only sketchy 'cause the owners colluded against Lamar. Think about it. The GMs have nothin' to do with it. Lamar with *NO* agent would've run up the market. Which they made sure it wouldn't happen.
If I remember right I think during the draft he was in that the Raiders had 2 opportunities to draft him. I was smh as everyone let him drop. Like did most of the GM’s just look at his college highlight reel and didn’t pay attention to his workouts and properly assess his ability to be an NFL quarterback? I said it then and it was that watch because Gruden is gonna pay for this one. What’s even more troubling is that Gruden was supposed to be a good judge of QB’s too. Anyways, I always love watching Lamar play. This year especially as he stands fearlessly in the pocket more and shows elite Quarterback abilities. Good for him
Youre wrong, Raiders only had one pick in the first round in 2018. The Raiders had Carr and at that time there was no reason to replace him. The assessments of him werent wrong because he did have an accuracy issue when compared to most of the other QB's drafted before him. Lamar is a beast. I like when everybody was saying he couldnt pass a couple seasons ago, so he stayed in the pocket and threw for almost 450 yds the next game.
I never seem so many teams make an announcements and put out a dam bulletin report like hey we not taking Lamar. I mean bottom feeder teams with no hope like ATL saying it loud and proud. Thats why I think it was a conspiracy against Lamar. When have teams ever made public statements and release statements to the media saying their not interested in a player. Its youre not interested cool but why call into ESPN to tell them to release a statement about it lol
Because everyone knew that the Ravens were never actually going to let him leave Baltimore
they were probably mad that the Ravens were toying with them. instead of being humilated they couldnt get Lamar, the next best thing is to tell the world they were never pursuing him
@@ernestogastelum9123 they were toying with Lamar, not the other teams
Cause he is a non factor in the off season
Lamar with proper weapons and play calling 🤩 wow he my MVP
Right lol imagine what could happen lol
I get that Lamar didn't get picked. Neither did Aaron Rogers.and Dan Marino. Scouts suck at picking QBs. However, it was criminal what Baltimore did to him till this year. He's not a battering ram and Greg Roman almost ruined him
@glebert1
Rogers and Marino weren't as OBVIOUSLY talented as LJ and there wasn't as much tape out there back then compared to when Lamar came out.
I'm not an NFL professional on any level- but after seeing Lamar on TV during his college days, I KNEW- every team in need of a QB shoulda been gunning for him.
Imagine me as a New Orleans saints fan when my organization went for Derek carr instead
Lamar could never work with us, besides, we got our own running QB. We could never afford what Jackson wanted to get paid. Why pay a guy that much, but have no cap space to help him? Carr is not Brees, but he is our best option for how much we had to offer.
Here's the list of teams that publicly did not want Lamar Jackson when he made himself available.
Panthers
Washington
Raiders
Dolphins
Falcons
Washington, Panthers and Falcons had plenty of cash on hand to make an offer.
Thank you. These are the teams that deserve to fire the GM. Other teams are fine
Dolphins have tua they wouldn’t pay Lamar when they have their franchise QB.
the clown from the raiders is already gone, better late then never
@@phillyphil4217 If Lamar was a Patriot he would have been on the Raiders lol. Thank god McDummy is gone.
Oh, so a bunch of teams that suck this year and have terrible management and coaching. What a surprise!
(except for the dolphins ofc)
Last year I was saying this to everyone. Any team without a top tier starting QB should have offered the $250M fully guaranteed Lamar wanted. 5 years of instant playoff relevance
Yeah, Lamar Jackson plays lights out come playoffs. Look at all the AFC Championships and Super Bowls he's won. When people talk playoff wins, they are definitely talking Lamar Jackson.
@@ChuckPike I hope you come back and laugh at this comment in 10 years when Lamar has 2+ superbowls and a dozen playoff wins
@jove6407 You're telling me he doesn't have a dozen playoff wins and multiple Super Bowl Championships? Lamar stans make Jackson sound like he's the greatest player to ever put on a pair of shoulder pads. How can someone be the greatest NFL player of all time and not win in the playoffs? I guess I don't understand American football well enough. Silly me thought playoff wins and championships were important, like in other sports.
Instant playoff relevance? Lamar has 1 playoff win. Never made it past the divisional round. Lamar has had a top 10 defense every year(2nd this year) and he gets praised like he does all the work. Never seen such a mid QB, got overhyped to this level. Lamar is 15th in passing yards and 14th in TDs. Lamar had the number 1 scoring offense, top 5 defense, number 1 seed, and had 3TOs at home and got bounced from the playoffs by Ryan tannehill. Lamar is not worth 250 mill🤣🤣🤣
@@jove6407i doubt it bro. lamar just folds bro it is what it is
I loved this man JJ his whole career even tho I never been a Texan fan . I never seen a rusher built like that
Respect for putting Raheem Mostart in the convo he definitely deserves it 🎯💯
I’m so glad this is being talked about now. The disrespect shown to Lamar since he came into the league is what made me a HUGE Lamar fan. The only people who’ve ever viewed him in the right light have been majority of Ravens fans. It started since the draft, when he was told he should try & be wide reciever. Which is a huge slap in the face to any black athlete at QB. Just cause at the time he may have been a better runner than passer doesn’t mean you should try and alter their career. Did he need some work as a passer? For sure, but he’s gotten better at it year after year & has turned into an all around QB who is number 1 or number 2 every year! It’s always been him or Mahomes since he came into the league when you talk about the total package! Even with the year Jalen Hurts had last year, he’s no Lamar Jackson & has a long way to go. If you really watch football it’s not even close watching them play. Doesn’t matter if he was “never leaving Baltimore” every team should been on there hands & knees trying to get him because players at the QB position as good as him don’t come along often & he automatically changes the trajectory of your team by having him.
Hear me out. Maybe, just maybe, people doubt Lamar Jackson because he's injured all the time and hasn't won in the playoffs. Just think about it. Jalen Hurts has won in the playoffs and been to a Super Bowl, and he gets tons of respect. I'm just saying.
@@ChuckPike I hear you & respect your opinion… I just don’t see it, Lamar has kept himself fairly healthy even with all the running he’s been doing. I believe last year is the only time he’s ever missed real time due to injury, & everybody knows it wasn’t that bad he just wasn’t gonna play until he got paid. & no slack to Jalen, I think he’s good. Definitely needs a lot of work still, he benefits by having 2 number 1 receivers in AJ Brown & Devonta Smith. Which most teams don’t have, put Lamar on the Eagles or give him 2 number 1’s. He would’ve won the Super Bowl for the Eagles last year.
@JapeMole Lamar Jackson isn't getting paid "regular QB" money.
@chuckpike9350 what's funny is burrow and Herbert have both missed more time than lamar jackson has.
@JapeMole excuse me, Rodgers is a 4x MVP and superbowl winner. Lamar is NOWHERE near that. As for Burrow, Burrows contract wasnt disputed by the Bengals. They paid and the narrative moved to who hes going to lose now cuz of his contract. Herbert was the same way. Especially with Joey Bosa's contract as well.
The issue with Lamar and his contract was because he chose to make it a drama. No agent. Pushing for more money guarantees. Once he got signed, nobody cared. People were fine with him staying on the ravens.
The bigger qb contract controveries were DJones in NY. And Wilson over in Denver. And obvs, Watson in CLE but most ppl decided to just not look at him at all.
Wanted him so bad in NY he’s my second favorite player in the league
Im a saints fan. But i absolutely love lamar and the ravens. I go to BAT for lamar in arguments when people say hes overrated. Ill get heated for that man.
Y would u even debate someone who says Lamar is overrated? They’re either a hater or a casual. Or both. 😂
I'm a Dolphins fan and always felt that Lamar and Tua got treated poorly by sports media.
Sounds like you want his BBD in your keyster!
The thing you’re missing is the Ravens were going to take care of Lamar. They didn’t want a disgruntled player. They basically told him it’s ok if you don’t have an agent, we won’t try to take advantage of you. They basically gave him the Jalen Hurts contract plus a little more.
Stop bringing logic to the masses of idiots.
Yeah, but they took their sweet time, though
The one person who I know, without a doubt, was trying to scheme a way to get Lamar, was the one guy who was never gonna get him: Belichick.
Lol he would have made him a wr a RB a te and ran one trick play with him throwing. A side show. Cause belilck runs a circus not a team.
@@QuietVillainBelichick's favorite qb is Lamar he's said that multiple times
He is the definition of MVP
PFFT
Fax. He’s been the best player in the league since his 2nd year, 2019. 🤌
im pissed to this day that the patriots passed on him. to learn from brady and then take the league over?? so bummed. he was one of my favorite players to watch during college. incredible tape.
I don’t know one REAL ravens fan who didn’t want the briefcase given to him
Then just goes to show there are a lot of REAL dumb fans.
People love to want QBs to get huge pay days, then question why the team sucks when they can’t sign other talent to needed positions.
@@nunyabizness6662 NO. I’ve been a fan of the ravens for 15 plus years. I was against them giving Joe Flacco all that money because team had great key players that helped us stay a playoff team from 08-14. We could no longer afford to keep those players that help us stay there. When we got Jackson, we no longer had anything to lose, which is why the team was BUILT AROUND HIM AND HIS STRENGTHS. Again the team was built for his run game. You pay talent to stay, especially when they are the game change for your team. Focus on your team. If it doesn’t work for yours doesn’t mean it won’t work in other places.
@@taurus3alexis paying any QB 50 mil a year doesn’t work for any team.
Nah there is definitely a content of ravens fans that don’t like Lamar for one reason or another. And they were for sure saying to trade him
Lamar was my favorite qb before tua and is a great guy. Also nice seeing a florida native absolutely ballin and hope he has many great seasons to come.
“What im right here” 😂😂
McAfee is legit one of my favorite PEOPLE 🔥
After yesterday's win vs the dolphins...this aged very well
Imagine if he had a legit number 1 WR (Zay is not there yet this early), Mark, and no injuries to the RBs.
I’m so happy we finally got a deal done!
“WHUT… im right here!” 😂😂😂
I really hope he wins a ring cause then the “carried by the defense” will be all time cope
That’s a damn good bet! But defense is scary! On the evidence of the game against 49ers, nobody in the league can hang with ravens, NOBODY
They don’t say that about Burrow. His defense carries him in every playoff game.
You will stay hoping because he aint getting there
@@normalposter6072 lmao that how 49ers and Cowboys fans felt when they dominating teams. yeah you guys beat a great team, but the Ravens are still vulnerable like any other team
Add in breakout offensive player of the year and breakout defensive player of the year. Goes to guys who aren’t up for MVP, ROTY, OPOY and DPOY. Perfect example would be Geno last season and Baker this season. Not injured so technically shouldn’t be up for comeback POY and most improved just shouldn’t be a thing. Geno and baker aren’t improving. They just found the right team, coach and scheme.. things clicked! It’s a great way to award guys who had a good year but not good enough for MVP.
Brilliant idea
Thank you for telling it how it is JJ!!!
I laugh at all the people who said Lamar isn't a NFL QB. I was begging the Cowboys to sign him. Cowboys haven't had a top notch QB since Jimmy Johnson was coach. Enough said with that.
How no one went in for him is Haram in itself...🙄
Lamar isnt businessman he is a business. Man let him handle his business damn
FACTS!!
Been listening to the Herd for a long minute, enjoy dipping in here though. If I was the 30-40 demo might make the switch. Way entertaining.
Imagine Lamar wins MVP and a Super Bowl and I’m pretty sure he would win Super Bowl MVP too
The Pats had a chance to draft him. I will never forgive that move!
Every team did

Where is the JJ Watt full interview clip? : )
@JJ Watt,
*Word-Up!*
Except the fact Baltimore was never going to let lamar leave and the other teams knew that so why do Baltimores work for them
This what "experts" and fans seem to not understand. Lamar was never leaving Baltimore made it perfectly clear they wanted him back that was literally a message to the other 31 teams.
Lamar was never leaving, it was a game between him n Baltimore n they both win if he goes to the Super Bowl. They’re winning anyways.
Having Mostert on my fantasy team was a steal this year 😂 5th round pickup and the rest was history lol
I had him last year, Raheem the dream is what I called him, still doing it this year too. Lmao
Yes JJ 🙌🏾
I think all the GMs made it clear they were out on Lamar not because they wouldn't love to have him, but because they weren't going to do the negotiating with Lamar for the Ravens considering the Ravens had the opportunity to match whatever offer Lamar accepted from another team since he was on the non-exclusive franchise tag.
Yeah, but no teams even reached out to talk to him whether it was for contract talk or just to talk football and get a sense of who he is. I mean its actually baffling that no one reached out because look what he is doing now
@@silverytc1566 because everyone knew it was a waste of time. Everyone knew the Ravens were never going to let him go. The only deal the Ravens might not have matched was a fully guaranteed deal, but no one was going to go full Cleveland.
@@btbarr16 I agree, but at least try. Like you never know what could’ve happened
I think that lost in this discussion is the fact that the teams could’ve also traded for Lamar. So even in the whole, “Ravens match any offer” discussion, teams could’ve circumvented that by trading 3 firsts or even 4 and there are people who will say that that’s too much, but some of those teams will likely not find the QB of their future in those drafts and would’ve been better off at the very least, trying to trade for him. Just a call to the Ravens, not a single team even placed one 😭
@@jahvedcole exactly. Like not even a call to entertain the idea
I'm stunned at how people talked so much trash about Lamar... Since his draft night!!! Ravens fans cried when they chose him over Flacco.
Lamar played like MEH in 2021 and was just above average in 2022 before getting hurt for a few games. Ppl get so shortsighted at Lamar's situation. He signed and then is playing much better than his last 2 seasons. Almost like they forgot his 2021 and 2022 seasons and only remembered his 2019 and 2020 seasons. And ofc, his current
What the ravens were either afc north leader or#1 in the afc b4 he was hurt and was on pace for another mvp BOTH years....
Not sure what you are talking about?? Big Ravens fan here… everyone I know was excited to get Lamar playing and OK to sit Flacco.
@@CJINW not me
@@SlickBlackCadillac I feel so bad for Ray Lewis, Suggs, and many other members of our great defense that struggled so many years without having a quarterback that can electrify the offense. How many pro wide receivers have we had before Lamar?? Our great defense was wasted.
Pat: JJ
JJ: WATT...😂😂😂
The whole Lamar Jackson story in regards to his contract has so many layers. As an athlete you are your own business. So we kept business in the business's hands and did business strictly with the business if that makes sense. That's what they don't like to see. They don't like to see us doing things and having access to information that they thought they would have. It's BS
If the lions had traded to sign him, we would have given up picks that we needed. I'm fine with it.
Soooooo glad for Lamar and nfl fans that he didn’t go to DET. 🚧🚧🚧🚧🚧
@@newagain9964 looks like everyone is happy.
The more he develops his pure passing game the more lethal his ability to run becomes. He reall really should get together with Steve Young in the offseason. Not only does SY have the career to back him up he is one of the biggest LJ fans there is.
I would say its cause gms like to draft their own guy at qb and be right about it rather than pay one from the outside a whole bunch of money which might not even work well in ur system.. it most likely a ego thing tbh wanting to be the guy that drafted a guy, not bought ur way to a guy
Yesssssss JJ tell them
Roquan doesn’t have an agent either. Players love playing for the Baltimore front office and coaching staff because they EMPOWER their players to focus on what they do best and win.
One game of getting carried by the best defense in the league and we crowning bro?
Casual.
I guess he never won MVP huh ?
One game? Dude is 20-1 against the NFC. He owns an entire conference.
you don’t watch the NFL much huh
WOW - SOMEONE ACTUALLY WATCHES AND IS ABLE TO PUT TOGETHER WHAT THEY SAW INSTEAD OF WHAT THE MEDIA TOLD THEM WHAT TO THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY TOLD HIM WHAT THEY SAW -
JJ knows what the best Xmas movie is. Respect!
Not just the GMs but the executives, office staff, etc. Get'em all outta there.
every team should have offered him 5 year / $250M guaranteed. Even if he got hurt once or twice, it's not like your cutting your franchise quarterback. Half of the league's QBs got hurt and all are still on the roster there is no difference. Just don't give him a no - trade clause. It was guaranteed playoffs for any team that signed him.
He was never leaving Baltimore
i know, but the least other teams coulda done was offer him a big guaranteed contract that baltimore woulda be forced to match, it was disappointing that literally no team even the ones that need QB did anything@@DeosPraetorian
He got blackballed by “them” and that’s why teams publicly denied interest. You can’t let him succeed because the other players will follow in step.
FACTS
Or he was too big of a risk. He regressed the 2 years after his mvp campaign, so top dollar contract plus 2 first rounders for a guy whose play has declined was too much
@danielmallory9974 you're right, rolling with Desmond "dogshitpiss" Ridder was the way 😅
@@djmohab2 lol it's so easy to sit here after Lamar has been playing like this and say "shoulda done it" fact is, he played just ok 2 seasons in a row and miss 4+ games. Giving him a fully guaranteed contract after that would've been so asinine, not even the ravens who LOVE him would do it
@danielmallory9974 yeah, give it to a rapist who didn't play for 2 years instead
They should do a best player for each position
its because the owners are in cahoots. they dont want quarterback salaries going through the roof so they dont pay the massive contracts.
Teams not inquiring at all is wild, but there's no chance in hell EDC was letting Lamar walk. He let Lamar find out his value, and he did just that.
He was on the non-exclusive franchise tag. Which means any offer he accepted from another team the Ravens could match and keep him. No GM believed the Ravens weren't going to match whatever offer they made. GMs of other teams basically would have just been doing the contract negotiations on behalf of the Ravens since they could swoop in and say, "yeah we'll match that." So all those GM saying they weren't interested in Lamar was really them telling the Ravens, "we're not going to do your work for you."
Well Lamar is good, but hasn't won anything yet. To give 3 1st rd picks and more, 50 mil+/year for a guy who gets injured and hasn't led his team to any meaningful wins still wouldn't be worth it today. You can win with Brock Purdy or Jalen hurts
No I don't think I'm too worried about it.
Two first round picks +50 m a year is steep but yeah the people saying they weren’t interested is wild.
Lamar was never leaving. The Ravens could've and would've matches any offer sheet he signed and it was SOOOO obvious to anyone who was actually paying attention. Why would a team waste their time essentially just doing the contract negotiations for the Ravens, not to mention having to deal with all the extra media attention they would've had because they tried to get him but didn't. I'm so sick of this whole "they never even tried to get him" narrative that simply jusy ignores half of the facts
The Ravens organization made themselves look like fools for even making it seem like Lamar could go somewhere else. A talent like Lamar is supposed to be locked in before the ink dries, and they were being dumbasses for creating an atmosphere that could even allow those dumb narratives to come up.
Wouldn't it make sense for a team to negotiate a hefty deal that the Ravens have to match? They would either get Lamar, or stick the Ravens with a huge contract. Not that the contract wasn't already huge, but it's hard to believe another team couldn't have added a few million per year to the contract.
@@mugenchamplooo Lamar wanted a fully/mostly guaranteed deal and the Ravens didn't want to do that, so they basically just said "go out there and find one and even if you do were just going to match it anyway"
@@BetleyIsland36 yes and it was an unnecessary and unprofessional move on the organization's part. You dont play contract games with the fondation of your franchise who already won an MVP. KC didnt make mahomes hop through unnecessary hoops for his money, nor did Philly for Jalen. Hell, Cleveland gave DeShaun all his GUARANTEED money before even playing a second for them. QBs on Lamar's level or below didnt have to do what he did for their money, thats the problem for me.
@@matthewtrout1440 you also have to think of all the extra drama that creates behind the scenes. If a team decided that they wanted to make that offer that they KNEW would immediately be matched, how can they then try and tell the team that they believe in the QB they already have if they just activately tried to replace them. Then your left with a situation like the Falcons had after their failed attempt at landing Watson made Matt Ryan request a team and left them having to start Marcus Mariota week 1. Is it worth making the Ravens spend an extra couple of million to create this big media storm and add a ton of locker room drama when they inevitably don't land him?
The only knock I have against Lamar is his playoff performance. 🤕🤕🤕
He ain’t played in the playoffs in 2 years dog let’s wait and see how this year goes first
Didn't he have over 500 yards in total offense when he got eliminated by the titans
As a Ravens fan, same. Hopefully this year will be different.
Lamar has 2 of the highest qbr’s in playoff history… stop talking out your neckk stupidd
Monse Balonos is not a racist. However, she did use her "QUARTERBACKY" skills to sneak across the border like the goal line 😅😅😅 ALLEDGLEY
Black tee cleaannn Pat
He has 24 total tds to 13 total turnovers. He has an elite defense. He isn't playing better than his 2019 season and even that season was a down year for qbs. Josh allen has 40 tds to 18 total turnovers. Lamars td to turnover ratio is currently 1.85 tds to 1 turnover. Josh allen is 2.22 tds to 1 turnover. Allen should be the front runner. Hell it's hysterical that lamar finally just passed kirk cousins in passing tds, and kirk has been hurt since week 8! 😂
Did you not hear what JJ said? It's not about his stats because yes, he is under performing compared to his 2019 year, but if you actually watch him play, he has incredible value for his team. He is the best player on the Ravens and a HUGE reason they are 12-3. Since he isn't playing as well as 2019, he won't get a unanimous MVP, but he can still get regular
Josh Allen is the reason his team has the record they have in the first place. His terrible play in the beggining of the year. He just "won" a game with 97 passing yards. He himself said he didnt do anything that game. He just didnt lose the game, but he also wasnt the reason they won. Take Lamar off the Ravens, and they lose. Its been proven. Repeatedly. Josh Allen throws way too many picks. Go compare their career stats, and then check back. Notice how Josh is always runner up for MVP? Hes never been the best player in the league. Hes always "close". Lamar won a UNANIMOUS MVP. Only he and Tom Brady have ever done that.
@@silverytc1566 Lamar hand the ball to Gus edwards at the 1 yard line for tds. Lamar would have at least 9 more touchdowns if he just threw 1 yard passes. Or ran it in himself. He doesnt care about stats. Hes not a stat padder. Whats the Ravens record? 12-3 thats the point. Win the game. Not stat pad. Whats the Bills record? Asking for a friend. Josh can have 60 touchdowns, whats the point if you lose the damn game? Hes not the MVP.
@@MpoweredBMW lamar won the mvp when the only other qb to throw 30 tds that year was winston who had 30 interceptions as well moron. Dude lamars defense is like top 5. Put allen on that ravens team they have the same record lmfao
MVP not most td staties
Overrated QB still. Ravens organization should be fired for overpaying him
Imagine the Falcons with Lamar, Bijan, London, Pitts….
JJ a real one 💯 👏
Instead of most improved name it breakout player of the year. Do 1 or do off/def separately. It’s a better way to phrase most improved and it eliminates confusion for guys who didn’t get injured and aren’t making a comeback for comeback player of the year. It would also give guys who aren’t rookies, quarterbacks or up for OPOY/DPOY an award to chase after.
This year baker would be a great candidate since he isn’t coming back and isn’t improving.. he just happened to have a breakout year. Same with geno last year
wasn't he never a Free agent though? they had to offersheet him and give up multiple first round picks if they wanted him.
Baltimore was probably gonna match, but all it would have took was 2 first rounders and a fully guaranteed contract.
The wild part was the obvious smear campaign that somehow convinced people he wasn't even worth a second contract.
NFL front offices wanted Lamar to play WR. His mom believed in Lamar the QB. This is one of the best stories in the NFL.
💯 Bro...he and his momma backed him all the way...from his combine and being picked last in the first round to getting a MVP and probably his 2nd best story
how did we all lose the fact that we all thought the owners colluded to not let the market get to big of GT money also the raven were never not gonna sign him
Every one of them!! Put accountability on the league
Plus wasn't there a game in which josh only threw for 93 yds the entire game and the bills still won because of there run game so that doesn't sound like he's there most of valuable player which is what the award stands for
Imagine Lamar with actual WR in Indy and Jonathan Taylor?!?!? Wow
Pretty sure every GM knew this was all theater. A deal was always going to get done.
If you don't plan on swapping out your coach, then you can't just hang that on any G.M. The player has to match the coaching scheme and style....
I will admit i was on the , role with Daniel Jones vs signing Lamar 🤦🏽♂️
Appreciate the honesty! It’s refreshing
No, they should be rewarded for not being morons. If YOU want a 1-3 (in 5 years in the NFL) playoff quarterback, go right ahead and grab him.....
