We're gonna have issues with the rats

Jackson burning the field. 9/9 for 4TDs

[Oh wow]

Thats impossible. According to Steel Maniac Lamar is trash and would show us how terrible he was in the first 3 games.

I see Lamar as the modern Kordell or Vick. Amazing arm and athleticism, but not consistent or accurate.

He’ll destroy us when he’s on, and fail miserably when he isn’t.

I liked Lamar coming out and think he has unlimited upside just like Cam Newton, but both of these guys have shown a lack of consistency. Either could lead their team to a SuperBowl or a 7-9 season.

I think he’ll be dangerous to us for years and we’ll risk losing 2 games to Baltimore as long as he’s in the league. But we’ll just as likely beat them 2x.

He's got good sidekicks. Ingram is the real deal.
Rats 42-3 -- at *halftime*!!!

He’s playing against the Dolphins. Let’s not crown Lamar MVP already. One DB for the Dolphins has 4 holding penalties alone in the first half. My son is a Dolphins fan and even he knows this team traded away most of their talent for draft picks for a massive rebuild.

I think we need to see him for a year or 2 as a starter before we make judgements on his inaccuracy.

He was thrown into the fire his rookie year.

Full year of camp as the starter and an offense tailored to his strengths... he sure looks accurate in his first game.

I hear you. I’m going off of what i saw of him in college mostly re: his consistency/accuracy.

Maybe he can get better with coaching, but I don’t see a big difference coming. I suspect he’ll always be great and mediocre at the same time.

This.

I think they are generally under rated, but the Dolphins are tanking this year, so I'm not sure it's a good yard stick

[NorthCoast]

Dolphins aren't even college level team. They've been gutted for draft picks next year.
Game is irrelevant for how Ravens will be this season.

[Starlifter]

Blowouts happen. We had one last year against Carolina. Win by 1, win by 50 - still a win. I need a full season of LJ before I start getting excited or worried.

[SteelBucks]

It’s one game....against the worst team in the league.

Ravens

I know it's only one game, and it's just against the Dolphins, but wow. Those of y'all who said Lamar Jackson doesn't have what it takes to play QB in the NFL, you might want to start eating your words. Those of y'all who said Antonio's cousin wasn't worth spending a a high draft pick on, you might want to think about taking back what you said, too.

Just might be that Hairball knew what he was doing in getting rid of Whacko Flacco and re-tooling the offense.

[SteelBucks]

It was one game and it was against the Dolphins.

Sorry, didn't see this thread when I started mine on the Ravens. Moderators, you can strike or merge this thread. Thanks.
