The underneath coverage bit him on the INT6 and that comes with more film work. If he can consistently do that....he would be dangerous. It's when that first read is gone and feels a little pressure then it's scramble mode. Watson was bad with that, when he had Hopkins. He got a lot better. Jackson needs to develop.

Pats#1 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Officially a Bills fan for the remainder of the playoffs, unless of course TB makes it to the Super Bowl. (But I don't think that's likely). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkippyX Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Jackson was MVP on merit last year. He is 30-7 as a starter. What he is doing works. The playoffs could work out too if they played great on D and got a lead or stayed close. Its hard to be 350 yard passing guy on demand in the playoffs when its not really the offense. My biggest concern for him is that he needs to get better as a passer because he won't be a 1000 yard rusher as he gets older. Or worse, he could be Cam and only be a 1000 yard rusher as his passing gets worse. I'm not talking about arm strength, or touch, or dog whistle 'reading defenses'. I'm just talking about 480-520 passes a year instead of 380-400 passes a year because the greats get better with repetition in competition. I like the Andy Reid plan of building a team that has a chance to win over 10 years instead of that short window. McNabb never took the step to really improve as a passer. Lamar is a better talent and he should take that step. I'm not sure if he can take it with Roman though, so there are some tough questions. Maybe a wiz at QB coach can be the answer?

You can keep most of the offense but just call more passes and get that QB mentor Adding someone like Allen Robinson would not hurt either.

He actually didn't take an inordinate amount this season compared to other QBs. Just inside the top 10, nothing too crazy considering his penchant for running around.

He needs a real WR1 (he has a bunch of WR4 plus one gadget WR) and he needs his effective line back that he had in 2019 Losing Ronnie Stanley was huge. The hole at center was blatant today Flat out, he has less support around him than any other young QB (besides maybe Darnold) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m excited, though I hope we spend some money on a receiver and maybe some interior offensive line this offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SalvadorsDeli Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Lol, I guess in time this will become some mythological Josh Allen game but in the meantime we gotta focus on Lamar. One horrible throw after a game spent showing how pathetic a job his GM and coaching staff has spent giving him any sort of support. As always, he is the whole story.
