wackywabbit Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 On the plus side for the Ravens additions, Sammy Watkins seemed pretty good. It's nice to have two WRs on the field who are competent NFL players. Especially when Big Game Andrews shows up. Of course, I know Watkins is only to last like 3 more games, but hopefully Bateman will be back by then to take over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAS of about 9.7 or so with a hyper elite 3 cone suggesting great agility. Just check this clip out for proof of how freaky athletic he is...

Hopefully for the Ravens under Lamar that continues. Obviously McNair as a passer got a better a couple of years later, and put up better numbers. Lamar has that chance. After a while I think he'll have to make that transition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Lamar was kept clean and not running for his life he was actually a pretty damn good and accurate passer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. His protection was *** on MNF. I am curious to see how he'd look like in another offense. I'm guessing Roman won't be around forever.

It was just awful, and yet despite that, Lamar led TWO SEPARATE would-be game winning drives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you know that Lamar comes with elite QB expectations without competent QB credit? If he can't lead an offense that puts up 30+ points when pressured more than half the time he drops back, then he shouldn't have a job in the NFL. If it wasn't for the fumbles, I'd strongly defend that he had a good game in the circumstances, but those were big. That first one especially was on him, and he's acknowledged as much.

August4th Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 seems like Lamar has to be perfect for some people to not have doubts about him lol IDC if his passing is not the greatest, its good enough and matched that with his ability to run..makes him one of most dangerous quarterbacks in the NFL ..steelers have done well against him, but I'm still not looking forward to them playing him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tk3 Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Lamar had two fumbles.. That is a problem, regardless of the OL issues But overall, Lamar played a very strong game, fumbles included. Lamar's performance far outweighed a mid-level starter in the same position The defense's utter failures in the 2nd half was the biggest issue, and Baltimore's pass protection was a close second Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seemed like a week 1/carelessness type of thing and historically Lamar doesn't have that issue. 28 minutes ago, Tk3 said: But overall, Lamar played a very strong game, fumbles included.

Lamar did as good or better than any QB in the same situation. 28 minutes ago, Tk3 said: The defense's utter failures in the 2nd half was the biggest issue, and Baltimore's pass protection was a close second Agreed, I think it's more of a 1a 1b type of thing. Defense gets the huge interception when the game should've been easily over, offense immediately turns it over. Offense scores a game-winning (what should have been) drive, defense gives up 2 huge chunk plays to allow the game to be tied. One unit kept failing if the other succeeded.

SBLIII Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I think people still don't really care about supporting casts and they matter a **** ton in the NFL. When your supporting cast sucks, you will struggle regardless who you are. Lamar had the worst pass protection in week 1 and last year one of the worst receiving corps.

Kirill Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 6 hours ago, wackywabbit said: The worst part is that he still wasn't as bad as EITHER of our tackles. Seriously, how do you have a worse pass blocking grade than Taylor Lewan, when Jones had 5 sacks? Let’s not pretend Myles Garrett is an ideal matchup for a LT adjusting to an entirely new scheme. He can’t be any worse than Eric Fisher and we still aren’t committed to him long term if he doesn’t catch up to speed. And with the 2nd round pick we got from the deal we drafted a monster center in Creed Humphrey, who Orlando Brown told Veach to draft because Creed Humphrey was a legend at Oklahoma and teammates with Brown. You guys hooked up the best team in the AFC. It was a horrible trade no way around it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirill Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 This linebacker we got with our other 2nd Nick Bolton looks like the real deal too. Guy does not look like a rookie at all. Were the best team in the league Veach should not have been able to get two 2nds and Orlando Brown without giving up any future draft capital. It was maybe the most impressive maneuver of the offseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
