Almost like it’s not a coincidence the guy misses more practices for “non-covid illness” than any player i’ve ever seen lol Expand Sleep habits and nutrition combined together = he likes to stay out late and party right? That's how I read it, with that blanket "also wonder" tag. ****ty by Mortenson to imply that during a negotiation, no matter how silly, without actually standing by any specific claim.

He hasn’t been that guy in 4 years. Or come close to being that guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but running backs are a dime a dozen, or so I've heard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also missing that playoff game. Could have taken shots to reduce the swelling snd toughed it out to try to get a ring, but the re-injury risk was high. It’s all about the payday for him. Sick practices go back to 2019/2020/2021…i think he’s legit just sick all the time haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slappy Mc Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 45 minutes ago, RaidersAreOne said: Almost like we have enough RBs on the roster already. I know players are trying their hands at different positions, Zeke Elliott at Center, Taysom Hill at QB, Kendall Hinton at QB, but people gotta get realistic about what they really are. Jackson is a RB who can throw trying to get teams to commit unfathomable guaranteed dollars. Good luck to whatever team ends up with him. Maybe we will look back on this situation and Lamar ends up being a HoFer. More likely that he will see the field less and less going forward and a team will have buyers remorse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would the Jets want to do that? So they can go back to Zach Wilson and a Furious Fan base after they eventually get neither QB? Yeah 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 1 hour ago, Soko said: So you believe that owners are totally fine with putting $250M in escrow to give to Lamar (money they will never see again), but are absolutely against putting $250M in escrow for an offer (that they would have 100% returned if the Ravens match)? Again, that makes no sense at all, lol. Over a quarter billion dollars is a ton of money to put into escrow for a deal that isn't even guaranteed to go through. Even the most cash rich owners in the league would have to move assets around to get a deal like that done, I don't think you can even entertain doing it unless Lamar is a done deal to play for you.

NYRaider Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 1 hour ago, MKnight82 said: Ya but he's old, he's declining, and he's a douchebag. He still produced at a top 10 level last year despite a young WR group (not that talented either) while he was dealing with a thumb injury. Are we going to ignore the fact that he's a year removed from back to back MVP seasons? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jets with Lamar can keep building and may be a contender sometime over the next 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers is a year removed from winning back to back MVPs and he has been the most productive QB in the league over the last three seasons. I think Rodgers definitely gives them a much better chance at competing for a Super Bowl next year than Lamar does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
