I do have doubts about Lamar long term so I get that. With any of these guys you want them to be able to succeed as a "pocket passer" if they need to. The guys who play into their 40's don't do what Lamar does. Athleticism here and there, sure but it cant be the go to long term. He has been extraordinarily effective to this point in his career even with some limitations. I think he is 24-4 as a starter....often people here would defend Allen based on wins and losses, the argument has some validity to it. I was reacting more to comparing Lamar to Allen AND Mahomes as if Allen and Mahomes are in the same class but Jackson is something else. Both of those guys have had MVP seasons. Allen has had 3 weeks where you could argue is in MVP discussions but it's only three weeks....a lot of anomalies occur in three weeks. I guess I am shell shocked and still want to see Allen perform over a longer period of time.
Lamar can't win the game because of a playoff game....that is one way to look at it...but they give that away before they even play the super bowl right? So is the intent to look over the entire season or mostly its a regular season thing? Wilson is the best in the league right now with Mahomes right next to him almost neck and neck.
