    Jackson breaks out on big plays often--even in terrible weather conditions.  He is the spearhead of the best running game in the league against a D that struggles to stop the run. 

     

    He is completing 67% off his passes and has 25 TD passes against 5 ints.  Passer rating of 111.  That's not a scary passing stat line??  Not a scary passing game?

     

    Ingram is running at 5.2 yards per carry and 9 TD so far.  

     

    If "keeping their TEs from getting catches" was all it took, then someone would have done it and everyone else would have followed.

     

    It's fine to feel confident about the Bills chances at home...but to say it's because some part of the Ravens game "isn't that good" is clearly wishful thinking.

    Those passing numbers are a major product of teams giving Jackson open throws.

     

    He's not a guy who's gonna carve you up with his passing ability. He's done well finding his TE's over the middle and will make throws while moving around, but the Bills will do fine in this regard.

     

    Stop Jackson from killing you with his legs and you have a shot.

    Respect has nothing to do with that.  It's a guess to start the bidding.

     

     

    How are they way overrated?

    I'll play.

     

    Their D looks ok, but not scary. Can be ran on as we saw today.

     

    They also look very beatable if Jackson isn't breaking out on big plays. Stay disciplined and keep the TE's from getting catches in the middle of the field. I'm not scared of Ingram either.

     

    Good team, but Jackson running the ball is the only scary part about them.

     

    Bills should be feeling confident with 10 days rest and a good gameplan to keep Jackson in check.

  3. Some of these guys are definitely on the take, and some of them take instruction from the league on what they want the outcome to be. Some like Boger have ties to teams (Pats) which should absolutely not happen.

     

    And it's all hidden/excused because of the many excuses like I've seen in this thread.

    "It's a tough job" , "there may be pre conceived notions going into the game", yadda, yadda.

     

    Keep brushing it off as simply mistakes or whatnot. That's why it continues on. When Dallas gets two tripping penalties in Foxboro (one on the potential GW drive and 3rd down conversion) and we can clearly see nothing has happened, it's obviously way more than a simple mistake. The hands calls on Tre White early on were to make sure Buffalo didn't get physical with their star WR. Meanwhile in NE, Gilmore shuts down Cooper because he can play him physically which takes him out of his game.

     

    Get real, folks! The money involved here makes it too much for people of power not to have their hands in it...just like anything else. Or it that conspiracy too?

    Saw them.  They were really good throws.  Impressive accuracy.

    I'm not trying to say that Lamar Jackson cannot make pinpoint throws between defenders.  He obviously can.

     

    What I'm saying is that Jackson isn't displaying the ability (at this point in his career) of consistent high-level QB play... meaning going through multiple reads and quickly diagnosing defensive coverages from the pocket.  Instead, you are seeing Jackson taking advantage of defenses stacking the box, and leaving bare-bones man-coverage in the secondary.  Combined with play-action and RPO's, his reads are simple, but extremely effective.

     

    Don't get me wrong.  This is not a big knock on Jackson.  His running ability (and opposing defenses being totally helpless to stop it) is the #1 reason he's getting those easy reads downfield.  You must also remember that Jackson is still very early in development, and very few QBs can diagnose coverages at a high-level in their second year.

     

    But it's also why some fans still have some skepticism regarding Jackson's long-term outlook.  History has shown that QBs who depend mostly on their legs - without also developing as a passer - don't succeed very long in the NFL.  And despite what pure statistics/numbers say, I still think Josh Allen, Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield are progressing beyond Jackson in pure development as a Quarterback.

     

     

    That's where I'm at.

     

    We've seen this before for the most part. Jackson is Mike Vick reincarnate.

     

    Vick changed the game and had people going nuts over what he could do, but It never resulted in the ultimate success. 

     

    Jackson could be different...I'm not gonna say what he can or cannot be since nobody truly knows. What I do know is that there is a formula to neutralize him. Everyone gets figured out and the guys who rely on their legs more than their passing ability tend to get figured out much easier, and then when they get hurt or lose some of their physical ability, they fade away.

     

    I'm still of the belief that the most cerebral QB's are the one's that prove to ultimately be the toughest to play against and that they end up having the most success and longevity.

    Just stop.  It’s not Roman.  And TT and Jackson are not similar QBs at all.

     

     He’s hitting his receivers.  He’s leading the league in TD passes.  If he takes off after 1st read, no one at all can stop him.

     

    That’s him, not Roman.

     

     

    He's correct.

     

    Jackson is making simple throws right now. It's very much like the Tyrod offense with Roman. For you to deny it is foolish. 

     

    Jackson is better and more explosive, but what he's doing isn't groundbreaking stuff...at least not in the passing game.

     

    Tyrod was scared to try and elevate his game beyond the simple reads and throws. We have no idea yet what Jackson will be, but it should be interesting to watch.

  6. This game terrifies me, as I think Baltimore is scaring everyone right now.

     

    What I do like is we have 10 days to prepare for a home game where the elements may play a factor.

     

    I also like that we have the personnel and a group that's been together to at least take away the passing game. 

     

    It's gonna take our offense showing up and keeping Baltimore off the field to really have a shot, but I feel pretty good about that side of the ball now.

     

    Definitely not thrilled for this game, but it will be a real good test of what this team can or can't do.

  7. It's time to bring the NFL and it's corruption to light. 

     

    Expose the league for not being about competition and the better team winning. 

     

    If enough people pick up on it and it draws enough attention, the NFL would be forced to change or become irrelevant. 

     

    Also another reason why I scoff at the Brady is GOAT and the Patriots are the greatest dynasty. I'll never accept those things with all the scandal and cheating involved.

     

    Belichek is another story

  8. I think we need to mix it up with the DE/OLB so on pass plays, they can drop into coverage over the middle (Jackson's bread and butter). Attack and collapse the pocket when you can.

     

    I'm taking away the middle of the field throws. The TE's are decent, but I think we can defend them.

     

    The other major key is obviously this offense pulling their weight and not having the defense worn out. Get some points and maintain drives.

     

    It won't be easy because Jackson can still wreck the game with his running even if you do everything right, but at least you have taken away what you can.

    Yeldon is better then people think and at this stage he’s better then Gore. It’s just going to be one of those things we never actually get to find out though because Dabol is obsessed with wasting touches on a guy that’s 5+ years past his prime. It’s not even about Yeldon as much as it is about not continuously giving the ball to Gore. This has a chance to be a really special season and Gore served his purpose. He got us through some tough times and helped up bring along Singletary. But now it’s time to get serious and for the last month it’s clear Gores legs are shot. It’s time to try and take advantage of this season and get some fresh legs to go with Singletary. Bring back Murphy I don’t care. It just has to stop being Gore. You don’t have to cut the guy. Keep him around and give him 2 or 3 touches a game. But he gets the ball way, way to much. He’s done.

    Agree 100%

     

    At least give Gore a week to just try and get fresh and let Yeldon get a week to see how he performs. I also think he's a decent back with good receiving skills, and would be more impactful than Gore.

    For me it's not about hiding the QB. It's about playing to the strengths of our offense. IMO our line is better at run blocking than pass blocking and Singletary makes plays happen even when they're not there. We don't really have anyone catching passes that can do that. Any time you are throwing to Andre Roberts you need to reevaluate your offense's identity. We have a starting veteran TE that I'm pretty sure has net negative yardage this year. I don't want to hide Allen, I want to hide most of the players around him.

    Gotta agree.

     

    Allen didn't fail today...he delivered under constant pressure and no run game.

     

    The coaching sucked today.

    Defense surrendered a TD drive after Allen got them a 4pt lead.

    Kicker missed two field goals that Allen had nice drives to get within range.

     

    People harp on the deep ball too much. It's a low percentage play that doesn't hit all that often. I'd like to see it hit , but it's not the end all be all that many make it to be. I also think he's still working on it and it will come around.

    If the QB, drops, pushes or passes the ball forward, it is a forward pass and in this case, incomplete.  Watch what JA does on the jet sweep with McKenzie.  The exact same thing.

    Right, but if the QB simply holds the ball out and let's it go in the players hands, it may not be going forward.

     

    I can't say for certain that it was, and I don't think the refs could determine it either, but they did overturn the call.

     

    Not as cut and dry as some are making it

    I've seen you and a few others mentioning multiple deep shots Allen missed today. I only remember the one to McKenzie. What am I forgetting? The deep pass to Beasley was dead on arrival, he was blanketed by two defenders. I don't remember any other deep shots.

    He drew a PI early on with a deep ball.

     

    The ridiculousness of posters throwing a hussy fit over the deep ba today are ignoring a litany of other issues much higher up in concern and what cost us the game.

    I watched about 40% of this game, what exactly am I missing in people blaming allne?

    I don't know either.

     

    He was under constant pressure, and he made good throws when he got time.

     

    Got a PI on a deep ball, didn't turn the ball over, and ran for two scores along with drives that the kicker couldn't finish with points.

     

    Ridiculous the amount of criticism this kid is getting

    I’m surprised how many people here don’t recognize a Greg Roman creation when they see one.

     

    Lamar Jackson is Tyrod Taylor, folks. And it’s ok to admit it.

     

    I have the same belief, sir.

     

    This kids flaws are being hidden well, right now...just like how Tyrod was all the rage for awhile.

     

    He's dangerous with his legs, for sure. But I can definitely see him getting figured out. And his style of play may get him carted off the field sooner than later.
