Haven’t seen yet how Jackson can do without the run. I hope he would be fine, but then it gets into the “rookie QB versus Bellicheck” deal.

Talley56 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) Ravens fans just became huge Saints fans. Also, if the Ravens win the division, they could meet the Chargers again in two weeks. Edited December 23, 2018 by Talley56 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL's worst nightmare is the Chargers getting home field throughout the playoffs with the prospect of the conference championship game played with 28,000 fans in the stands. It being the Chargers, they would be lucky to get that many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chargers D is pretty good, so I figured the Ravens down a few scores and there would be no way Jackson could keep up via passing--he's awful at it.

YoloinOhio Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) Ravens just really shut down the chargers offense and made more big plays. Chargers defense played pretty well. Shows how much worse the chiefs and Steelers defenses are Edited December 23, 2018 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravens have just as good of a chance as anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Bills fans: Allen never misses passes, it’s all his receivers and oline fault. He’s a winner. also Bills fans: the Ravens win with Lamar holding him back. Also, he is really a running back. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/J/JackLa00.htm https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/A/AlleJo02.htm i hope they both become better passers and become franchise guys. And it’s hard to explain it, but Jackson just wins. It’s like he was good in college or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using terms like always and never are usually clues to straw men arguments. Ardent Allen fans still claim he needs to develop. No one here ever claimed he doesn't miss passes. For the most part, Bills fans that I have read do not think Jackson can sustain effectiveness. Most acknowledge his current success, do they not? If you think Lamar is on par with Allen in terms of potential in the passing game, your criteria and evaluative capacity is vastly different than my own. I'll side with 716, in any event. Ravens have a better line and more weapons. Their D is smothering. I surmise the comment on "good in college or something" is meant to contrast Allen at Wyoming with Jackson at Louisville. Taken in context, Allen significantly raised the play of a bad Wyoming team. Compare their record when he played and when he didn't, but so what? Going forward, we'll see how they turn out at the pro level. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had them tied as prospects coming out at the draft and imo, they are still tied. if Allen had Jackson’s production against that level in college instead I’d ehat he did in the MWC, there would be no criticism of him and he’d be the number 1 pick of the draft. But there are totally double standards here (it’s a bills board and I expect that but I call it like I see it) but Allen is closer as a passer to Jackson than Brees. But both are super young and have a lot of ability, so hopefully they both get there because it makes the nfl better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, for most of the game, the announcers were ball-washing Jackson in a way that never happens with Allen. Jackson is playing behind a really good o-line and has plenty of weapons at his disposal. We don’t have a single TE who would make the Ravens 53-man roster, and maybe one offensive lineman who would start for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clay, prior to this year, was far superior to any of them. and the Heisman winner is probably going to get more hype than the Wyoming guy. If Allen becomes the guy, he will get ball washes like every good qb does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about the penumbra of Heisman hype still attached to Jackson, but there's also hangover from the analytics crowd who are going to resist saying nice things about Allen until his play is so overwhelmingly good that they have no choice.
