Lamar on AB: “That’s the type of guy we need in our locker room”

Belicheck thought AB in his locker room would be a good idea.  So maybe thinking that isn't a factor of Wonderlic scores?

 

 

John Harbaugh says Lamar is very intelligent.  Who to believe, you or the guy who went to the playoffs 2x in 2 years with him?

Jackson had limitations to his NFL QB skillset last season.

Jackson may improve, or he may not

 

Could say the same thing about Josh

My thoughts exactly.

Didn't AB retire?

I hate this merge feature, by the way.

Your reminder that Lamar scored a 13 on the Wonderlic.

Jim Kelly and Dan Marino both scored 15. “Donovan McNabb had a score of 14 on the test and went 98-62-1 in 13 seasons, making six Pro Bowls”

 Eh, what does that guy know about the game?

John Harbaugh is his coach. What do you expect him to say? So ya, you should believe me, not him.

 

Agreed on your point about Allen. But these things can be said any young QB.

John Harbaugh is a seasoned veteran of press conferences and has no shortage of positive things to say about a player without saying things he doesn't believe.  He comes across as a very straight shooter and it wasn't said in response to a question.
 

But even if I didn't believe him, that most surely does not follow.  You would have to provide information about your acquaintance with Lamar Jackson and your credentials in football and we would all have to believe they're on a par with that of Harbaugh, to be believed.

That's exactly my point.  Any young QB in his 2nd or 3rd season may have gaps in his game.  They may be filled, and the QB may improve, or they may not be filled, and he may be "solved" and fade.  But yet we have people making definitive pronouncements like this about Lamar:

This guy is literally too dumb to have sustained success as a QB in the NFL. Also, he can't pass outside the numbers and his only improvisational skills are to run. He's been coached up well but is going to crash and burn as early as this season.

Yeah, people talk about Belicheck and Al Davis but there's something to be said that the Ravens are the true "Just Win Baby" end-justifies-the-means club.

Not sure anyone is saying a player needs a Fitzpatrick type score on the wonderlic to win games in the NFL, but a higher score might keep one from saying stupid things.

I’ve known people that went to Ivy League schools that say stupid things. I know people with PHDs that say stupid things. That is not the reason people refer to Lamar Jackson’s Wonderlick score.

Why do people refer to Lamar's Wonderlick (sic) score?

I do not know. What score did Belicheat get on Wonderlic test and did he cheat?

Never mind we know he cheated, did he cheat off a good paper?

Because he got such a bad score it means his agent did not prep him and he did not care.

Try your act on the road.  Sounds like a good name for blues song.

 

I was thinking something along these lines:

 

"Lamar is an intelligent guy but he doesn't have a lot to say..." etc etc.

Before we all rip Lamar’s intellect - Belichick thought the exact same thing...

 

I don't know that Belichick ever thought that he was "the type of guy we need in our locker room" He cared if he could produce on the field and that's it.

Brown in Baltimore would be entertaining. I can see a late season meltdown with Brown trying to fight Lamar on the sideline because Lamar can’t throw the ball to him.

On the other hand maybe AB can learn how to behave himself and be a good teammate. I hope so for his sake. Clock is ticking on his career and the sooner AB understands how to behave the sooner he will find everyone in life isn’t out to get him.

I couldn’t care less what anyone thinks about Lamar’s intelligence, so I’m not here to defend that. However, I must say it’s funny how Lamar wanting AB on the roster is the one thing that makes him unintelligent. Has everyone forgotten that Brady was posting fond memories of AB last year on social media in hopes of his return ? I wouldn’t say Brady is an unsuccessful QB.

Bad reaction to his personal trainer Guerrero's line of supplements?  (Eye of newt, bat earwax, etc.)

That’s funny.  I’ll throw another one at you, I love John Harbaugh (if we didn’t have McD, he would be my next choice of a phenomenal coach and their management is excellent),  but putting AB on a team with him who is incredibly bright, but animated, fireworks would fly.  He would rip his head off metaphorically by week 2 of the season.
 

That’s why LJ is out of his league on this one.  Didn’t Russell Wilson advocate for him too, and that went real far with Carroll and Snyder.  The difference is Wilson has a lot more juice in Seattle than a third year player who hasn’t even won a playoff game yet.  I’m not a Lamar hater as he has unique skills, but the game is going to catch up to him.  Besides, what do you think his current WR and TE teammates think of him wanting to get AB?

This is a bit opaque to me, but I think you mean Harbaugh is bright but animated and would rip AB's head off metaphorically?

 

From what I've read, AB built both his college and NFL careers by finding coaches and teammates who turning a blind eye to him breaking team rules, as long as he "brought it" on game day.  He also didn't show discretion about keeping his beefs in-house. 

 

I can't imagine Harbaugh being OK with either

I'm more concerned about the bat earwax.  Could pose a health risk if contaminated with novel bat coronaviruses.

I think AB is an awful human being and would never want him near my football team (can’t believe they tried trading for him in the first place).

 

but this thread seems extra salty because AB would play with Lamar and not Allen.

I knew this thread would be gold to the “Lamar is an MVPat age 23, but he sucks” Club .... I wasn’t disappointed 

He sucked throwing in an event before the pro bowl (then won that MVP).  But he sucks apparently.

I dont see this as a LJ sucks thread,  because he obviously doesn’t.  I don’t think he is overly bright outside of football and his incredibly generic quote on AB And their locker room reflects that.  I also see him becoming much more limited as teams force his weaknesses.  Once that happens that’s when you need brain power to overcome those weaknesses-and he just doesn’t seem to have much.

 

As for AB, he’s an idiot, and I dont buy the mental illness angle one bit.  An A-hole is and A-hole and acting stupid doesn’t mean your ill, sometimes your just a stupid A-hole, with too much money and can get away with it, until the moneys gone.  

 

Bring him into the locker room, half way through the season and see where it gets you?  My bet, ticked off players who busted there butts the first 8 games, media hype of the wrong type, and a now emboldened A$$hat who wants the attention.  Great way to kill a locker room, but makes for entertainment.
