And MetLife Stadium will ALWAYS be associated with the Giants. As a Jets fan, I cannot wait until our lease is up and the Jets get their OWN Stadium. Again… one that is actually IN New York. It will happen. Believe it. Lamar approves of his thread being hijacked by pure fantasy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashmouth Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 1 hour ago, derp said: On one hand that makes sense. On the other hand, a Lamar Jackson led offense literally beat the Jets this past season with a total of 63 rushing yards and him throwing 3 TD’s and over 7 YPA. So not so sure about him never beating a defense like the Jets’ with him throwing the football. This is a very good point and 100 % true but that was game 1 the first game this defense took the field with numerous new additions and rookies. There were miscommunications and this defense really didn't start playing dominant football until game 5 I would bet if we played the Ravens in game 5 or 6 we would have beat them easily.

The history of QBs 40+ in the NFL is downright ugly. Tom Brady is the rarest of exceptions. Peyton, Eli, Rivers, Ben, HOF QBs all retired before age 40 and were clearly washed. Did you ever ask yourself why the Ravens would let such an amazing talent leave in the first place ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of figured that was coming back. Totally reasonable, realistically we’ll never know, but I do think Jackson is underrated as a passer. He also is really better in the intermediate areas of the field, which happens to be where the Jets are probably the weakest defensively.

I'm pretty sure they desperately want him to stay. Lamar seemingly wants a fully guaranteed contract a la Deshaun Watson... which if you're a former league MVP in your prime and you don't have 22 women accusing you of assault, you probably feel like "Why can he get that but I can't?" And if you're the Ravens, you're saying "the Browns made a terrible mistake, and we're not going to follow their footsteps".

You could do the same with Rodgers, Carr, Jimmy G… any of the options out there, Smash. With Lamar it could be as simple as they don’t want to spend that much on a QB, or that they don’t think their roster is going to be good enough and want to retool the entire program. Like with any other FA in any sport, it usually comes down to whether a team and player agree on whether the juice (price tag) is worth the squeeze.

Smashmouth Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 @peebag not really sure what you are confused about .... Watson signed a 4 year 160 mil extension with the Texans BEFORE the allegations against him. Then he was sent to the Browns where he signed a 230 mil deal. Either way he's ten times the QB Lamar Jackson is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson hasn't won an MVP and I think Lamar gets critically underrated by people. To me it's just the cost to acquire Lamar in picks and $ that doesn't really make sense for us; dude is probably gonna command 3 1st's at least and command a 250 mil+ contract. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonkertons Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 I'd be thrilled with Lamar, but the cost + contract divided by injury risk = I just can't bring myself to do it. Would rather go for Carr or just settle for Tanny boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heymangold Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 so question. i read somewhere that the ravens are likely to place the "non-exclusive" franchise tag on Lamar. i heard that a team signing Lamar then would be giving the Ravens 2 first round picks with obviously a massive contract to lamar. my question is - is that ALL the compensation that would go the other way? only 2 firsts? if that's the case, lamar is a no brainer.
