Lamar is on pace to win another playoff game...in two years

Lamar isn't good when the pressure is dialed up, and he isn't good when he has to pass the ball.
Other than that flukey TD early in the game or the busted coverage that allowed them to get close enough for Flowers to fumble into the end zone, the Ravens did almost nothing on offense until we were giving it to them. He had less than 100 yards until the 4th quarter or so. Chiefs had him on a leash. Someone said that if you can keep him in the pocket and make him throw, you might shut the Ravens out. We almost did. They didn't get anything until we were letting them have it to milk the clock. |
I respect Josh Allen more now. Strange as that seems

Lamar just doesn't possess the threat of the pass that Allen does. |

Lamar has been in the league for umpteen years. He’s had an absolutely loaded supporting cast that is tailor made for him. I mean, the defense and run game are the reason Lamar usually doesn’t have to play from behind. And this year with his most loaded supporting cast he still couldn’t get it done against a good team. Where is his signature win? Because his only playoff wins are against Tennessee and Houston. |

No matter what I think of Allen he's light years above Lamar. |
Jackson is not in the same league as Allen or Burrow, who are not in the same league as Mahomes.
God tier Patrick Lavon Mahomes II Hacker tier Josh Allen Joe Burrow Pro tier A (above-average starters) Lamar Jackson C.J. Stroud (potential to Hacker tier) Matthew Stafford Jalen Hurts Trevor Lawrence (potential to Hacker tier) Jordan Love (potential to Hacker tier) Justin Herbert (potential to Hacker tier) Kirk Cousins Jared Goff Dak Prescott Pro tier B (average starters) Brock Purdy Tua Tagavailoa Baker Mayfield Noob tier (below-average starters) Everyone else |
I think Burrow's overrated. His numbers in the playoffs are weaker than Alex Smith's, he lives on 50/50 balls to great WRs, and we just saw an undrafted QB outperform him in his absense.
I don't think he should be above Stafford, Herbert, or Lamar, or even the Goff/Cousins tier. |

I should also probably have included a "crazy old man who might have CTE" tier for Aaron Rodgers. |
The pundits have all predictively changed their tunes today. Pat is clearly the goat now.

With the injury history, losing his OC, playing in the AFCN and downgrading his weapons due to FA, he will have to justify his place in the QB hierarchy. Right now it is solely based on catching Mahomes in an off-game. Relying purely on inexplicable opponent screwups is not a plan. |
As I’ve been watching the dumb triple coverage INT. Is there a world where mahomes and kelce complete that? It seems like Likely has a tiny bit of separation and no one over the top. Would require a pinpoint throw ahead and coming in high and hot with perfect timing. Which requires a great catch. Maybe an interesting thought if you’re kind of throwing it away but giving your TE a shot to make a play only he can make.
Lamar could not have thrown a worse ball on that throwing it short right into the coverage. But is it just me that this was actually doable with an elite throw and catch? |
