The real truth is very few around these parts believed Jackson would ever amount to anything passing the ball.

Pass attempts have increased by 20.1 per game and is averaging 30.1 attempts.
Average has increased from 7.1 to a very respectable 7.7 this season
Completion percentage increased from 58.2% to 63.3%

What is really scary is his rushing efficiency has also increased from 4.7 YPC to 6.9 and his rushing attempts have increased from 9.2 to 11.9 per game.

Probably about time for his detractors to at least admit this player is way better than first considered and is certainly not one dimensional.

On side note his Accuracy and Average are better than Goff and Wentz YTD.

He has proven me wrong up to this point. I am still not sure he is good enough to win a SB. If the Ravens could get an elite defense around him then maybe.

If Kyle Boller or Joe Flacco can win a Super Bowl, Lamar can.

For that team sure, the QB was pretty irrelevant, their defense is in the short list for greatest ever and the QB was just along for the ride. Flacco legitimately won the 2nd SB for the Ravens after having one of the best playoff performances ever.

I'm glad that that's where we're at currently in the discussion - on whether or not he can win "the big one".

He's currently the QB3 in Fantasy. He's in the discussion for League MVP. Hopefully you bought in. If you didn't... then best of luck facing him for the next 5 years in your leagues.

He's going to be a problem.

He's going to be a problem.
in 2015 Cam was the QB1. It's 2019 and he'll be lucky to get his starting job back from Kyle Allen.
in 2012 RGIII was the QB5. By 2015 he didn't have a job.
He's going to be screwed once he can't run anymore. Cam is built like a linebacker at 6'5 245.
You think Lamar is magically going to last longer than all the other running qbs before him?

Cash out after this season or next. Or don't.... and be stuck holding the bag.

Apples and Oranges. Ravens D was awesome back then. The Ravens D that won with Dilfer was arguably the best D of all time.

At some point, if Lamar continues to run like this, he will get hurt. What happens after that, and the way he plays after that, will be the interesting part. He's a decent passer, but his legs help his passing, and make him a threat at QB. I don't think he'll ever be a passer like Wilson, but he will need to find the balance between affecting the game with his legs, staying healthy, and still making some throws. What he's doing now can't last, IMO. Not for years and years.

Ok, but most QBs get hurt at one point or another. Injury is an inherent risk for every player at every position. The only injuries i take into account when evaluating players are chronic ones. Im not just gonna sell Lamar on the possibility he will get injured, that just seems like a silly philosophy. Brady tore his ACL in 2008, im sure many people sold then and regretted it. (I know i know, different kind of Qb) Mahomes just dislocated his knee, Brees hand, so many QBs are out this season, it happens. Lamar at this point is still standing and is young. Why on earth would i sell him on the chance, because thats all it is, he will get injured? There are also Running Qbs who have beaten the odds and lasted 8 or so years.

Agreed Flacco deserves all of the credit for the 2nd SB

As a Ravens fan I usually switched him out for Anthony Wright or McNair or even Troy Smith lol
