I'm not being obtuse at all. Seriously, take your Ravens glasses off for a second and really look at it. What makes Lamar special is his legs. Take those away and he is a below average starter in this league.mild wrote: ↑Sun May 17, 2020 2:46 pmWhy are you acting as if both statements aren't independant of the other? They can both be true, and I think they are. 14 Wins is a lot of Wins. 400 pass attempts is not a lot of pass attempts. Here is Lamar himself saying he will run less and lean on his WR's more.jenkins.math wrote: ↑Sun May 17, 2020 1:35 pm Saying that they will throw more due to them playing behind more this year is different than you saying the Ravens are "intimating they want Lamar to throw more."
You're just being obtuse at this point.The reigning MVP also alluded to a style change in the future in which he leans more on his weapons in the passing game and lets his running backs take the brunt of the rushing workload.
His growth as a player is directly tied to his passing and his ability to consistently beat teams from the pocket. So he should be talking up the passing game and throwing more. The Ravens are a well run organization. They know he has to run for them to reach their potential as a team.
Every offseason article is written around improving the weaknesses of the team/player the previous year. Sorry, not buying into this Lamar is going to sling it around the field and not run. You as a Ravens fan better hope he doesn't do that as well.
