Can't make this stuff up.
Did you want me to include Tebow? I mean he is also the same player as well. I used Manziel not to point to him and say "nuh uh", I used him because the graph on NFL Network had QBs that threw for 3k and rushed for over 1,500. Their names were Vince Young, Johnny Manziel, DeShaun Watson and Jackson did it back to back.
The "analyst" all agreed that hopefully Jackson has the same career as 1 of these guys.
"Career"? Really? 7 games is NOT a career. Or maybe they were pointing to Young, if so, then pass.
Now to address you pitiful points. Seattle hasn't been the LOB since the 2nd SB appearance, NE has never been a dominant defensive team, and the Titans are divisional foes and stats don't really tell the whole story with those games.
I can lump Jackson in with Young, Watson and Manziel if the NFL uses a comparison sheet with those names on it. Not my fault 3 of the 4 are black. Not my fault that 2 of the 4 are out of the league and that I am not sold on Watson like other people are. I can point to other QBs that have the same playing style that wasn't on the graph that have found themselves sitting on the bench due to injury as in RGIII and Teddy Bridgewater.
To claim this "reeks of racial undertones" will continue to push MORE people away from the NFL, if you can't critique a player without being called a racist.
I agree, color shouldn't be in this discussion.
Honestly Lamar's play reminds me of the guy we already have on our team, Jeff Driskel.
But actually liked Driskel's throwing motion last Preseason and i don't like Lamar's throwing motion. Too gadgety.
Not smooth at all.
