Lamar Might be Better Than Burrow - NotBigzo - 09-08-2024
I don't take this lightly, but I've heard murmurs about this over the years and I'm starting to think that it could be the case.
Another exhibit pointing to this reared its head this week. Jackson, on the road against a defense /w Chris Jones and Trent Mcduffie, drove the ball down to tie it only to fall short by a toe.
Joe Burrow, with an opportunity to do the same against a lesser defense, looked like Daniel Jones out there.
Burrow is supposed to be HIM. We're certainly paying him like he is. He definitely acts like he is with his trips to Paris looking like a big-time playa. Why isn't he making these plays against lesser teams?

Burrow actually has beat the Chiefs in the regular season and playoffs. Has Lamar?

actually he had that game tied if he had hit the WR going wide open across the back of the endzone 2 plays before that. likely harbaugh had it won there b/c he woulda gone for 2 then as well.

Lamar beat KC in a shootout in the regular season not too long ago.

Well the dude is a 2-time NFL MVP and younger. So yeah, he probably is

In a game that he threw multiple picks and had a 78.8 passer rating. But hey, he sure did run all around in that one!
Surely it’s translated to the postseason.

He balled out for that first MVP. The one they gave him last year was embarrassing.

29 total TD’s isn’t an MVP to me. YMMV.

Burrow 3-1 vs Chiefs. Lamar 1-4.

Yeah. They basically run a college offense from the 60s.

soon to be 3-2 vs. the chiefs if they don't get a fire under their butts. meanwhile those asshats have 3 rings. we have 0. it only matters if you care about the bengals.

50 sports writer list their top 5 in order. Last year 49 of those 50 voters had Lamar Jackson #1 on their ballot.
But yeah, "opinions vary".
RE: Lamar Might be Better Than Burrow - Sled21 - 09-08-2024
Lamar is not a better QB than Burrow, he is just a better athlete and an insane runner.

why do you cite the so-called experts? sports writer isn't an expert. everyone is a "journalist" these days eh?

3-2 still better than 1-4.
RE: Lamar Might be Better Than Burrow - THE PISTONS - 09-08-2024
It's crazy that Lamar is younger than Burrow.

I simply cite those who are chosen to make the selection by the associated press.
I get it, if Jungle Noise experts were in charge of selecting MVP, Joe would have won his 4th last year and Jamar would be 3-time runner up
It's OK. Jamar can be a better NFL QB than JB at this point in their careers. It doesn't mean Joe is not good.
