IF we had Jackson and he went 6-1 as the starters, we'd be thrilled talking about how dangerous he'll be when he gets passing yardage.
IF we had Mayfield, traded for OBJ, and signed Hunt...there would be so many Super Bowl threads started.
Admitting that other teams have talent and potential is ok. Basically you can point to any team in the NFL and see talent and positives.
I don't disagree, but our young QB took us to a bunch of straight playoffs and won a lot of regular season games, yet many discounted him and still do saying it is his great surrounding cast. The problem is his surrounding cast on offense has not been great each year. The defense have never been top 5 and I think once top 10 since he took over so no major help there for him either.
Jackson is lethal running the ball, the Ravens OL is lethal run blocking. Their defense keeps them in every game. But, Jackson will have to become a better passer. I think he will, my question for Jackson is will he read the game well and read defenses well when teams put him position to have to pass.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
