You also can’t really discount what Jackson has done with Baltimore. No way in hell they’re a legit Super Bowl contender with Joe Flacco at QB.

Not saying they’re on bad teams, but their QB’s are the main reason they’re as good as they are.

I agree that Flacco would be holding Baltimore back. But Lamar isn't carrying that team. He's balling out, but there is a lot of talent on that team. They have a really good coaching staff, and front office. All of that contributes to Lamar Jackson's success, and the team's success as a whole. The same goes for Russell Wilson. Wilson's played his entire career on a team that had the best defense in the last decade, and contrary to popular belief has had some really good offensive pieces around him... Russell Wilson is the shit, and is definitely a top 2 or 3 QB in the league, but Seattle's been to the Super Bowl 3 times in 20 years. That's organizational success. Russell Wilson contributes to that, but doesn't carry it.

The thing that many of us knock Andy Dalton for needing are the things that the best QBs in the NFL all have.

I'll say this much though... Deshaun Watson and DeAndre Hopkins sorta carry Houston. They don't seem to get anywhere, but those two seem to be overwhelmingly responsible for any success that team has.
