You combine the two, which is really doing Lamar a bit of a disservice in volume numbers since passes generally yield more yardage on a per play basis, and you get 477 'attempts' for 4,333 yards, which comes pretty close to your arbitrary 4.5k figure.



Well your biggest problem is comparing Lamar Jackson to elite QBs like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes. Literally no one on this board would make the argument that Lamar Jackson is a top 5 QB comparable to Allen, Mahomes, Rodgers, or Brady.

You're also highlighting my argument that passing yards are a bit overrated. Aaron Rodgers has four MVPs and in those seasons he threw for 4,600, 4,300, 4,300 and 4,100 yards. Dude hasn't even come close to cracking 5k.

You know who did crack 5k? Brees. Like 6 times. You know how many MVPs he's got? 0.



Lots of QBs can't run a pro-style offense.

When you get a talent like Lamar Jackson, you tailor your offense to fit his skillset.



Well in that case, Lamar is ahead of the curve. He throws a TD every 118 yards on average.

Only Ravens fans and ****ing idiots would take Lamar over prime Brees.

MVP trophies are ****ing worthless anyway. I hope Mahomes never wins another one. They mean nothing to a QB’s true legacy
