Can Lamar Jackson walk into Detroit and improve their passing game w/o significantly altering their scheme?
No? Ok. Then he doesn't belong in that same conversation. There's a clear difference there.
There's a few guys who can legit turn any team into a contender without requiring a complete fundamental shift in offense. Then there's guys like Lamar who, yeah, if you change everything for him, can have success.

Feel the same. if you have to change the offense, then probably you have to change the coaches/players on some level, and at that point it's not really the same team at all. The question is better if you have to leave everything as it is, and then can that QB still take them to the playoffs or the SB. Lamar would have trouble doing it in a lot more situations than Mahomes or Allen.
