Just another reminder that Lamar Jackson stole his only MVP from Mahomes

If the ratbirds had Allen instead of Jackson they'd probably be unstoppable. He's a running QB that can actually throw.

I wonder if their fans are rethinking that non-exclusive tag they had on Jackson. Does this season make them think he can put it together? Or does it cement the fact that he just can’t get it done at the highest level?

Just give it to the player who had the best year and did something historic. At least maybe we'd start giving it to a non QB at some point. |

People acted like Lamar turned everything around. Lamar has always been a good qb when the script is working. He still continues to be suspect when he is forced into a passing script and playing from behind. And it’s amazing that against guys like mahomes, burrow and Allen who have a number of signature wins under their belt… where is Lamar’s? |

I have to admit, I was nervous when I remembered this thread and realized Pat and Lamar had yet to meet in the playoffs. The opportunity was there to have a losing record against another QB. But, I'm not sure why I would ever doubt Mr. Mahomes.

And taking away nothing from the Chiefs defense, but do the Chiefs make the playoffs with just an average QB? The defense was already covering up a lot of mistakes by the offense just to get a 3 seed... the Ravens could have dropped a few games and would have been fine, but not so much the Chiefs.

They’d just have to hope it’s a meaningless regular season game and not a playoff game.

Why is Lamar considered the slam dunk MVP? Aren’t Dak’s numbers considerably better? What am I missing?

Purdy has a decent argument with their record and also a 1 seed but he’ll split MVP votes with CMC like Montana/Rice in ‘87 when Elway stole it. Dak had a good season but too many stinkers. |

You know how when teams face each other competing for a postseason berth the game is often viewed as a "two-game (or, in hockey, 4-point) swing in the standings"?
If the Ravens had won Sunday and then won the SB, Lamar would have 1 SB win to Mahomes' 2, the same number of regular season MVP awards (2), and likely 1 SB MVP to Mahomes' 2. That would've created a new narrative that Mahomes is looking over his shoulder and Lamar is as good as or even better than Mahomes ("He's on the way up!"). Not saying that narrative would be true, just that it would've been really annoying all off-season and next season. Instead, Sunday's win was like a huge swing in the "standings," i.e., Mahomes' Legacy, helped immensely by Lamar struggling as well. |

When Mahomes wins his 10th SB there will be no arguments to have. Until then people will scream and kick and fight every second of it. They don't want it to be true. It doesn't matter - it's inevitable...
