Ive credited the Ravens for going all in on changing the offense to maximize Lamars strengths and not looking back. Many teams just would not have done that.
I dont think its sustainable over the long haul, unless he improves as a passer. Remember RG3? I remember talking heads questioning if he was better than Andrew Luck. That didnt last long.

Give me Mahomes over Lamar all day without question, but Ravens will be a top 5 offense again next year. Lamar is not a GREAT thrower, but in that offense he's good enough to cause a lot of problems. He threw for 345 against the Titans. It's silly to look at that one game and think that he's been figured out. That offense is really, really tough to stop.
