But the thing is that Lamar is in the elite/HOF category. Two MVPs earns that classification whether people here want to admit it or not. To say that he's not in that category because he hasn't yet won a SB is circular reasoning given that what we're trying to prove is what level of QB you need to win a SB in the first place.
I personally think he has BECOME elite...it seems experience and the continuity of the Harbaugh regime has helped him riase to a level beyond first MVP year(s). I see a calmer QB that is more accurate than in the past and one who is making much better reads and thinking "run" as last resort, but can still kill you when they call his number. If anyone is slow on Jackson's performance level, it is likely due to his non-traditional style, or a bias consistent with watching every PM game he's ever played, and seeing the Ravens a few times a year...that said, LJ REALLY needs to win this game and have a good SB to cement the "top tier" claim!
