Let's talk about the Ravens
Quote:
Jackson is noticeably worst when playing from behind. Not sure what stats you are referring to. He also piles up stats in the fourth quarter when the team is comfortably ahead. In 2019 when ahead Jackson threw 27 TDs on 217 attempts. A TD pass on 12% of attempts. When behind he had 99 attempts and only two TD passes, easy math at 2% of passes resulting in a TD. That’s a gigantic difference to the negative for him. Not surprising he falls so much when teams can more comfortably play his passing game. And blaming drops is just lazy excuse making. In week 1 Mahomes had two TD passes dropped. In week 2 trying to take the lead at the end of regulation he had to overcome two plays that resulted in first downs coming back because of penalties. One of those took the Chiefs from the 15 of the Chargers to their own 45 yard line leaving him having to complete a 3rd and 20. No one cares to hear about drops since at least those don’t back you up. |

Mahomes is safer and a better player right now but I wouldn’t because there’s something to drafting your guy and believing him. He’s also proven he can be an elite player. They 100% believe they can win a supeebowl/be in contention every year with LJ at qb and they’ve built the team around him. I legitimately don’t think Eric Decosta would make that trade but who the hell knows.

Yes, they would. Mahomes life span will be longer.

Lamar Jackson - 60/99, 60.5% comp., 707 yds, 5td, 2int, 90.8 qbr Mahomes - 88/144, 61% comp., 1120 yds, 7td, 2 int, 95.5 qbr Fair on the drops... it’s a lame excuse but 6 drops is pretty insane. The broader point is that I think it’s unfair to judge a player on one game when his body of work tells a different story. |

Stats are only as good as the data provided/gathered. Even then they leave out a lot of pertinent information. But if you're going to use statistical data to describe each player's efficiency in "comeback" attempts, then it would be necessary to use as much of the relevant data as possible. |

I’d trade Mahomes for Kyler Murray and Joe Burrow before id trade him for Lamaar.

Let's talk about the Ravens
Quote:
On drops we spent years here having to focus on those things due to an inferior QB and now we see the opposite and aren’t likely to view drops as anything short of making excuses when the QB could have overcome them. This doesn’t make any sense. The stats are for when ahead, not tied, so the majority of his stats are done when the team is ahead with less pressure on the QB. So it’s nice to pile them up for MVP purposes and more comfortable wins but it shows a pretty well known trend of the Ravens being much more likely to keep scoring when not needed. Though at times I wish we did that more often. The Chiefs were 18th in fourth quarter ppg last season, the Ravens were 3rd. |

If we tackle anything like we did in the Chargers game, we will get blown away.

We lose this one and I will be so GLAD to EAT CROW if I am wrong. Keeping the band together and a disappearing of the D is actually heart breaking at this point of the season.

Their defense is lethal? I guess we will see after Mahomes drags them up and down the field. So how do you like your Crow? Bar B Qued? |

The only way they’re getting consistent pressure is from bringing 6-7 guys. And if they do that with any sort of regularity, Mahomes will eviscerate them.
