I don't know why, but I'm pretty happy for the crazy ass dildo throwing, cocaine snorting, table smashing maniac Bills fans.
Sucks that Lamar didn't get a chance to answer.

I'm going for the Bills or Browns both have been miserable for years and it's nice to see them get a chance.I am definitely on the Bills bandwagon
I’ll have a hard time deciding between Bills-Packers if it gets to that point. I’m super happy for Josh Allen and all that he’s done but I love how Aaron Rodgers have given a big F You to the Packers front office by playing out of his mind after they drafted a young QB in the 1st round. Good for him.
Yeah that was always my worry with him coming out of the draft. He was always going to be one of the best athletes in the entire league, but the dude can't throw to save his life. Or at least at a level needed to be a good QB.I'm going for the Bills or Browns both have been miserable for years and it's nice to see them get a chance.
As for the Ravens, I don't know what they are going to do. Lamar Jackson is not going to win them a championship. He just can't make enough plays with his arm. Crazy good athlete but in the playoffs you need to consistently make plays with your arm to win. You can win the occasional game like they did against Tennessee, but you aren't going to win 3-4 in a row against good teams without consistent passing attack. For reference Lamar had less passing yards than Drew Lock this year and Lamar played two extra games. Can't expect to win playoff games when you are near the bottom in passing. Not in this pass happy era of football.
I will say the one thing that's different between the two is Vick had a cannon for an arm. He wasn't great at reading defenses or that accurate but he could at least bomb it. Lamar doesn't really ever get much on the ball.Kind of feel like Lamar is going to have that Michael Vick career. Vick would make the playoffs those first few years and then yeah - the legs don’t get the job done for a QB in playoff time. And as the years went on Vick became less and less effective as the athletic ability went south.
Lamar is a better NFL QB than Vick ever was.
Big time. Jackson's two seasons as a starter - as a 22 and 23 year old, no less - have already seen him throw more TD's in both seasons than Vick ever did in any single season.Lamar is a better NFL QB than Vick ever was.
Its easy to not throw INTs when you are only asked to throw it maybe 25 times, and 22+ are easy short reads. They don't ask much of him in the passing game, you can get away with it in the regular season, but you'll exposed in the playoffs where you have to match good teams every week. Don't believe me game logs this year show over 30 attempts twice, under 20 three times, the other 10 were between 20-30 attempts. 7 games where his yards per completion was under 7 yards per throw. In this day and age that screams, we don't trust or qb to make throws. You're entering into Drew Lock territory when you have multiple games under 7 yards per competition. And that's not good company.Big time. Jackson's two seasons as a starter - as a 22 and 23 year old, no less - have already seen him throw more TD's in both seasons than Vick ever did in any single season.
He's also only thrown 6 and 9 INT's, respectively, through those two seasons. As a starter, Vick's lowest INT throwing season was 6 but he only played 12 games. He was always in the 12-14 INT range while being nowhere near Lamar's TD range. Then there's the fact that Lamar is just a straight up better runner than Vick ever was, and Vick was amazing at it.
Mmmm maybe. Vick was in an era where running QB's weren't a thing at all, I think he'd be a similar level player if he was in his prime now. Jackson has definitely been the more productive player, but his team and the league is far more conducive to mobile QB's.Lamar is a better NFL QB than Vick ever was.
I never remember seeing Vick line up in a pistol formation or any type of RPO. Coaches have definitely started to crack the mysteries of how to utilize a running QB in the NFL.
Vick’s arm did set him apart though I think talent wise. Maybe the video is still out there on YouTube but I think the guy could throw 70 yards. It was just ridiculous.
all that being said if I had to go after the most athletic qb of all time (that was equally good at throwing/running the ball) I would have to go Randall Cunningham or Steve Young. I never saw Fran Tarkenton play though - I heard he was great as well.
I'm fairly certain the Philadelphia Eagles incorporated this a bit once Vick took over for McNabb, though not nearly to the extent we see it today.I never remember seeing Vick line up in a pistol formation or any type of RPO.

Even then he wasn't quite the same runner as when he was in Atlanta, so his talents were never really fully utilized.I'm fairly certain the Philadelphia Eagles incorporated this a bit once Vick took over for McNabb, though not nearly to the extent we see it today.
Shocker, it was Andy Reid coaching the guy.
At least it wasn’t anyone from the Pats.Not really a fan of Minnesota’s decisions the last few years. Hope this guy doesn’t bring that year.
I would have lost it if they went back to that well, after the whole McDaniels fiasco.At least it wasn’t anyone from the Pats.
They’re The Hoodie’s Manchurian Candidates.I would have lost it if they went back to that well, after the whole McDaniels fiasco.
Stay away from everything New England unless you want your team to fail miserably.
If his plan of action is to target Trubisky he should be fired before even being given the opportunity.Supposedly Paton is fairly highly regarded? I don’t know much about him, though. Did I read we are in the mix for Trubisky, of all people?
