lol. Exhibit A Jalen Hurts…You gotta win man. That would solve the problem. If you're the best you gotta prove it otherwise yeah people will talk about you sideways especially if you're Black.
Sigh. Again, he lacks consistency. Also, Eagles had/have one of the greatest rosters ever assembled. You gotta win, AND be the unquestioned reason you winning
When Hurts balled out in their Super Bowl loss he was praised non stop. It wasn’t until he had inconsistent play——with 2 WR1s, a top tier TE, a goat RB, and an elite defense mind you——that people started nitpicking. Rightfully so
Winning PLUS being the reason you won. Matt Stafford is untouchable bc he did both. Mahomes did both. Peyton Manning did both, but then when he won and was NOT the reason why in Denver, people shyt on him and practically disregard that ring.
Stop making this a black QB thing. It’s embarrassing af
Depends on who you ask. Apparently since the Ravens are having a down season, it’s Lamar's fault.

They're both the great white hopes.
I follow the Ravens.Lamar has been my favorite QB since entering the league, but the discussions around him are disingenuous on both sides.
He’s been a HOF QB, but has also struggled during the playoffs, although a lot of blame can be placed on coaching and his own weapons.
I haven’t really heard much criticism of him this year. He’s been hurt, but there really hasn’t been a ton of criticism towards him.
I will agree some other QB’s, such as the most overrated QB in two decades in Joe Burrow, does not get the same criticism as Lamar.
I follow the Ravens.
I heard all the disgusting “criticisms” from faking faking injuries, quitting on the team, sleeping during meetings, up late playing video games, physically declining, not all the way there cognitively, etc.
From this year? I haven’t really heard any of that, and I’d figure it’d be all over the place if it was being said by a lot of people.
Not saying you’re wrong, but that’s the first I'm hearing all that.

The man was literally at a press conference the other day addressing the report that he was sleeping in team meetings.
Nick Wright addressed it on his show. ESPN did too.
Using your own logic in this thread Pat Mahomes is literally the only QB worth praise in the NFL. That can't be a serious stance.
‘
Not true.That’s kinda the point. Sports discourse is at its most irrational and nitpicking and ‘what have you done for me lately’….oh but when it’s Lamar it’s ‘hey hey hey let’s be rational‘
Lamar is being judged just as harshly and with a fine tooth comb like anyone else
Lastly, if you want to be appreciated for your past accomplishments and be removed from criticism….retire.![]()
