Lamar's Legacy Tracker...

[RedBull]

Isn’t dude like 26? Why are we talking about his legacy?

Black QBs get held to a different standard.

could end up with 2 MVPS and not even make the SB and than the narrative turns to he's a huge choker

This is hilarious. Let me ask you this, why is he a choker when folks said he couldn't even play QB in the NFL? So is Josh Allen underachieving?

Remember when Allen started nobody thought he would be a good NFL quarterback either...

I'd say Lamar already has a bit of a reputation as a choker, he simply has not been good in the playoffs. He's got to change this because right now he's Manning. Granted, that's still more of a compliment than a diss, but early Manning was this dominant Regular Season Warrior who played substandard every time he hit the postseason...

But my point is why are we not holding him to the same standard? He was taken before Lamar and a lot of people believe he's has the most potential of all QBs so why do we not say he's underachieving since a guy who was told he couldn't play the position has more MVPs than him. I like Allen and think he's a great QB, I don't even think he's the fault for the Bills failures but it's funny how Lamar gets held to a different standard.

I’m saying that’s how fast the script can flip on a narrative

Well Josh hasn't peaked as high as Lamar so simply put there aren't as many eyes on him. And because Lamar is excelling after being told to switch positions, look Allen is polarizing but Lamar is just a higher profile player. He was better than Allen to start their careers, he peaked higher than Allen, he's better than Allen now...

Also, winning an MVP in Y2 is some Marino shyt, all eyes are gonna be on you. And Allen has also led an AFC Championship run and multiple playoff wins...

The heat is coming soon for Allen too, the deeper he gets into his career with no extensive playoff success. I truly believe that...

But before the season no one was saying an of this. Hel you had people saying that he wasn't worth the contract after we lost to the Colts. And that's the problem I have. Lamar continues to prove people wrong and they keep moving the goalposts. While everyone else gets excuses made for them. And you are proving my point. None of this was said when he was trying to get a new contract. None of this was said prior to us going to SF and now folks are comparing him to all time greats. Why can't he be compared to his peers currently playing, who other than Mahomes are very far behind.

I really need for him to shine in the playoffs. I know my Cowboys are gonna shyt the bed no matter what. But after them I root for the Ravens because the are consistent af, and Lamar needs to have a great playoffs especially since he's tracking for another MVP. So no more early "flame-outs" if he loses in the Super Bowl that's fine. But I'd love to see him win just one finally for the "athletic" QB

 

[Blessings]

Let him win a Super Bowl first before we start talking legacies

Shaun Alexander, Boomer Esiason, Ken Anderson and Steve McNair all have MVPs aren't in the HOF

OP didn't list players with an MVP
He listed QBs with multiple MVPs

 

[Blessings]

In regards to the playoff losses:
First playoff loss....rookie who didn't play a full season

Second playoff loss


Third playoff loss you can put the blame on Lamar. But Marquise Brown/Snead/Boykin as a unit is pathetic

 

[L&HH]

Peyton Manning couldn’t win the big game, until he did.

John Elway couldn’t win the big game, until he did.

Andy Reid couldn’t win the big game, until he did.

Lamar will be fine - irrelevant of what happens to the Ravens in the upcoming playoffs.

Forget the big game, he’s not even making out the first round. This year they gotta show something.

Active, and former players + coaches are amazed
The only haters are random commentators online and those in sports media play contrarian.

Y’all underestimate how hard it is to win in the league and make it to the SB..this ain’t y’all Madden sims

Bruh, during the contract disputes, you have to remember his MVP was 3 years prior. In that 3 years, he hasnt played in the playoffs, he'd finished the previous two years injured, and his playoff career he'd lost 3 of his 4 games. There was cause to hesitate on giving him the money...

He bet on himself and now we all win because not only was he worth every cent, I can't say this enough, he's so much better than he's ever been. It's almost like a different player...

But there was reason to question giving him the money...

He needs the Superbowl badly.
