He'll be okay. He's already showed the ability to score TD's not on his feet but in the air too. It ain't like he's thrown an INT every possession but I haven't seen any threads on the good things he's done yet :Idontseeanything:

He was always going to be a player that needed to sit a season or two and be developed by a patient staff if he was going to have a chance at being a successful NFL QB. It’s part of why he wasn’t a top of the draft guy.

I’m not sure why people are freaking out that he looks exactly like a player that needs to sit a season or two and be developed by a patient staff after his first two preseason games.

He’ll be ok but hes not ready yet

He looks better than Flacco or Tyrod did during the preseason in their rookie years

He still needs to sit a year though.His accuracy when trying to throw a touch pass is awful

The only thing that worries me longterm is that hes not as fast as advertised and dude runs like a fukking RB

He doesn’t try to avoid contact at all but he’s slippery and doesn’t take flush hits like RG3 used to

Hes still gonna need to start sliding or getting out of bounds or he’s gonna get hurt alot

It is too early to tell. I am rooting for him (except when he plays philly)
athletically- he exceeds any QB in the NFL. He has a really good arm...not as good as Vick but still very good. His accuracy is so so in intermediate throws ..I dont know how good his deep ball is.

He needs time to understand coverages and that comes from film study and experience. If he becomes a film junkie he may do very very well

i gotta disagree with this

Cam is still the best athlete playing the qb position

Ive watched all 3 preseason games and been to 2 practices and Lamar isnt as fast as people think he is

hes more quick than fast

im starting to think he didnt run the 40 because he knew he'd be in the 4.5 range

he definitely doesnt have 4.3 speed like he claimed

Passes too floaty

Not fast enough through his progressions...

Isn't accurate at all...

He gonna need 2 to 3 seasons if he wants to be an NFL starter

He doesn't seem that fast to me either..either he isn't trying or he don't go trackstar speed...

Vick looked fast AF....

Lamar got the moves and the quickness, but straghtline speed, I don't think he got it...

we are splitting hairs...I dont know if he is 4.3 but im fairly sure he isn't a 4.5 guy. ok, maybe Cam is more athletic but you get my point..he is at the upper echelon of athleticism for the position.

If he keeps doing stuff like this, he's not going to be in the NFL for long. You already know rules for protecting QBs don't really apply to black QBs... he's gonna get himself hurt permanently if he doesn't alter his play style.



Vick played like that for years.

u dudes so microwave

give these dudes 2 or 3 years and then you'll see...

dudes was laughing at Goff his first year... got a better a coach for him and he look decent his second year...

i personally don't like the ravens offensive scheme, which doesn't fit his game...

he need a more sean mcvay type system
exactly.. I will NEVER write off another QB after I shat on Goff for 12months straight.. only to come back like a top 10 QB


Lamar will be fine
