FACTS

I understand Steelers/Browns/Bengals/Titans/Bills/Chiefs/Commanders fans hating on the Ravens and Lamar

If they're not a fan of those teams, I assume they hate football/NFL or are racist.

Lamar is on the same list as Mahomes, Josh Allen, McCaffery, Bijan, Saquan, Henry, Garrett as most exciting players to watch play
I am a fan of the Steelers and have homies that live in Bmore and will never understand the hate of Lamar, they just started giving bing him weapons and last year should have been the year but them damn Chiefs and Bills are their kryptonite. With this season being so crazy I hope he rights the ship and makes it happen but they will still try to shyt on homie

I never seen a overrated 2x mvp before smh these fools will write anything for engagement
Lamar has one of the dumbest and easiest to ragebait fanbases

If you’re a writer and you want your work spread across the entire internet all you have to do is criticize Lamar and his fans will give all the free promo in the world

shyt works every single time

This contract makes zero sense. But I guess the GM sees less of a decline than pretty much everybody else. I think it’s insanity
even if they wanted to resign him why pay him so much

He wasn’t gonna get that on the open market this upcoming offseason

the most he would’ve gotten would probably be 2 years 14 mill or 3 years 21 mill

nobody was gonna pay a washed Andrews 13 mill per

this is almost as bad when they paid Dennis Pitta after he dislocated his hip the first time

every since the Flacco deal which was 13 fukking years ago this team has been handling out terrible contract after terrible contract

Are you guys re-signing Linderbaun or letting him walk? Dunno if the Lions can afford him but we might need him lol.

This is the effect of overpaying Andrews...I don't mind the question but it's a sign how poorly managed our roster is.

Personally think he's overrated...he's a Lamar Jackson merchant.
Get used to high snaps and Goff having to make a play out of nothing
I guess home games indoors + indoor game in Minesotta helps but I can see him struggling in bad weather (Green Bay, Chicago, etc)

But he's playing between 2 bench quality guards and has the worst offensive line coach

I have a headache thinking about your answer...idk

Should have sat him 2 weeks before the Bengals game.

Dicey, but if he's not rght then sit him vs the Steelers. He'll get hit far more vs the Steelers than he would the Bengals. He actually eluded the Bengals weak defense he just missed throws or the playmakers messed up.

RUN DERRICK HENRY AND KEATON 35 times.

The Raven cannot run the ball 35 times
The offensive line does not push bodies, avoid work, and plays soft.
They also force the offense to play behind the sticks, negating big plays with holding penalties, they commit false starts, etc.

Team has literally been in bad cap situations since making Flacco the highest paid QB 12 years ago

Since then its been one bad contract after another

You pay Dennis Pitta after he dislocated his hip which made no sense

You pay Ray Rice then cut him a year later and basically have to eat his entire contract

You make Brandon Williams who is a 2 down run stopper one of the highest paid DTs

You overpay a washed Earl Thomas and cut him after 1 year and eat all his dead money

You pay Stanley 100 mill and he literally breaks his leg 2 days later and spends the next 4 years either hurt or playing terrible

You pat Marlon 100 mill and he immediately becomes one of the worst cover corners in the league

You pay Marcus Williams a top 5 contract for him to be injured every year and terrible the few games he actually plays

You pay Roquon 100 mill when nobody else in the league is giving off ball LBs that type of deal

You finally get out the Stanley deal and turn around and pay him 20 mill per and he goes right back to being terrible

You give Bateman 2 extensions when hes clearly a 1st round bust

You pay a 31 year old RB for no reason when you already have him under contract

Lamar and Kyle are the only 2 I can think of that got paid and actually lived up to the contract in the last decade

I don’t know how the front office keeps getting a pass for all these horrible roster decisions

I literally said this in week 2 when it was obvious the line was horrible

They have to be a pass happy team to be successful this year

the line aint good enough to run against stacked boxes

You have to consistently throw to open up the run

Anyone who thinks we should be giving Henry 25+ carries obviously aren’t watching the games

most of his carries are wasted downs
