I agree with, most of what you are saying, LJ has not thrown a lot of pick, I really can not explain that other than to say he has a tendency to run unless the Pass is clearly open. I never said he was stupid, because he has clearly been careful with the ball.Like Bearly said below.......
Anyway.....
IDK.......If u thoroughly read the linked article below, if so, I think you'll find that his teammates and coaches are going more in-depth about the different ways he's progressing vs. giving a quick "Company Line." Even his back-up Qb has good things to say. He could have easily avoided commenting.
As preseason opens, Lamar Jackson makes big leap as passer ..

Yes I can see your point about the some LJ's passes being "dirt balls" without pressure. He's gotta work on mechanics. I notice
u haven't said much about him not throwing lots of INTS. in his
college and pro career any reason? I always look at lots on picks as the sign of an 'atrocious passer', how about u?

Ok Mdbearz, I hear ya on this. It should also be noted that the Ravens went 6-1 and made the playoffs with LJ at Qb as a rookie.
And no, this takes nothing away from what Trubz did as a rookie....lets be clear on that
lol....please note I consistently said Trubz is " going into his 3rd yr. " And we should expect that he'd be ahead of any rookie Qb.
I'll add, Trubz should be ahead of any rookie ( with 6-7 starts) going into his 2nd yr.
He is a tremendous athlete that can make people miss with his feet so the team record, was going to reflect that particularly early on, before teams realized that they could not shadow him with a LB, because he would make most look silly, BUT, as teams got more film on him, they were able to “reduce” his running impact.
As far as the coaches and teammates saying the right thing, John Harbaugh has a real grasp on team chemistry and he has developed that Culture that says you support your teammates and players or you play for someone else. He is the Leader, something that his brother has never figured out..
Bottom line for me is that I see that LJ has a fatal flaw in his game, and it will eventually cost the team the opportunity to win a championship.
I tend to think that a QB like Trubisky gives a team a much better chance to win a SB than a QB like Lamar....
