Lamar Jackson

How is he so good in the NFL?
when I saw him play against us, he couldn't hit the broadside of the barn. now he is accurate. of course he was a freak talent when it comes to rushing and its no surprise.
Is NFL coaching so much superior or good old petrino sucks. wasnt he supposed to be a qb whispered?
I have to agree that the ravens are a great organization and The elder Harbaugh is a decent coach.

I am not sure what game you watched but he sure looked like he could pass in College to me.
The only questions were could he read defenses and could He stand the beating He would get running in the NFL

The NFL will catch up to him in a year or sooner just like Vick! He is no Rodgers or Watson or Wilson or Mahomey but he is ok.

As a Ravens fan . . I was skeptical. I was most worried about him getting hurt. That hasn't happened yet. And watching him every game, he does have a knack for not getting hit hard. That can't be over looked and it is something most didn't know about. As a passer, he has really improved. He has always thrown a decent deep ball , and that is important. But what he has improved so much at are the middle passes. Dropping it over the shoulder, altering his arm angle to make a throw that normally wouldn't happen. Again, not to be over looked. The Ravens sent him to get some help and they also brought some people to help him, to the organisation. And also , just as important, they designed an entire offense around what he does best. How many teams do that? Yes, I had some faith that the organization would be able to make things easier for him at first, but I didn't expect so much success. Tip your hat to the Ravens, and the coaching staff, as well as the scouts and such. If you really investigate the Ravens, you will find a huge commitment on their part to make this work. And so far, they are showing how, if you know what you are doing as a n organization, it can be done. The Ravens have always been considered a great organization.

This Sunday will be fascinating to watch. Pulling for DW but I do admire LJ as a player.

Stay out of the way and let the talent rise. Step in with assistance when necessary. The rest coach from the 'Book of Paradigms'.

And as a fellow Ravens fan, I also expect this to be the peak of Lamar's career. Defenses will learn to game the offense and/or an injury will derail things. His throwing is actually not much improved but the Ravens have a loaded TE core and a great system for him.

I don't agree. His passes are much better in the short and intermediate range, compared to last year. He has always thrown deep well.

I'm not seeing it. He's gotten very lucky with defenders dropping picks (at least 2 in the Pats game and 2 in the Steelers game). I think it's an illusion because our receivers are so wide open all the time. A 15 yard out is just randomly thrown near the receiver and most of these have been completions thus far this year because there is no defender in sight.

That said, props to Jackson who is exceeding my and most folks’ expectations of his NFL career. The young man has learned to pass and his running is Vick-plus.

I hated him at UL but love him as a Raven. Perspective, I guess. Very fun to watch and he really is humble. And obviously talented.

The Humble part is so refreshing with the major Divas that littler the NFL.

He has practiced a lot over the last couple of years. He also needs to throw more than he did, so he is getting better. He has always had an amazing arm though.
