Are you disappointed that Lamar didn't sign with your Falcons?

Alright, fine. Divisional round then. That seems to be the ceiling for Jackson. That team will not be a serious contender for the foreseeable future.
Seeing falcon fans act like they’re too good for Lamar Jackson is weird to me

Felt like a tie. He turned down a mint. He wanted every penny guaranteed. It ended up being about 75% guaranteed. I thought he got what he originally wanted and the Ravens got what they wanted at the beginning.

You won’t openly say this, but you 100% think all the drama is solely a race issue

For me, it has nothing to do with being "too good" for Jackson and everything to do with having more than 10 years of data that shows that giving out contracts like this doesn't work out for the team unless the QB is Patrick Mahomes.

Hefty investment for a guy that is always injured. I don't see the appeal but I guess the Ravens don't have many options.

Saying that he's better than Lamar or any top 15 QB for that matter is insanity.
you will be proven wrong after this upcoming season

NVM: Cleveland has Watson.
Total brain fart after long day of work.

Who is Cleveland's QB?
They don't have one right now. That is my point.
Deshaun Watson

More like confusing correlation with causation. many said the same thing when Mahomes signed his deal now he’s the exception. Has anyone besides Wilson won on a rookie deal in that time frame? Eta Mahomes first I guess.
Winning the SB is extremely difficult, there no one “proven formula” that doesn’t involve a lot of 20/20 hindsight. Baltimore may not win with Jackson but chances are they will be better over the next 5 years with him than other options (to get Richardson as you said you would, would require them to trade up)

Not only race but that is part of it. You definitely won't admit that

A guy with mediocre accuracy and ongoing injury problems for $50 million a season.
