How much pressure is on Lamar Jackson this Saturday at 4:30 p.m?
This is the question that’s all over these sports shows and social media. I definitely think this is by far the biggest game in his career to date. Lamar has killed every narrative about him up to this point except the playoff narrative. It would be devastating to his reputation if we lost this game regardless of the MVP.
We are at home, against a rookie QB, rookie head coach, we have the number 1 defense, no more Roman, new weapons. We need this W.
My prediction: He’s ready and locked in. I trust Lamar and believe in him to get the job done.

This is his chance to show everyone he can get it done in the post season.
I just hope he isn’t super amped at the start and try to do too much.
He’s done less hero ball this season. Maybe that’s just a function of having better weapons and a better OC.
I think he’s under a lot of pressure but I think he’s up for it.

They’ll talk about it and show playoff loss clips during pregame
All the players have said he’s locked in at a different level. And they have guys like Roquan.
There’s something like 20 FA guys that may not be back. I think they all realize this may be the best opportunity of their career to win a SB.

The concern is what it has always been, how will LJ deal with adversity if it presents itself. He plays brilliantly from ahead, but has struggled from behind. I believe that the defense can contain Stroud under the conditions of this game, and so this shouldn't be too big of a problem. But it's something that will occur at some point in the playoffs, either this Saturday or beyond, unless you think the Ravens will blow everyone out on the way to the Lombardi (not likely). This is the narrative that he's going to have to put away with his play.

Particularly in the SF game, he seemed a bit shaky initially, but eventually composed himself and played really good. I am optimistic that he can manage the pressure, and hope the coaching staff will provide support to help him regain composure if he feels overwhelmed.

There is some pressure on him to perform.
More MVPs than playoff wins is not a good look.
Though I will say, seeing Lamar with that smirk on being asked about scoring more than 20 points was very reassuring.
