    Oh lol I didn’t see it was a Browns forum, I just grabbed the first 3 articles I saw. Doubling down on a bad take is irrelevant, just because they’re wrong doesn’t mean they’re not saying it. And the other one was about the oddsmakers which reflects a general opinion that he’ll decline from the whole community.

    I mean Jackson has been unfairly criticized and written off for the majority of his NFL career. That’s not an us vs them mentality, that’s just true. And it took an all time great Quarterback season from him to begin to turn that page. It is turning, that’s for sure, but the detractors remain, especially from the common fan. If Jackson regresses, or god forbid gets injured, it will be trendy to hate and say I told you so all over again. It’s all you’d hear about. Mayfield regresses miserably in year 2 and you get the odd article. If Jackson had that season, his name would never leave the news. It’s absolutely true.

    A few examples:
    5 months ago: https://www.google.com/amp/s/foxspor...ss-in-the-nfl/

    3 weeks ago:
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/ravensw...l-regress/amp/

    4 months ago:
    https://247sports.com/nfl/cleveland-...062880/?page=3


    Now I know you can find articles praising Lamar as well, but my point is that his detractors are still out there. And that’s just the media. I feel the message is far more prevalent on social media and among general NFL fans.
    So the first one is indeed a pundit saying his prime will be shorter than many.

    The second one is just commentary on what appears to me like a fairly reasonable betting line. 27 passing TDs is technically “a regression” but it would’ve had him tied for 4th in the NFL last year. His stats are probably going to get worse in some areas; that doesn’t mean he got worse as a player.

    The third one is a Browns message board lmao

    I think it's now down to jealousy or complete lack of understanding the numbers and the game. They are still just parroting the media narrative of Lamar's rookie year.

    None know facts like he had the 6th best passer rating of all time or that he led the league in touchdown passes, FROM THE POCKET!
