Re: At what point does Lamar Jacksons contract become a problem?
Huntley beat the Bears which is one of those eight wins and two of the others included a one point win vs. KC at home which wouldn't have happened without a late fumble and a 66 yard Tucker FG at the buzzer in Detroit.That record was always deceiving.
2019 TD36 INT6 QBR 113.3
2020 TD26 INT9 QBR 99.3
2021 TD16 INT13 QBR 87
Granted there were other factors involved but that's not exactly the trajectory you want to see when considering a $40m per season long term contract.

Re: At what point does Lamar Jacksons contract become a problem?
Im not sure Lamar really reads defenses. There are many times it seems to me he either looks for Andrews or Brown to the exclusion of everyone else on the field. Hence the interceptions thrown into double and triple coverage when there are other receivers/backs open.

Re: At what point does Lamar Jacksons contract become a problem?
Exactly. You can tell their being disingenuous because they can point out the shaky wins, but no mention of the Ls we had where Lamar put the cape on and the defense folded, like the Raiders game. Are we really going to blame him for the first Bengals loss when the defense was getting absolutely cooked to the bone? Like how can you call the Colts win shaky when the dude literally put on his cape and had the best 4th quarter of quarterback play I’ve ever seen. Like how is that seen as a negative? Lol it’s wild.

Re: At what point does Lamar Jacksons contract become a problem?
Im not saying Lamar is bad. Im not saying he hasnt had moments where he has really shined. All Im trying to point out is 2 things. First that 8-3 was about the weakest, luckiest 8-3 Ive ever seen. Second, Lamar had a real solid supporting cast around him in 19 and 20. Not so much in 21. I read post after post about how Mayfield needs a great running game, top flight OL, and very good receivers in order to win. Now, I do think Jackson is substantialy better than Mayfield, but the question becomes is he worth 40+ mil/year? A second question is would Lamar have won as many games in 19-20 if he didnt have an excellent run blocking OL and an excellent running game? The skill level of his receivers was better this season than it has been since he got here yet he didnt do so well in the passing game. How much of that was the OL and how much of that was Lamar?
