Even now, he is a 2x (possibly 3x) MVP who has played well in 1 out of 6 playoff games. If he plays like s**t again and the Ravens get bounced early, he might still not fetch two 1st round picks.
BTW, Purdy has had exponentially more playoff success in 1.5 seasons than Lamar has had in his whole career.
Dude this is a disappointing post coming from you. Someone else said it but with Jimmy G, you were in arguments on the other side of the fence regarding "his playoff success."
31 out of 32 teams would take Lamar Jackson over Brock Purdy. I'll give you the 49ers but I honestly think even they would take Lamar if given the choice
No this is not me contradicting myself based on QB. I would take Lamar over Purdy, but that wasnt my point. My point is, Lamar has been a** in ther playoffs. It actually has very little to do with his team losing. I am not and have never been a QB wins guy. But take a look at his stats:
Game 1: 48% completion, 194 passing yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT, 55 rushing yards, 1 lost fumble, 78.8 passer rating
Game 2: 52%, 365 yards, 1 TD, 2 INTs, 143 rushing yards,1 lost fumble, 63.2 rating
Game 3: 70%, 179 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT, 136 rushing yards, 1 rushing TD, 74.8 rating
Game 4: 58%, 162 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT, 34 rushing yards, 61.5 rating
Game 5: 73%, 152 yards, 2 TDs, 0 INTs, 100 rushing yards, 2 rushing TDs, 121.8 rating
Game 6: 54%, 272 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 54 rushing yards, 1 lost fumble, 75.5 rating
I am talking about how he individually played, not whether his team lost. Lamar had one exceptional game and five trash games. Jimmy G has absolutely nothing to do with my opinion of Lamar in the playoffs. Obviously, he can change his story. But as of now, he is a regular season legend and garbage in the playoffs.
Like I said, Lamar Jackson wasnt Lamar Jackson when he was going through the contract stuff. He was a 1x MVP who had never played a good playoff game in his career. Since then, he is a 1x or maybe 2x MVP who has played good in 50% of his playoff games.
