It's clear that neither Kiper or Polian have watched any Lamar Jackson film this season. He's my QB3 behind mayfield and Rosen. He's better than Deshaun Watson as a college QB coming out and can have a similar impact on an NFL team imo
Gonna take the right coach and tailor an offense to him in order to come along and have a chance IMO.
All that you're saying here is that he needs a good coach. And yeah, i agree. But that's the same for every QB. The best coaches make sure to build around their player's strengths. No reason to try and fit s square peg into a circle.
Mariota was bad in the titans offense this year bc they try to fit him in a system instead of building a system that fits him. On the other hand, nick Foles won the super bowl bc his coach was able to build around his strengths. Look at how McCvay turned Goff around.
Where i don't agree is that teams will have to move mountains for Lamar to "have a chance". He's not some special case that needs special attention. His biggest issue is inconsistent accuracy due to bad footwork. That can be fixed.
He's going to tear up the NFL with good receivers. Just like with Watson last year, these media talking heads will eat their words. Especially when Josh allen becomes Kyle Boller
Watch this clip of Matt Waldman (one of the best in the biz) break it down
