I'm glad that Lamar is faking an injury, quit on his team, is sitting out Sunday, and that the Bengals win in 4

Hypothetically if the Bengals win the super bowl, and the last time they lose a football game is October 31st, I will be super insufferable for like 8 months. Possibly forever.

Yeah I don't know, I think the Lamar thing is weird. It starts as just an injury that's going to keep him out for a couple weeks and now Harbaugh is weird and testy and cryptic about it when talking to the media. Then Lamar makes a Twitter thread about his injury. Now Watkins is suggesting that Jackson is healthy enough to play but won't put himself at risk until he has a contract. Watkins believes in some weird poo poo but I doubt he's only the one in the building with that Jackson take. (And if true, I of course wouldn't blame Lamar one bit.)

My guess is team doctors told Lamar/Harbaugh that his injury was minor and he should be back for the regular season finale. Lamar got a second opinion from his personal doctor and the prognosis was to rest more since it was more severe. FO and Lamar don't want to make a fuss since contract talks are looming. Harbaugh is vague as he was left out to dry since he would have to choose a narrative - Lamar can play or organization is rushing his rehab.

I don't like Lamar either, but this is the second franchise QB in a row the team has been extremely hesitant in wanting to pay without getting at least a ring from first, and if Flacco hadn't had the greatest playoff run ever he wouldn't have gotten it in the first place It's fair at this point to say the team does bullshit hurdles he shouldn't have to jump through and somewhere else would gladly pay him without anywhere near as much hesitation (if/when that deal goes awry we can definitely still laugh but that he should be paid is hard to doubt) Someone's going to excuse it by bringing up "they can still tag!!!", which is for losers and has already been proven ineffective to the long-term issue (see Washington with Cousins; when you clearly don't want to extend someone long-term/pay the man but don't want anyone else to have him yet either and make it blatantly obvious)

I think the dumbest gamble you can possibly make is that no one else is going to want to pay a capable starting quarterback more than you want to pay them.

Honestly my gut feeling is Lamar is gone after the season. I've seen enough college basketball to be familiar with the "18 year old kid with parents, handlers, random uncles etc in their ear" being a headache for the coach and team. Lamar comes across as a likeable, fun, but immature and not incredibly bright guy who makes many poor decisions off the field (and sometimes on). And frankly based on his up and down performance, playoff stats, and mysterious illnesses/injuries he doesn't deserve to be the highest paid quarterback in the league. Neither does Watson but that's a different story. Lamar is great when he's on, but when he's not he's not. That 2019 year is doing a lot of heavy lifting, and for every poop game comeback you get something like 2 years agos Dolphins game. That said They tried to half assedly fix the wide receiver situation who then promptly all get injured because they refuse to fire the pro-COVID guy, and draft a bunch of tight ends that they don't use or also get injured (or both), and beyond that no one can tell if Lamar is a high ceiling low floor guy or high ceiling high floor worth the mega contract because the idiots decided to stick with the clown offensive coordinator. Basically the team has mismanaged the entire situation -based on publicly available information- if they want him to stay here -unless- they're going to meet his salary demands. Roquan Smith represented himself, presumably without his mom and Kodak Black advising him, and became the highest paid ILB in like 2 months, so it's possible in theory to get it done.

Lamar comes across as a likeable, fun, but immature and not incredibly bright guy who makes many poor decisions off the field (and sometimes on). To be fair to Lamar and his performance/s though. His poorish seasons have been 2021 and 2022. His offensive supporting cast has been a casualty ward, the offensive line has been up and down like a loving yo-yo and his offensive coordinator has been phoning it in. I wouldn't blame him if he was sitting back thinking, my knee doesn't feel 100%. Ive seen other players just get ground into dust and given no support because the team knows they're good enough, why would I sign here until I'm given at least a handshake promise that the teams going to do right by me? I know the Panthers for example aren't a perfect team but right now they've got a better offensive line, a better receiver group and they will 100% pay as much as a the Ravens for him to come play there. The guy would have rocks in his head to suit up and play for this team. Yeah - make the playoffs and anything can happen, but not for the Ravens. They don't have a running back you can point to that's both healthy and effective and you can't point to a single receiver that would start on another team and the offensive line has not been good. I still think that his first three years in the league are a better showing of what he can do than the last two have been and I think if he wanted to be in Baltimore he would have already signed and would be braced, needled and suited up to play this weekend.

If we are in a situation where Lamar could play, but is choosing not to because he doesn't want to reaggeavate his injury and he just doesn't care if that ends the Ravens' season, then, well, he's right to do it. The Ravens have had a whole lot of time to not lowball him and build a real offense around him. If they go down like punks on Sunday and Lamar scoots off to the Jets or whatever, then they have nobody to blame but themselves. It's not on him to turn himself into RG3 2.0 so Harbaugh and Roman can keep their jobs.

I mean surely the Ravens are going to franchise Lamar if they continue to insist on not just signing him long term for whatever the gently caress reason? He isn’t going to “scoot off” to anywhere unless they let him.

On one hand, the Ravens haven’t exactly given Lamar a lot of help on the offense between Roman and the dozen geriatrics they’ve signed as WR. On the other, he has had an apparent season-ending injury the last 3 seasons (though 2020 was a concussion sustained in the 3rd quarter of a playoff loss). The whole situation is about as clear as milk and figuring out what the right move is for the Ravens is basically impossible. It seems like even odds at this point that he winds up a Pat or something and wins 4 SBs vs collapsing into dust the minute he gets his 250 guaranteed.

There's a difference between a franchise tag because you want to get his rear end in camp while you work out a deal and a franchise tag where the player says go gently caress yaself and refuses to play or sign.

What poor decisions off the field has he made? Being serious here, as of now I'd love for him to walk and the Giants sign him so Daboll can do actual, literal football magic. Kawalimus has infected a lot of brains. I know he hasn't been as good as his MVP caliber recently but everyone seems to be trying to talk themselves out of giving him a deal
