Ok so let's be fair, if Lamar Jackson is judged to a different standard because hes a 2x MVP, then how about he gets ranked like a 2x MVP, meaning Josh Allen and Joe Burrow should in no QB Ranking whatsoever ever be placed above Lamar Jackson, and every comparison should be between Lamar & Mahomes. No. We judge Lamar Jackson more harshly but give him less praise for doing more with less.

As of last season, Lamar has proved he can continue to play well. This narrative started when he was 0-2 his what? Second year as a starting QB. That’s actually insane.

Right, but when Lamar's WR's fumble at the one yard line in the championship game, that's on him. The point is that we can all make excuses Also, when Stephan A brings up expectations. Just because he got the projection wrong doesn't mean that the bills should get more credit. The Bills have always had a good balanced team ever since Josh Allen has come. (Now if they can win a championship that would be different) If you want to talk about expectations, then no one is more deserving of praise than Lamar. Scouts and nfl personnel were literally telling him he can't play QB and now he is a 2 time MVP. Sure he hasn't had much playoff success. But other than PM no one has in recent times. Nothing against Allen or any other QB for that matter but I swear joe Burrow gets more credit for getting to the superbowl and losing than Lamar get for his whole career.

Plus the points scored for in the 3 losses is averaging 28 for the bills and 34.6 for the chiefs. Vs the 10 for Lamar in the one game.. it’s only one game yeah but Allen gets credit because it’s not him that’s really the problem in the loss and the one game Lamar only got them 10… 17 if you wanna count the fumble as a td.

this question was so stupid. Why does the blame HAVE TO go on the QB?? How about judging based on performance not just outcome??Josh hasn't been the problem any time they lost in the playoffs. He didn't miss the FG last year and he didn't give up the lead in 13 seconds after just scoring a TD in 2022. It has ALWAYS been special teams, defense, and coaching. Josh outplayed Mahomes in both games. That's the difference between him and Lamar. Go compare their playoff stats. And look at last year's AFC championship, the Ravens defense showed up but the offense and Lamar didn't. Josh plays his best in the biggest games, Lamar doesn't. He stat pads in Week 15 against the worst team in the league.

When his kicker and defense deliver like the badasses they should be in the postseason, the Super Bowl appearances and wins will follow. Lamar is an amazing talent and he always puts up numbers in the regular season, but his postseason presence needs work. The most pressure right now is on the Buffalo Bills not named Josh Allen.

Josh beat Lamar in the playoffs plus Lamar has 9tds & 9 turnovers in the playoffs Josh has 21 tds & 4 ints in the playoffs Josh has won more playoff gms lamar has a super bowl winning coach Josh don’t

[@shonda79able]

I understand what Kimberly is saying but Lamar hasn't played well in the playoffs. And Buffalo has to beat KC when it matters eventually.

[@HaroldCratsley]

He's one of the best playoff qb ever look at the stats talking dummies

[@DustyDustington89]

Thank god for Lamar and Allen, wouldn’t know if these guys would have a topic people would click on without these two.

[@traivonhearn6949]

People say Allen is better than Lamar, but then gives him every pass

[@kevingoins1591]

That is moving the goal post. In the playoffs Lamar completed a 27 yard bomb to Zay Flowers, who taunts the defender and moves them back 15 yards 1-25. Lamar hits Zay Flowers running into the end zone to win the game, but the Chiefs defender punches the ball out at the 2 inch line to prevent the touchdown. The narrative is Lamar played terrible. Just like in this years game against Josh, Lamar outplayed Josh 35-10 Lamar 135.4 passer rating to Josh Allen 73.9. The very next game against Houston Josh completed 9-30 for a 56.4 passer rating, and the narrative is he is balling out?

[@Patrick-b2i]

What about all his others games?

[@RoddLoco4731]

What has Josh Allen did that makes him so better than Lamar…Josh Allen throws picks every game…..FIRST TAKE IS A LEMAR HATER

[@Patrick-b2i]

Throwing 5 picks In 15 games is throwing a pick every game?

[@Theinvisibleman26]

He was criticizing lamar jackson for not winning a superbowl when he only had one mvp. Remember last year when they said joe borrow was better than lamar because of his superbowl appearance. When it was note that borrow had better receivers, they said "you dance with the girl you bring"

[@slimvickins5059]

Ravens have had incomparably better rosters and coaching than the Bengals. Why are you Lamar fanboys so fixated on WRs?😂

[@slimvickins5059]

Ravens would be Super Bowl Champions right now if they had a QB like Burrow

[@vincebato4129]

People do forget that allen got BLOWN OUT by the chiefs in the afc championship game 😭🤣

[@DoubleKAllday]

Lamar is better all around

[@Ravensnation94]

The goal post always moves with Lamar from he should play wr, to he can’t win a playoff game, to he can’t win a Super Bowl. Then it will be he can’t win 2

[@ezekwu]

exactly...

[@theape6778]

i've always believed thats fair since he's always been QB2 in my eyes(well maybe not this year) Burrow hopping both of them is always crazy to me because the only reason he did is make a superbowl(a team accomplishment more than anything). Josh and Lamar have the stats with Lamar admittedly being a hampered w his playoff appearances early on

[@Theinvisibleman26]

The question is about this year, not previous years

[@sodblitz3445]

Someone tell mad dog and Stephen Allen is 0-3 versus mahomes in the playoffs... And has only ever made it to the AFC championship the same as Lamar Jackson

[@Oct13ths]

you know it’s bad when there’s more comments than likes

[@MeiA-h9r]

Kimberley is right

[@tylertaylor5483]

Not even close at all 😂

[@taywest7287]

Lamar had a good game against Mahomes this year they just lost

[@jerryarnold567]

Kimberly makes this unwatchable. No angry women on sports shows please!!!

[@MrQuileo]

The pressure is on Josh better record probable mvp 10 playoff games 1 afc championship appearance

[@diversity4210]

Stephen A. needs to advocate for Kimberly to lose her job like he do these head coaches

[@brotherYari]

😂

[@SeiyaSoiya-un4jj]

This was supposed to be a rebuild year for the Bills. Josh was supposed to be “exposed” without Diggs and most people picked Miami or the Jets to win the division.

[@christopherwarburton1889]

Exactly this! 💯

[@NitroVipers3]

A ring has nothing to do with the QB alone its a team game. Judging a player by rings is moronic.

[@haywood0457]

SAS the primary media influencer hating on the black man smh.

[@soda8736]

Victim mentality

[@highbulp1]

Why do these “experts” think winning games is a QB stat?

[@bluemagic_3063]

The difference between Lamar criticism and Josh criticism is the fact that sports analysts look forward to Lamar’s poor play than they do Josh. That’s because their critique on that Lamar should’ve been a rb or wr would be proven right. Whereas Josh they try to sugar coat it. They say Josh is better but give him more excuses because if he’s better then yall should criticize him for not making a Super Bowl or having a MVP way more than criticizing Lamar playoffs performances.

[@DoubleHeader97]

Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson: The New Peyton Manning, Ben Roethlisberger, Philip Rivers, or any AFC playoff quarterback who played during the Tom Brady era. Regular season success and stats do not silence critics; only championships.

[@deehollywood6013]

If you lose to someone three times in the playoffs, at some point that works against you too. It's like the Bills losing all those Superbowls.

[@JT-mn2op]

Josh Allen beat Lamar already in the playoffs let’s not forget that either

[@yordanyhernandez4911]

Espn gotta look for people who know What they talking about

[@scruffd0g193]

No way the argument is “how much criticism should he get?”

[@kevinmiller5381]

Josh is doing on his own.... He's clearly the MVP. But defense is needed In the playoffs. I'm calling Eagles as the SB champion this year...

[@MikkiChavez]

Didn't they go get Amari Cooper after 2 horrific games by Allen with ZERO TDs? Isn't Shakir the league leader in YAC? Don't Bills have a top 5 oline? MVP when in the same year he played the easiest schedule in all of football, went 2 straight games without a TD & his team had to hit the panic button for Amari is some ELITE level delusion. Mfs act like only the end of the season counts lol Lamar has better stats across the board & he isn't stat padding 1 Yards TDs .

[@jorgeoliveira1592]

​@@MikkiChavez woah there buddy Lamar was bad against the steelers...another point is at the beginning of the season nobody....NOBODY had the bills as a contender...oh they lost Diggs oh they lost some defensive players while the Ravens were picked to go to the superbowl!

[@MikkiChavez]

@jorgeoliveira1592 so his team having 3 fumbles & the kicker missing 2 field goals is HIS fault? Blaming the Steelers loss on Lamar is a perfect definition of WATCH THE GAMES

[@MikkiChavez]

@jorgeoliveira1592 so because of bunch of Media analyst were ready to throw a pity party for Allen that means they weren't contenders? Guess you missed them picking up Amari after Allen lost 2 straight with ZERO TDs smh . Allen has always had better coaching & weapons than Lamar. He's had the #1 defense twice & still can't win. Lamar has had no elite WR play his entire career. Allen has had Diggs & company. Allen is not the MVP can't just erase what happened this year

[@jorgeoliveira1592]

@@MikkiChavez first of all Lamar had in my opinion the best team last year besides the 49ers top 5 defense buddy...and Ze Flowers isn't a scrub either....the Amari cooper trade just made sense no quarterback can win a superbowl without either a top TE or a top WR that goes for all quarterbacks so even if Allen didnt get 2 losses they would still trade for Amari, second i didnt blame Lamar for the loss I only said he played bad..well to his standards

[@geraldsportsjr6074]

We all know it should be Josh Allen but the media hates on Lamar Jackson for some weird season.

[@zombieturds]

Allen went 9 for 30 and had historically the worst game a qb has had completion percentage-wise. Yeah that's real mvp material there 🙄

[@JpCalm]

Majority of people predicted bills wouldn’t even make the playoffs before the season

[@gillokonkwo791]

They both are under pressure. Lamar is definitely under more. They have a better team.

[@liqidvenom]

The knock on Jackson by Smith was that he is the only 2x MVP with no championships, then he later says championships dont matter only beating Mahomes...
