Lamar Jackson muestra ‘desesperación’ con Ken Francis extendiéndose | Charla de fútbol profesional | NFL en NBC

They don’t give contracts for a QB to play 8 games

I have been saying the same thing. Lamar did this to himself. You don't send your homeboy or your mother to negotiate with billionaires. You get an agent. QBs are the face of the organization, and he wants to keep it real and not cut his hair, stay with that South Florida bad accent and not work on his diction and vocabulary, and no agent. I am a Black man, and I would tell Lamar if I was the owner. You are the fact of my organization. At the end of the day, this is business. Get a decent haircut. I have this person who is going to help you get rid of that horrible South Florida accent. You are going to carry yourself as a leader and the fact of this organization. If Lamar was on defense and after the game, no one was putting a microphone in his face, I wouldn't care. These are the realities that the white owners will not say publicly, and the white radio host and TV host can't talk about it. It's shows like this with black ex NFL players who can be honest about Lamars situation. As the QB, you have to look and play the role of the face of a multi-billion dollar organization. Talking ignorant and wearing your hair like you're in prison ain't going to get billionaire owners to take you seriously. That's just the truth. We can call it racist but again, I am sure a Black owner would tell him the same thing. Clean it up. This is my business, and I am not going to let you F up what I have going on. Bottom line Lamar just K his career by keeping it real dumb.

this is a business not an auction _ plus with inflation and high interest rates these athletes are going to have to start accepting reasonable contracts instead of the outliers _ Jackson worth $210M with $100M guaranteed and some good bonus money for Super Bowl and MVP

So nobody wants Lamar Jackson? A unanimous MVP with a ridiculous winning percentage, and everyone is acting like it's not collusion. All the schillers are acting like it's because he doesn't have an agent. I'm done listening to this Florio guy the master Schiller for agents.

Teams are business. One team being desperate and stupid, aka the Browns, doesn’t mean other teams are obligated to follow suit. The “next man up” payment mindset for QBs has destroyed most teams’ ability to truly compete because they overpay for average talent. Lamar has not shown that he can win big games while he’s cheap. There’s NO way he’s winning big games if he’s getting $200M+ fully guaranteed and teams can’t afford help. He’s priced himself out of any real market.

So he’s a higher risk player with a history of missing games and he wants guaranteed contact?
Nope.

Florio is against black men in general. No matter what it is.

Lamar is a bum

Have agents been reaching out to him?

Lamar can’t beat you with his arm & the NFL does not want every mothers in the stands to dictate who is getting paid what.( that’s an agent job. Can’t go around stepping on people toes ) That is what is happening folks.

Lamar is not a smart guy. You don’t win Super Bowls with stupid QBs. This is just another example of that. He will never, with any team, win a SB.

All the players have a strip to follow. And lamar is following the strip

Lamar is doing amateur hour. Be a professional and make wise business choices. But it's his choice. And he is being stubborn.

Excellent discussion. Perhaps the only thoughtful breakdown of the Lamar situation. I would add a couple of points. Lamar is not the sharpest pencil in the pack (check his Wonderlic score and his graduating GPA from Louisville). He may not have thought about how to go about this contract business; for the past two years , he has put off any meaningful negotiations with the Ravens. Most of his life, he has been celebrated for how good he is: awards in high school, mvps in bowl games Heisman trophy, etc. However, recall he was not selected at the top of the first round; he was plucked by the Ravens at the end of the first and had they not done that, he probably would have been a second rounder. I believe he has an overinflated view of his capabilities. True, he is a very good quarterback. Great? No. Most analysts far better judges of football talent than I rank him in the 6-9 range. He seems very sensitive to perceived slights about his relative value.

A lot of "get off my lawn" energy in this video

As a Ravens and Lamar fan, it pains me to say this. The way he is handling this looks bad. He has lost a lot of money given the way he has handled this. Do the Ravens look to draft a qb in the draft if he isn’t signed by the draft?

He's proving to every NFL owner how big of a pain he is to deal with.
He's branded for life and I think it's freaking hilarious 🤣.
All these QBs want to make elite money and can't even make the playoffs.
He's not an elite QB.
He's won one MVP and lately can't even complete a season.

what people dont realize is that he's making 15-20 million by holding out to give these networks something to talk about every single day in the offseason

Dude bet on himself going into 2022 and lost. He proved he was fragile. Now for the off season he decided to double down, and he is losing again.

He's not worth it. No teams needs a 2/3 season QB who can't win the playoffs.

The linebacker that just signed the biggest deal has NO AGENT AND HE WAS SIGNED BY THE RAVENS. 17:48 of just hate and speculation 😂 its sad

Lamar becomes a cautionary tale for all other future players: do yourself a favor and hire an agent. Paying a commission means you're making money.

Another classic case of bucking the system in professional football & or society. This showing of "ignorance is bliss" with the lead starring role of arrogance will be played by Action Jackson.
