Ravens HC John Harbaugh weighs in on criticism of QB Lamar Jackson by anonymous DC

The Baltimore Ravens have been gifted with plenty of talented players throughout the years, and quarterback Lamar Jackson should be featured near the top of the list. Entering his fifth year, the signal caller has shattered numerous team and league records as well as helped his team emerge victorious from countless games.

On Monday, Mike Sando of The Athletic published an article in which he placed NFL quarterbacks into tiers. When getting to Jackson, one anonymous defensive coordinator said something that many have disagreed with.

“If he has to pass to win the game, they ain’t winning the game. He’s so unique as an athlete and he’s really a good football player, but I don’t (care) if he wins the league MVP 12 times, I don’t think he’ll ever be a 1 as a quarterback. He’ll be a 1 as a football player, but not as a quarterback.”
