Finally, I feel like the fans are being fed all of these excuses about why he shouldn't get paid, and the fans are buying it.

The Ravens have gone 43-23 since 2019 when Lamar became the starting QB and have been to the playoffs 3 times during that period. I would KILL for our team to have that run during that period of time.

I don't necessarily thing Lamar should get $230 mil guaranteed, but it is utterly ridiculous that "no team" is interested. Meanwhile Aaron Rodgers is old as f*ck, going all mental and doing shrooms in the offseason, and he's about to get traded to the Jets and get a ton of money.
I hear you . . . but he is a undersized running qb that is already missing a lot of games. I feel strongly that he will miss a lot more games and progressively more games due to being and undersized running QB. Not sure he'll make it through a 5 year contact. and if the does he'll miss 3 of those years due to injury.
