Bleacher Report Tags Lamar Jackson as NFL’s Most Overrated QB, Prompting Backlash

The dispute centers on whether a 3-5 postseason mark outweighs two MVP awards.

Overview

  • Bleacher Report’s Alex Kay listed Lamar Jackson as the NFL’s most overrated quarterback on Nov. 11, pointing to a 3-5 playoff record and no Super Bowl appearance.
  • Kay further argued Jackson’s two MVPs are “borderline fraudulent,” contrasting him with other multi-time MVPs who own Super Bowl rings.
  • Sporting News and Heavy circulated the ranking and its rationale, while Ravens Wire criticized the label as erroneous and suggested it was crafted for shock value.
  • Defenders highlighted Jackson’s regular-season résumé, including a 73-27 record as a starter, multiple All-Pro nods and Pro Bowl selections.
  • The discussion comes as Baltimore has won three straight after a 1-5 start with Jackson back from a hamstring injury, and Bleacher Report’s Brent Sobleski noted a 5-0 TD-INT since his return.
