Yahoo Sports NFL on Lamar Jackson
From the article
He went 0 for 5 against those quarterbacks when it counted most. Or it may be that Jackson isn't quite as good as he so often seems, at least in crunch time.
STACKED’s take
Jackson's 0-for-5 playoff record vs. elite QBs raises questions about crunch-time performance.
Ron Jaworski examines why Harbaugh did not win a ring or reach a Super Bowl with Lamar Jackson, noting Jackson went 0 for 5 against elite quarterbacks (Philip Rivers, Tom Brady, Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes) in crunch time playoff situations. Jaworski raises the possibility that Jackson isn't quite as good as he often seems, at least in crunch time, or that Harbaugh and his coaches did not maximize Jackson's skills. In the 2023 AFC Championship Game vs. Kansas City, the Chiefs showed a heavy front and dared the Ravens to beat them through the pass; the Ravens complied and Jackson was unable to execute, raising the question of whether it was Harbaugh's play-calling or Jackson's inability to exploit the defense.
