Lamar is a Legend in the regular season
When it comes to to playoffs heβs disappointing
Go ahead black man try to keep the great white hope alive maybe you get paid to
Of course, I'm taking Lamar over Josh any day
You talking about were is the Chip? SAS were was the OC and Wr's at the time he lost the game
So dumb… buffalo has the best defense in takeaways! 2 games buffalo had starting field position in plus territory! 6 games josh allen was sitting out with 8-10 min left in the 4th quarter…and those numbers are with jackson having one more game played then Allen! These π© are super weak with their arguments!
This didnβt age well
Talking bout headlines TALK TO YOUR COWORKERS THEY MAKE THE HEADLINES
Cam look like a mix between Jay z and janelle monae…like the undertaker done made it out the hood. Who told him to dress like this. Lol
Am I the only one notice how Stephen A is constantly using his fingers to his nose is he on cocaine or what
Stephen A is still right idk what ppl talking about
Will RC ever pick against the Steelers ? lol this dude is the most biased Iβve ever seen when it comes to Pittsburgh π€£
So weβre going to dismiss Cam saying Lamar is greater than Mahomes at they same time they give Lamar and excuse because he keeps losing to Mahomes yet Lamar is greater? π€
One thing bout Cam is he really has his own style when it comes to dressing πππ
Josh allen doesnt have a chip either
Until Lamar Jackson get good coaches he will never win a Trophy
How tf is Lamar better than Patrick or Jalen π€
This was a really great debate
BUT WHERES THE CHIP π€£π€£
Don't get amnesia now ππ
This all feels like a fight for a second place. Itβs like Mahomes and everyone else fights for crumbs.
Cam didnβt scold Stephen A Smith. He gave his opinion!
Great debate!!! No interruptions!!
Yβall acting like Allen wasnβt just voted most overrated π€£π€£π€£ and Iβm a dolphins fanfan btw π
βΊ Dear Mr. Smith, Watch What You Say About Lamar Jackson β
You've been spewing specific [financially-based] anti-black propaganda; and you've been vocalizing it at the expense of Lamar Jackson. Let's take a look at [some pertinent factual history of] your recorded voice:
β’ 2023: Lamar Jackson (black QB) signs a large contract [with the Baltimore Ravens]
β’ Week 5, 2023: Lamar Jackson, leads his team to a 3-1 record
β’ ESPN's First Take: ' The Ravens are not getting their money's worth from Lamar Jackson '
β’ 2024: Joe Burrow (non-black QB) signs a large contract [with the Cincinnati Bengals]
β’ Week 5, 2024: Joe Burrow leads his team to a 1-3 record
β’ NFL on ESPN: ' You cannot question Joe Burrow's money . How dare you !'
Exact Quotes:
π" The question is: are the Ravens getting their money's worth from Lamar Jackson. The answer is no "
β Stephen A Smith, Top Pundit (ESPN), First Take | 10/9/23 | watch?v=sJFtlON1zw8
π" You don't get to [talk about a player's income]… Excuse me, it's a team sport [everyone else on the team is horrid], and you're gonna sit up there and bring up dollars (talking about it's a 'salary cap sport')? Stop that, CC! Stop That "

Although there's a lot more for me to say (see the replies – below), just know that β for now β I'm moving you to watch what you say about Lamar Jackson.
Of course, please understand that this movement is for your own good.
Thank You.
The way how you niggas disrespect Lamar Jackson is crazy. But you donβt discredit Josh Allen, Patrick , Joe burrow . Letβs be honest ya hate Lamar cuz heβs a REAL black quarterback
Cam Newton cooked Steven A πππ
who's his history he's not he follows with by by
sorry My girl's our son he is following with me
5:13, but my stealers lost on Christmas day vs the kc wow I made the wrong decision going in last year I done with NFL NBA baseball and hockey so done I can't watch
Bro's talking about dreamers pro click bait when he says destroyed lol
Helloooo, are you there? π€£π€£
Enjoyed the debate for all commentators Great points!!! I feel the show is great but S. Smith, C. Newton, C. Canty and S. Sharpe would take a already great sport talk show to another level of greatness. Mickey Mouse needs to get the contract done… Just my humble opinion.
You can never hold black quarterbacks to the same standard as white quarterbacks. There's two sets of rules for white quarterbacks add black quarterbacks. When cam played the referees allowed the defense to beat the brakes off of him you know what the excuse was the referees said well he's a big guy so we let the defense hit him late hit him below the knees all that. If you look at Tom Brady the wrong way you get a 50-yard penalty same with Peyton Manning and so forth and so on
Stephen A Smith has always always tear it up to the right athlete over a black athlete no matter what. Just like you said Caitlin Clarke was the greatest thing since the basketball ever landed on Earth. Truth be told she's an average player
Funny thing about Stephen A Smith he ain't never played a lick of anything in his life. A cockroach has more athleticism than Stephen A Smith
Just cuz you are a quarterback and you have a championship ring doesn't make you the best quarterback. Look at Trent Dilfer. He has a ring and you going to tell me he's that dude he was that dude when he played he wasn't
11:07 Stephen hit that just as good as Cam
ππππππππππππ
Jackson is tall and can run better than a running back he can throw incredible what team would anyone place him for super bowl win????
Bro' looks like either a Black Willy Wonka, Black Pilgrim or a Black Amish man.
Can we please get women off reporting on men's sports, especially NFL games?
lets all scream it at the same time..1..2..3..
STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE!!!π£οΈπ£οΈπ£οΈ
what are we talking about josh did it with no help? he has help #1 and secondly he hasnt played the toughest games this season.. i will give it to him tho beating chiefs and lions but thatβs it. thats his whole case right there, beating them two teams and lamar already has 2 mvps..sad case
She got that good good
I can't stand Steven Aπ
Cam looks great
I like how Steven A. says "listen" when he needs to change his arguing point while making an arguing point π
