Coach JB & Big Smitty Debate Bleacher Report's 'Lamar Jackson Most Overrated QB' Ranking

Bleacher Report's Controversial Ranking

• 💡 Bleacher Report named Lamar Jackson the most overrated NFL quarterback, claiming his two-time MVP status is "borderline fraudulent" and his credentials don't measure up to other legends.
• 📌 Coach JB initially suggested Dak Prescott is more overrated due to his contract and loaded roster, but acknowledged Lamar has also had a strong supporting cast.

Smitty's Defense of Lamar Jackson

• 🚀 Big Smitty vehemently disagreed with Bleacher Report's assessment, calling the ranking "personal" and highlighting Jackson's consistent winning record since becoming a starter.
• 🏈 He emphasized that NFL players consistently rank Jackson as a top player, suggesting peer judgment is more valid than media opinions.
• 🎯 Smitty argued that if Jackson is considered overrated for not having a Super Bowl, then other MVPs like Josh Allen should also be labeled overrated by the same criteria.

Critiquing Media & Other Overrated QBs

• 💬 Coach JB proposed that Jalen Hurts and Justin Herbert are more overrated, particularly noting Herbert's lack of playoff wins.
• ⚠️ Both hosts criticized the media's tendency to create headlines without deep understanding of the game, suggesting it's for clicks and attention rather than informed analysis.
• 🧠 They discussed the difficulty of defining "overrated" in the current era of quarterbacks, where many players might fit the description.
