Lots of GMs have to be wondering why they didn't pick him. He might not be as unstoppable as he was in college but he's pretty amazing in the NFL too. When he gets few years under his belt and the right players around him, watch out. What was the knock on him again?

WITHOUT A DOUBT !!! I can't be any more happier to have this dude on my team. Such a pleasure to watch every single game. He's only 22, when it's all said and done, he will be top 5 in my biased opinion. Such a unique talent , he can run with the best of them and his passing has improved tremendously.

Still can't wrap my head around how he is playing after he got his butt kicked by Purdue in college.

Yeah but still not prime Vick. I don't actually think he's close. If prime Vick was playing in this league he'd be a suped up Mahomes

In Sunday's 49-13 rout of the winless Cincinnati Bengals, Jackson became the second player in NFL history to produce a perfect passer rating (158.3) in multiple games in a single season. The only other player to do so was Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who had two in 2007.
Jackson became the first quarterback in NFL history to finish a game with a perfect passer rating (minimum 15 attempts), at least 50 yards rushing and one touchdown run, according to the Elias Sports Bureau data.

This guy is amazing. I have no idea how he slipped to 32 in the draft.
What is so scary is they built a system and brought in offensive cordinators to tailor the offense for him. When his teammates and coaches talk about him they know how good he is and talk about him like an all time great they have the pleasure of witnessing grow.
I think you need to protect him with a dominant offensive line, and have a run game because he's not only a generational talent but is great for the NFL as a whole to draw more fans.

I hardly know a lot about the NFL draft but even I could tell it was bizarre he wasn't the #1 pick. He fit the mold of some athletic QBs who did well and killed in college.

Nobody believed he could be a QB. When we drafted him, experts were saying "he's a running back" . Some experts said he should try WR. They tried to make him run the 40 yard dash but he declined because no QBs run the 40. Couldn't be more happy with our decision. And everybody was on Mayfield bandwagon at the time.

He breaks design and schemes defensively. You have to prepare for everything, then they break out the option running attack. The patriots have an elite defense, and could not gameplan for that. Unpredictability. Really genius on harbaughs part.

I have to wonder if anybody is ever going to use the defensive back heavy defense that the Chargers used last year. I know its hard to find 7 defensive backs you want to put on the field, but you have to try at some point right?

Once again the guy is amazing, he's dominating Monday Night Football against the Rams in a blowout right now.
He can be the face of the league like an NBA player, they need to keep pro bowl offensive linemen around him and a dominant run game and the NFL will regain any popularity it's lost in recent years.
I'm a casual NFL fan, but I will tune in for Texans games and Ravens games right now. I guarantee you others will too, especially if the guy wins MVPs and Superbowls.

The only thing that will hold him back is being injury prone

RG3 is the perfect backup to him. Because he's playing like RG his rookie year. Before the injuries. Hopefully Lamar stays healthy.

Yes sir, that's the only thing that can stop him, injuries. I hold my breath every time he runs.
