Why let pesky numbers get in the way of a good story?Originally Posted by 86WARD
The stats and measurements just do not seem to back up the common responses when people are asked about Jackson. Not sure why he is such a polarizing player and less proven commodities like Hurts (really only had one good season on a far more loaded team than Jackson has ever played for) are just not called into the same level of debate?

How is $150 million guaranteed for 3 years of Aaron Rodgers somehow less crippling than $200 million for 5 years of Lamar Jackson?
Rodgers is older, far grumpier, doesn't work well with others at this point, and despite the MVP awards didn't really experience much overall team success.
If that contract was feasible for a team...why is basically the same deal over a longer term somehow an anchor that will destroy a franchise?
