I do need to talk about Lamar Jackson one more time just because of all the people in the past that didn't give him love and he wasn't quarterback enough.

I'm going to be somebody that rides with how great he's been, who is kind of the brains behind all this was, you know, his mom just kudos to her, seeing her vision and Lamar seeing the vision to where it is now and he's literally changed the game forever.

Now, teams won't even look at you if you can't move, which is crazy, right?

It's just so awesome for him to get his flowers.

I hope he keeps getting his flowers.

I know a lot of the media is starting to finally come around.

Obviously, people are going to be like, oh, show me in the postseason and you know, he's still only in his seventh year every time he touches the football, he is must watch TV.

But just the intelligent, he's shown in his progression on the field off the field at the quarterback position.

I just love being his teammate.

He, he's, he's one of the dudes, bro, you know, sometimes quarterbacks they can be a little, you know, not standoffish.

Right.

It's just different, right?

But he's hanging out with us cracking jokes.

I love that about LJ and I appreciate it and I just love seeing that as a, as a, a guy saying that that's my quarterback, man.

I, I love that the thing I love about Lamar the most.

He's won two mvps and you see some people win mvps and they have what people call flaws and you just see him, like continue to have the same thing.

Lamar is fixing something different every year, like you said, he's changed the game forever and he did it his way and he's doing it his way.

It's not this overly flashy guy.

He always gives credit to his teammates.

You don't see him, me, me, me, you know, with these immaculate celebrations, he go celebrate like anybody else, he get back to the sideline is back to work.

Yeah, he's growing at the poise.

The poise is at the quarterback position is key.

Um, and his poise is just gotten better and better and better and it's awesome to watch.
