QUESTION: Why does #Ravens QB Lamar Jackson suddenly look so hesitant to run the football? Jackson eclipsed 1,000 rushing yards in each of his first two full seasons as Baltimore’s starter and was the most dangerous running QB ever. What changed…?

Uhh he was injured last season In 2024 he capped off a Top 5 QB season of all time w 900 rushing yards

I’ll spell it again for those who just don’t listen or pay attention. HE WAS INJURED!! At least 80% of the season. Dude had a hamstring injury. Try running with a bad hamstring lol. Stop creating these weird narratives about guys

@Lj_era8 is 29 years old, soon to be 30 years old perhaps it's about self-preservation at one point he prolly felt invincible and it was fun but at this point he feels the defenders are getting closer and probably feels he doesn't have to run and his arm is his best tool

Clearly none of you are Ravens fans. This is the dumbest question I’ve ever heard about Lamar. This isn’t Madden btw where you can turn off injuries. No one on this thread is a Ravens fan. And for the moron that said Josh Allen won the MVP.. Look up the stats.

He was literally injured through most last year. Just because someone is on the field doesn't mean that they are 100%. He was injured and still better than 90% of QBs last year

I dk could have something to do with the injuries he had, what a retarded post.

He wants to help his receivers develop. They won't learn how to make plays on the fly if Lamar just takes off for 30 yards every time. He has literally said there have been times where he's seen open run lanes but wants to let the guys downfield work. Cut it tf out

Protecting their asset. Also they pay many other players more combined money to catch and run the ball. He can throw the ball without risking injury

God forbid a QB wants to idk, throw the ball??? He runs, "hes just a RB" he looks to throw, "what changed?" Smh

The retard down syndrome babies for coaches he had Old out of touch. Low IQ corn fed dumbass down syndrome babies who didn't even know how to play call Who didn't even have a game plan in place? They were just letting Lamar Jackson Carry them 🤷🙄😴

Yall wanted him to stop running so much and when he does, you still have a problem.

Its because hes an elite QB. If you watch him throw hes with the best of them. His running only needs to be situational. I love his play making, I just never liked the designed runs for a elite franchise QB who will be in the HOF. His arm talent is elite

Lol he’s looking for open wrs in all those clips lololol

It was the players around him. DeCosta has been awful since Ozzie. The supporting players have been dreadful. If it were just the coaches, then the team would have remained largely the same. There was a huge turnover on the roster. I still think there are some duds on the team.

Because he was injured, but his ability and intellect on the field make it almost impossible to notice until you notice

Because qb's throw it. He learned that he gets paid to be a qb not an overpriced rb.

He's getting older. Smarter, he's a better quarterback today than he was then and he's better than Josh Allen. Once Josh can't rely on his legs he's done, Lamar is smart

Ball is faster than his legs

He was fucking injured you fucking idiot

He realized that rushing for 1k wasnt conducive to winning in the playoffs and being ready for them

SOS......

Last year it was because of injuries. When he is healthy, he is dangerous in both passing and running.

Uuuh because you can get the ball down the field quicker by throwing the damn ball!

He's gotten older and he's not as fast as he used to. They can chase him down. It's not taken away him as a quarterback. He's still dynamic, and he still has speed. But he will never be lamar Jackson years ago when he first came into the league. part of being a human.

He CLEARLY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF INJURIES

Cuz the moment he run more than 5 times a game yall say that’s all he do

He told yall he was injured… even if he didn’t say it. It was clear. Yall badged him so much on running he also wanted to show he can pass

Josh Allen snatched his MVP and his aura, not even trolling his career has been downhill ever since

Probably because his coach told him he is not a running back and should throw like a QB.

He went one year last year, he’s fine

“Scared to run” is actually just him knowing that as soon as he steps up and rolls out someone is getting open down field

Does "Dual threat QB" come to mind? When you have the multidimensional ability to run and throw makes it tough for defenses.

Injuries and they keep changing OC’s

Umm what changed was HE GOT HURT don’t be slow all yo life

Well he had Henry for the last 2 years...who had 1.9k , and 1.5k
