1. You stop him the same way you stop ANY QB...pressure and hits on the QB

Nov 2019

The best examples of this?
New York Giants versus Tom Brady in Super Bowls.
Watch the 1985 Bears dominate Joe Theisman or Phil Simms or Joe Montana that year...or the Seahawks against Peyton Manning, the 2000 Ravens, history is rife with examples of how hitting ANY QB repeatedly gets the,m

The next best examples (for dealing with mobile QBs)?
Whatever was successful against Bobby Douglas, Fran Tarkenton, Michael Vick and Randall Cunningham...keep them in a collapsing pocket, force them to constantly make the correct reads and be patient...give up 6 yards but not 16 yards trying to be a hero. Do your job and depend on the other 10 men to do theirs.

If Bellicheck faces him again this year, I will bet the "way to stop Lamar" will be seen in the flesh...and if not, he'll lead the Ravens to another title!

Spot on -- I think we'll be seeing more QBs like Jackson and Murray Auggie Nov 2019 #7

If there is 1 defense that can stop him I think it is the 49ers JonLP24 Nov 2019 #8

The Refs allow questionable hits on them. At some point the rules will change, Blue_true Dec 2019 #14

at some point they must be considered to be running backs rampartc Dec 2019 #15

Your point is well taken. Richard Sherman made that same point yesterday. Blue_true Dec 2019 #19

Defenses will likely start setting up the edge linebackers to spy on him, Blue_true Dec 2019 #11

I think the answer is a little paradoxical ... Auggie Dec 2019 #17
