Lamar Jackson’s KRYPTONITE + Taylor Lewan talks Russell Wilson 🍿 | Get Up

and and in that sit is he is Patrick Mahomes are the Kansas City Chiefs Lamar's Kryptonite pick a quarterback and pick a team he's theirs too I I I think the reason it comes up with Lamar is because Lamar is the closest thing to him in individual accolades right Josh Allen hasn't won MVPs Joe burrow who actually beat him in the AFC Championship hasn't won MVPs and so we're waiting for Lamar Jackson to take that next step and we've said it on this show a million times you call Lamar Jackson call Malone but to every Carl Malone there was also a Patrick Yan right to every Patrick Yuan there was also a Charles Barkley and those are the Josh Allen those are the Lamar Jackson when you play against the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes what Lamar Jackson has to focus on on is on just being him his best self against Patrick Mahomes his best self completes this pass to Isaiah likeley his best self completes that pass to Z flowers it's not about going out and competing against the quarterback of the other team it's being the MVP you it's being the game changer you when you most need it look Lamar Jackson is one of the greatest players that we have ever seen that's not an exaggeration however if you're going to use the term Kryptonite I guess I would make the question this way Dan against anybody else does he complete that pass to likely at the end of the game does he complete that pass to Z flowers is there just something I would think so I think Lamar is sitting there once he's going to watch this let's let's have an honest conversation okay number one I think the Kryptonite is Steve Spagnola and the chief's defense I don't think it's Patrick Mahomes that defense in the plan that they use against Lamar is always fantastic Dan Z flowers is so open the end of that game I totally agree not the defense and that's why we have to be fair in this moment to like every other quarterback if th if this was Monday morning and Dak missed those throws we would be crushing correct Prescott if Jaylen Herz missed those throws we'd be crushing them if Josh Allen missed those throws we'd be crushing him Lamar was amazing but he missed those two throws and for a guy that is as highly Ed and is highly accomplished in a two-time MVP it's an inexcusable Miss to have back to back I love Lamar I've championed Lamar he was amazing he cannot have those M throws and he can't have them against Patrick you're not going to beat Patrick and the Chiefs unless you play darn near perfect Lamar played like a a minus game he needed an A or A+ he he he played an a game might say until the final three plays but at the end of the day the final three plays are the ones that make the difference and we'll see if they're able to recover from that that's I look their season is still going to be outstanding but we've made the point Kansas City looks like they were I don't even know if they were the best team last year they just were the ones that figured out a way to win at the end now at least in the early going they look like the best team yeah I mean it's one game and look and they're also a toenail and a two-point conversion away from being 0 and one right so like that's not I mean but yes they they look like a team that went out and solved whatever problems they may have had on offense last year the Ravens look like a team that has a lot to still figure out because of the losses they suffered on both sides of the ball let's just look at 15 here so Sydney can we roll a first here's Xavier worthy okay I could just watch this I could just put this on a loop for two hours this morning and have the highest rated show ever but here's my this this is the we do this too much to Patrick that's a perfect throw that might be a touchdown we do this too much we've gone 35 minutes Patrick was phenomenal last night and we've talked about everybody but him that's a Dro touchdown by Juju Smith Shuster so those are two throws that I sit there and go likely touch Downs that aren't this is a sack on third down that's not a sack because he's Patrick and there's not a ton of guys that make these plays and we just take them for granted that's 35 yards on the Rope to from Hall of Famer to Hall of Famer this is a potential tackle for loss that he turns into a 25 yard gain toward the middle of the field I mean I thought Patrick was Sensational and it gets overshadowed a little bit because of the controversy at the end of the game this is another opportunity where he scrambles away and gets that ball out for a completion so you know my big takeaway with Patrick was like man he threw it so well it's a huge play in the game 33 seems boring to me Dan what seems boring to me stop it dude we've only we've only seen it for like the last six years bro we see it all the time he's the best player in the league I mean he best player in the league it goes without saying at this point I think Patrick will be fine if with the lack of attention as long as we're still talking about him in the middle of February like we are year he's the best player in the league he's the not just that he's the best player we've ever seen he may not be the greatest yet it's too early to crown him that say every single play that we just showed a difference between bestest Brady is the greatest player ever he played till he was 45 he accomplished more than infinitely more than Patrick Mahomes had the opportunity to Patrick Mahomes is 29 years old but every single one of these plays if anyone else made them we would lead the show with them but Taylor we get we we he LS us to sleep because he makes it look so easy and he does it every day yeah he does it flawless L it's one of the things that we all love Patrick Mahomes about when he first came in the league I remember we were playing the Chiefs in the fourth preseason game when there was a fourth preseason game and he was not starting he comes out plays that entire game in fourth pron game of starters you kind of sit back you got the seeds in your mouth and all that this kid was throwing bombs like yo who the hell is this guy what the hell is going on here now we're seeing this and it's gotten it's he's so good like AR you made a joke about it but people are legit kind of bored they're bored of it which I think the Chiefs are perfectly fine with well think about their offense now too I and we finally got the opportunity to see Xavier worthy and I don't want to like miss it wasn't like Xavier worthy went out and was Steve Smith type of thing you know he had the reverse for a touchdown but that's just going to create more issues for defenses he gets the broken coverage lack of communication but that wasn't by accident either you know it was because of Matt naggie and Andy Reid and the formation and the the way that they manipulated I mean listen this play is executed well Taylor you know this if you execute that play well as an offense you're going to get 25 yards he scores from a th yards away and he wasn't even remotely touched so we we've seen Rashid Rashid R is going to have 120 see like that's what's to me that's what's most important this is something that they learned toward the end of last season how do we get rasid rice the ball in positions where we can get run after the catch think about the first play of the second half they go right to him in the seam he catches the ball he makes Kyle Hamilton miss you have a big play there's another season of Ryan Clark explaining his tweets you usually on Mondays this year it'll be on Fridays and we couldn't be more excited about it all right here we go tweet number one of the Season dang got darn Kevin Durant toe cost the Ravens the game you know what they say about people with big feet RZ explain that tweet you remember Kevin Durant right could have changed the whole Narrative of his life against the Milwaukee Bucks if he didn't wear a size 27 Sho the same thing for Isaiah likely here right so we going to see Kevin Durant you're playing against Milwaukee Kyrie not there you're trying to find a way to win oh it's PJ Tucker my former college teammate oh the step back oh the spin I'mma hit it oh it's game time the narrative has changed I didn't go to Golden State to win a championship I can win a championship by myself I got a new Barber I'm going get a fresh haircut God dang it my feet are too big the same exact thing happened to Isaiah Isaiah likely his feet so big it got him saying stupid stuff in the postgame press conference talking about this is going to make it hard for the Kansas City Chiefs in the playoffs no it's not Isaiah y'all wasn't supposed to be there anyway but if he had on Barry Sanders instead of Dion Sanders cleats he probably could have scored a touchdown oh it was just that close man come on KD ah what do I sense that wherever he's watching from Rex Ryan was enjoying that one okay oh next here's the next tweet we want you to explain skinny Lamar is quicker than a hiccup ain't he explain that Denny Lamar was getting loose Lamar had got a little chunky right he was down in South Florida he was eating Jamaican food oxtails curry chicken you know he was doing a little too much he was getting the rice and peas but this summer he went out there and he got sleep and skinny Lamar was giving them boys that work he was even running folks over greeny skinny Lamar is the Lamar we saw at Louisville that would hop over people's children the Lamar we saw at Louisville that would spin against Florida State like a top and scor touchdowns the problem is we don't want to see Lamar run that damn much Todd monin figure it out you got Derk Henry that right now is two Lamar Jackson based on size skinny Lamar did a great job last night of using his legs but if they have to do that the entire season it is not sustainable to beat a team like he had almost 400 yards of total offense last night skinny Lamar dat and then my favorite player of the game is the one you mention next give me the Tweet skinny Worthy is outer worldly explain that tweet like when when you look at somebody that's this fast fast but this smooth right when Tyreek Hill gets the football you can see how fast those little legs are moving and it looks like it's in hypers speed look how smooth this is dude is not even breathing hard as he's running past grown men with multiple children and some with multiple wives this is not he's not still at Texas just playing around with his homeboys with nil money from Matthew M these are grown folks and look at this Grown Folk that's one Grown Folk that missed that's this dude so grown he don't even wear gloves you got to be a bad dude to not wear gloves and he don't even touch him you know what I want to watch Players Club and my favorite part of the movie was Wendy asked did you at least pinch the BFF nobody pinched Xavier wordy last night cuz he was too dang fast nobody May by the way Saturday is going to love that play cuz there's like three pancakes everything about that touchdown Which once again was the first career touch for Xavier worthy in the NFL oh tweets are back and better than oh wait a minute I've got sneaky huge news Ryan for your Pittsburgh Steelers Russell Wilson was limited in practice yesterday after reporting tightness in the calf that he injured during training camp the Steelers will visit the Falcons this Sunday Dan Graziano will be there in Atlanta for that Dan we know that the calf was something that bothered Russell early in the training camp now all of a sudden here we are two days before the season what does this mean same calf so that's a problem look Limited in practice can mean a number of things it can mean he felt a soreness in the calf and they held him out of practice it doesn't seem like that's what it means in this case he was out there for walkth through and he was out there for individuals and he was first team in the walkth through and then when the team period of practice started it was Justin Fields with the ones and Russell wasn't there came out and watched the end of practice with a trainer so something happened in practice and they will do test on it we'll know more today uh it's entirely possible entirely possible that Russell Wilson has to miss this game with this injury and Justin Fields gets the start listen if Russell doesn't play this is the best opportunity Justin Fields is ever going to have in his career yep it's the opportunity that many of us have been clamoring for it's I think it's the best opportunity for Pittsburgh to be a competitive football team this year it's not the pre-season it's when it matters now and and Justin's finally got a A Team around him that can give him the opportunity it's not going to be perfect Arthur Smith has the chance to kind of reinvent this offense with the quarterback designed run a little bit like we saw with Lamar Jackson it's a phenomenal opportunity for him if Russell can't go if Russell can go it gives me great concern because he doesn't move that great right now anyway and I think this defense in Atlanta is going to be much better than people expect yeah I I I really think that I'm not a big guy on takes I'm not so far removed from the NFL where I feel comfortable coming at my boys I will say Russell Wilson could care less like if you got the calf I think you're cooked brother I think I think that's done Justin Fields is the guy that should be leading the Steelers I think Arthur Smith being able to use guys that can you know run around a little bit Justin Fields has more Mobility now that you were just saying he's going to do a great job establishing the play action he's going to put that kid in a position to be successful I think if Justin Fields gets this job we're looking at a situation where he doesn't look B well here's the thing I think that Dan has thought that so many people have thought that all through this entire off season and yet the only person whose opinion matters and quite frankly the one who knows much more about this than anyone else is your old coach Mike to so he obviously is seeing stuff that we're not seeing yeah I think for I think for him it was the comfort in the Floor of Russell Wilson it was that Russell Wilson understood the offense he was going to be able to give the football and delegate the ball in the places that it needs to go in order for this offense to run I don't think it was ever him believing that they would be more explosive with Russell Wilson but Dan kept saying the word opportunity now we need to see Justin PHS turn into luck which is when preparation meets opportunity if Justin Phils gets this opportunity to get to to get behind this offensive line to get into Arthur Smith Smith's offense he has to take control of this job [Music]
