00:00And when you talk quarterback success out of any of the 14 QBs that will play in the NFL playoffs

00:06One guy rises above the rest. That is Patrick Mahomes. Look at the record

00:1115 and

00:133

00:1515 and 3 those three losses by the way twice in the AFC

00:19Championship once in a Super Bowl two of the three losses

00:24Against the legendary Tom Brady Josh Allen is 5 and 5

00:27He has never played in a Super Bowl Lamar Jackson a lot of questions to be answered and narratives to turn around

00:34Here in this postseason 2 & 4 Sam

00:38Darnold has never played in a playoff game Jalen Hurts is 2 & 3

00:42But at least owns a conference championship a couple of years ago those decisions made again by our producer

00:49Extraordinaire the five quarterbacks. He feels are under the most pressure

00:54Entering this postseason the greatest of all times or that idea the conversation for Mahomes is why he is always

01:02Under pressure. So as we look at that crop of five the RS buy or sell

01:07Lamar Jackson is the quarterback facing the most pressure this postseason. Oh

01:12Absolutely, bye. There's no doubt about it

01:14When you look at that list of who's under pressure if they lose everything is gonna come down on them

01:19Why because they're great football players if I equate it to my Eagles fandom over the years Donovan

01:23I've actually won a lot of big football games

01:25But the biggest football games and the moments you needed him to win and step up in moments

01:29You saw that he wasn't able to get the job done and maybe an unfair label on McNabb

01:33Which how good he was during his time for the Eagles the same thing can be said here about Lamar Jackson

01:37To an nth degree because Donovan now was never the MVP of the NFL got close a couple times

01:42Lamar Jackson is a multiple-time MVP and just might win another this year

01:46So you're saying if I'm gonna have a three-time?

01:48MVP that can't even get to a Super Bowl and every time you get to the playoffs

01:53It always falls on him because when's the last time cuz let's just say the Super Bowl with the Eagles where they went up against

01:58Kansas City, right? You didn't look at that game and say well Jalen Hurts boy in the biggest moments

02:01He was really bad understand

02:02He fumbled in that game, but he was toe-to-toe with Mahomes where when that game was over

02:06You didn't say boy if we had a better quarterback or a better quarterback play that would have been handled

02:10We've been saying that about Lamar Jackson in the playoffs and it's not unfair to say watch those football games

02:16And even last you want to take it out and say maybe it was more of a coaching thing than him

02:19He threw multiple bad plays ending up at interceptions down the stretch on footballs

02:24You just can't throw now do we blame him for Zane Flowers fumbling on the goal line?

02:27Which could have changed the trajectory of that football game? No, we don't and rightfully so he shouldn't be charged for that

02:33But when you're the quarterback you get the accolades and maybe when you do lose some of those accolades don't go your way like well

02:39He just lost that game. You need him that clean football and get to a Super Bowl and perform

02:43Well, so for me buying that notion by far, it's Lamar Jackson. There's not even a close second to me Ben
