That Lamar Jackson, he’s somethin’ else, ain’t he? Folks talkin’ ’bout his IQ, his smarts. They say he ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer. Well, I seen him play, and that boy, he got somethin’ special, I tell ya. He run like the wind, that one.
They got these tests, you know, these Wonderlic things. Supposed to see how smart you are. Lamar, he didn’t do so hot on that. Some say he scored lower than the fella cleanin’ the floors. But you ask me, them tests ain’t everything.
Lamar Jackson, he play for the Baltimore Ravens. He one of them quarterbacks, you see. The ones that throw the ball and run like crazy, Lamar is one of them. He’s got that arm strength. Seen him throw it clear across the field, like a rocket, i swear! Seven years ago, people was wonderin’ if he had the arm for the NFL. He sure showed them, huh?
- He run fast, that boy.
- They say 4.34 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
- 21 mph top speed. Faster than my old mule!
Some folks, they say he ain’t accurate. Means he don’t always throw the ball right where it’s supposed to go. I’ve seen it myself some days. But others he is good. He was real good for a bit at the beginning, 10 weeks or something like that. But that boy, he learns. He’s improving, always improving. He used to be bigger, now they say he’s 205 pounds. He is slimmed down. Easier to run, I reckon.
He’s like that Michael Vick fella, ‘member him? Fast and tricky. Lamar, he’s got that same kinda magic. He can run and dodge and weave. Makes them other players look silly, tryin’ to catch him. That boy can sure play, I say!
He played for Louisville before, went to college there. Got himself a degree, they say. Communications, that’s it. He got good grades, too. 3.5 GPA, they call it. He smart in his own way, that one. He finished up in 2017, then went to the big leagues, the NFL combine in 2018 they call it. Then the Ravens picked him at the very end of the first round. Lucky them!
It ain’t easy gettin’ better at throwin’ the ball when you’re already in the big leagues. But Lamar, he’s tryin’. He sometimes misses them easy throws. But you watch. He’ll get it. He’s got that fire in him, you can see it. He be better, he will be accurate. He will throw it right every time. Mark my words.
That Lamar Jackson and that Daniel Jones, they say they different. But they both quarterbacks, ain’t they? Both tryin’ to win. It ain’t just about them tests, them Wonderlic scores. It’s about what’s in your heart, how hard you work. And Lamar, he works hard, I tell ya.
He one of the best dual threat quarterbacks in the whole darn NFL. He can run with it, throw it. That’s a threat both ways. He’s been playin’ for the Ravens for six years now, and he’s only gettin’ better. You just wait and see.
So, they can talk all they want about his IQ and his Wonderlic score. That Lamar Jackson, he’s a winner. He’s got that somethin’ special, and he’s gonna keep on shinin’. You just watch. He gonna keep runnin’ and throwin’ and winnin’. That’s what he does. He’s a football player, and a darn good one at that. I believe that boy’s got the smarts where it counts – on that football field. And that’s all that matters, ain’t it?
Lamar Jackson IQ, it ain’t just about a number on some test. It’s about his heart, his grit, how he plays the game. And that boy, he plays it good. Real good. You just wait and see. He’ll show ’em all. He will show them all he is smart. He is going to win them all over.
