The Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson is excelling at being one of the best players in the NFL. 25-year-old Jackson has played four seasons with the Ravens and has led his team to the playoffs three times from 2018 to 2020. Jackson’s best performance came in 2019, for which he won an NFL MVP award.

Even after giving back-to-back record-breaking performances, he faces backlash from some people who don’t believe in him. In a similar way, former Baltimore Ravens safety Bernard Pollard was trash talking on Twitter about Lamar Jackson on Wednesday night. Jackson is most active on Twitter, saw the tweets by Pollard, and gave him some hard-hitting replies.
It all began when ESPN’s Ryan Clark tweeted and wrote he believed Jackson should be in the top 10 list. Pollard, replied to Clark, stating the Ravens QB to be the top 10 talent rather than a top 10 quarterback.
It’s a lot that can be said. He’s def a Top 10 talent, but as for a Top 10 QB I don’t see it. I believe he should get paid by the #Ravens and should get TOP dollar!

Later a user said Jackson’s game will improve if Ravens’ bring in a good WR. Pollard, again picking on the QB, said that no big WR wants to play with LJ.
No TOP Wr will ever come there while LJ is there. Plenty of WRs have been available to get in the off-season while LJ has been starting, but nobody wants to go. They give him the respect, but they don’t want to play with him. LJ is good but he’s not able to make the throws.

Now, this is where Jackson came and said Pollard only won a Super Bowl title in 2013 because of Ravens legends Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.
You been cappin since I been playing for the ravens I never heard of you tbh my boy you got your Super Bowl cause of ray Lewis and Ed Reed 🤣🤣 that year
— Lamar Jackson (@Lj_era8) July 14, 2022
Pollard responded by saying that he doesn’t think Lamar Jackson will ever win a Super Bowl title.
Lamar Jackson kept winning the argument against Bernard Pollard
Then there were a series of tweets that kept coming from both sides.

Recently, ESPN released a top 10 list of QBs, which did not include Jackson. Although the one-time NFL MVP was given an honorary mention by them. Jackson is a terrific passer and runner, and he brought Ravens back into the game after qualifying for the playoffs in 2018.

Pollard played for Ravens and was a part of the 2013 Super Bowl-winning team who defeated Colin Kaepernick’s San Francisco 49ers by 34-31. He has been one of the big hitters in the league and is responsible for Brady’s torn ACL in 2008.
