When you have your mother , an exercise guy, and a rapper doing your negotiations, instead of a professional agent , you’re doing yourself a disservice. You’re right, the offer was more than fair, and according to reports in Baltimore , it’s been pulled.
Mahomes is smart . He has won two super bowls and allowed his team to sign him to a great contract, and still be able to win, much like Brady did. Lamar claims his goal is to win a SB, but his contract demands would shackle any team’s salary cap.
I became disillusioned with Lamar after this years injury, and you could never get an update when he was coming back. Then he doesn’t even show up for the Bengals playoff game to support his team. He claimed he didn’t come because of swelling , but then you watch Mahomes running around and winning a SB on a gimpy , injured ankle. Say what you want about Joe Flacco , but he played a game with a torn MCL. I watched Johnny Unitas play battered and bruised.
So 250 million guaranteed, I’ll pass.
If I were the Ravens , don’t panic and if he sits out the season , let him sit. I wish I could go back in time and see Irsay stick it to John Elway , and let him play in a podunk Yankees farm system town. The Colts would have been better off long ago standing pat to ridiculous demands. They may have forced him the play for the Colts , or get a better package than they got from Denver later.
