Domonique Foxworth arguing with Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo is starting to become must-see television.
As we continue to sit and wait on Lamar Jackson to finally get himself his much-deserved deal, there have been a plethora of debates about the Baltimore Ravens quarterback.
On Friday’s edition of First Take, Chris “Mad Dog” Russo argued that Jackson is way overprotected by NFL fans and media members if you say anything remotely negative about him.
“We all know that Jackson is a great player, he’s fun to watch. Everyone in America knows that. But he’s so hyped because if Jackson plays a great game and his team is winning games, we make him out to be Johnny Unitas. But If you criticize him when he has a bad game, all of a sudden we’re being too critical of him,” Russo said.
Jackson recently got into a Twitter beef with Bernard Pollard shortly after ESPN released its list of the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL. After Jackson didn’t make the list, Ryan Clark came to his defense.
Clark thought Jackson should have been ranked in the top 10, but Pollard didn’t agree with him and all hell broke loose.
