Lamar Jackson’s Playoff performance will likely get criticized (for valid reasons), but even in a “bad” game, he did something that’s never been done before. Knowing Lamar’s mentality, he’ll take this as a learning experience going forward and his supporters can be proud that he completed the best throw of his NFL career thus far.

This incredible catch might have earned the recognition as the best play of the Playoffs so far. Deshaun Watson’s memorable OT evasion came in a more clutch moment, but this highlight was genuinely more exciting and improbable, if situation is ignored.
JONNU SMITH. 😱

There were questions about San Francisco entering the Playoffs considering this regime has no Playoff experience, but they passed their first test with flying colors. If they can beat the Seahawks/Packers in the Bay next week, they’ll be Super Bowl bound after picking 2nd overall in the Draft last year. Not a bad come up.
