Stephen A. isn't letting the Ravens OFF THE HOOK! + Shannon SEES Purdy CRITICS coming! | First Take 

7:15 ‘Brock Purdys critics can watch him walk on water and say it’s because he couldn’t swim’ Lmao 😂😂😂😂 Yo. That was funny lol I’m using that one forsure

I heard more slander on Purdy after winning than Lamar after losing... that pretty much tells you everything about the bias

Lamar did not play well in the bright lights, but why did they stop running. That's his strength. Thanks Pat, Purdy shined in the bright lights.

Purdy is in the Super bowl and still getting held to a higher stander then Lamar that is crazy

As much as I love Lamar he still has some work to do his defense allowed a Patrick mahomes/Andy Reid offense zero points in the second half the game was right there on a platter for the ravens

When Jeff Saturday said he lived this with Payton Manning.. he silenced Stephen A 😂🤣

Peyton Manning had the same issue. His first AFCC, he threw 23/47, 1TD 4INTs Lamar can still end up with a ring or 2 and multiple SBs even being nervous in the playoffs. He's just going to have to go to the playoffs consistently and have a long career. Shannon's right that Peyton "got it", but he didn't win an AFC championship until his 8th year.

With his talent, he has no excuses. In the biggest of game and the brightest light. You separate the good player from the Great Ones.

I actually agree with SA a little here. Lamar has all the talent, but he needs to be more poised in the playoffs. He looked nervous from the opening snap and looked nothing like what I watched all regular season. His issues are purely mental and I think he will figure it out with more experience. I don't think being "locked in" is the right mindset for Lamar. Just creates unnecessary stress when things start going wrong in the playoffs. He needs to just be himself.

Kelce was taunting all game and never got any calls.

Purdy should be praised, and Lamar should be criticized, but it's the other way around.

And this begins the time where we repeat topics each day with different people saying the same thing with slight variations until the next season

Saturday hit it on the nose. 🎯

Purdy has put himself in a different class than Lamar when it comes to the playoffs (when it really matters). That dude has more poise in his second year than the MVP favorite veteran. Dude can straight ball and feels zero pressure. Lamar folds in the biggest moments.

The Ravens defense played a significant role in Lamar getting MVP. The D showed up in playoffs too but the MVP folded when moment was too big.

Why does Brock Purdy get held to a higher standard than Lamar? No one sees a problem with that they needed Lamar to pass or do anything for that matter to win the game and he couldn’t? Not to mention he’s had more opportunities to do it

Even if purdy did win the sb, ppl still will give him a hard time

Thank you Jeff Saturday!!!! Calling out the horrific play calling! Yes Lamar played bad but he wasn’t in POSITION to play good

I agree with Saturday. Lamar played bad, but we can also give deeper analysis instead of such a broad statement like that. The Ravens are a rush offense not a passing offense which they tried to become in this game, and the coaches never made any adjustments to that throughout the entire game. Say whatever you will about Dan Campbell but at least he stuck to the coaching decisions that got the Lions there. The Ravens did not.

Saturday played football..Stephen A played foosball,Im with Jeff..💯

Jeff Saturday actually knows ball

Ravens relied to much on the MVP. We had the number 1 rushing in the NFL. I’m too mad to talk more this game

Thank you Jeff Saturday!

Brock p is legit. He gotta win sb to silence critics. That's nonsense. Joe borrow ain't win one yet and yall give him his credit. Y'all are ridiculous when it comes to brockp.

Brock shouldn't be bashed if he doesn't win the Superbowl because he is still in his rookie years, while other QBs (both veterans and rookies) get so much credit for winning against him. Why is that? 😅

In his second season, Purdy is in the Super Bowl. The hate is nuts.

To be honest.. as a UGA fan.. Monken did exactly what he had been doing at UGA in big games.. play too safe and overthink your strengths. It’s why we lost to Bama repeatedly in the SEC championship game and Natty.

Shannon keeps saying “for 2 weeks”. Purdy is 21-4 (not counting him getting knocked out of the championship game). Other than that he is 4-0 in the playoffs to Lamar’s 2-4. So how do you define GREAT? If everyone has called Lamar great and completely on another level than Purdy, yet Purdy has already accomplished more than Lamar, what’s the standard? Critics are now asking Purdy to do more than Lamar, Josh Allen, Herbert, Lawrence, Dak have actually done. Lamar has been average since his MVP year, yet everyone wants to call him Great and HOFamer even tho he doesn’t elevate his team in the playoffs. Lamar only threw 1 pass this season when trailing by 8 or more points. So when everyone is asking Purdy to come back from double digits, Lamar never did it this year. That high standard was only for Purdy. Lamar was average all year and had the Best Defense, best rushing attack, top 5 O-line but nobody held that against him the way they held Purdys team against him. Lamar never had to play through adversity this year because his Defense was so good. That’s why he went into that Niner Raven game with 22 Total TDs and 13 turnovers. That’s through 14 games! Purdy had 31 TDs and 6 turnovers going into that game. That’s why the Purdy haters had to put the MVP winner based on that one game because based on the season going into that game, it wasn’t even close.

Jeff Dadurday is rite, we didn't run the ball enough...

Facts Lamar was holding that ball far longer than any other game this season I was screamin run literally had wide open field half of the game

So Lamar can choke like that but Josh gets bashed and compared to dak whos 2-5 in the playoffs and JOSH IS 5-4 … wild

Thank you Jeff 🙏🏽

Lamar Jackson to be a super Star should develop that killer instinct when it comes to finishing those most important games, like Tom Brady, Michael Jordan or Kobe Brian . Lamar has that nice guy mentality.

Why do we always apologize for Lamar? Why is it called hating to say he chokes but nobody cared that we called Peyton a choker until he won his first ring?

Lol😂 Stephen A just wanted to say TB was on my show first 😂 That’s hilarious out of all this conversation

Shannon holds everyone to the SB standard. Until they win one he will have questions. That's a pretty hard line, but at least he is consistent.

Lamar and the Ravens losing made me think of James Harden and Houston Rockets did in that game 7 against the Golden State Warriors instead of Lamar doing what got him there and that’s running the football He tried to he could do what Patrick Mahomes could do and throw the football and it didn’t work

Shannon is right about Purdy ... CAM NEWTON won a MVP and went to a Superbowl but when he loss none of that mattered to people unfortunately even till this day people doubt Cam

The debate is in 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love this analyst matchup

How many times do I have to say it Harb needs to go upstairs. We don't blame the head coach only the OC AND DC oh and Lamar. We blamed Grerg Roman...Now Todd where's the HNIC

Been asking for years, will ask again, "What does John do exactly?" Common answers "if you don't know what he does, you don't know football" No one has been able to say, what John does that's so essential that he needs to occupy that role. With what CV?

Lamar didn’t silence his critics because he hasn’t been to a Super Bowl and his playoff wins/ loss record is pretty abysmal compared to pick number 262

@7:00 McCafee made a good comment which made Shannon make a good and refined reply on criticism of any athlete.

Tom Brady said, the difference is how you perform under pressure. Do you shine like diamond or are dull like coal?

Well like I’ve been saying everyone was on Lamar’s nuts for weeks after he beat the Niners. Now dude gets bounced out and puts up a terrible performance in the game that matters most. Purdy on the other hand put the team on his back and people are trying to discredit him.

I fw Jeff takes he never misses.

MVPURDY GOD BLESSED US WITH THIS LETS GET IT!!!

Purdy being criticized while dragging his team back and winning it to make the Super bowl. Now being told he needs to do it in a Super bowl.......All the while, Lamar continues to flounder in the playoffs and be given excuses by the media and the 'coaching schemes are to blame!' Do people not see the utter hypocrisy and stupidity of this narrative? I should also mention Purdy in his second year and Lamar is in his 6th. Purdy has already done MORE in his career in the playoffs than Lamar(what matters the most as a pro) and he's being criticized while the dude that chokes on the regular is being defended. The sports media lives in upside down world and somehow people are gonna eat this up. Utter nonsense.

If Lamar is the League's MVP then I'm the starting QB for the Browns

priceless face expression on STEPHEN A and SHNNON woodshed moment woooooooooooooooooooooo

Saturday said it perfectly

Every human being on that building ignores Molly 😂😂😂😂

So you're saying Lamar can't pocket pass? But I've been hearing about how good he is as a pocket passer this year?

Stephen A makes great points. ALL the pressure was on Lamar and the Ravens and honestly there was very little pressure on the Chiefs. They already have 2 chips.

I agree w Saturday 100%

Flowers was 30% of the loss. Lamar was 30% and the coach and rest of team 40%

Man he is a Second year player 😂😂

Outside some flashy plays here and there, defense was the only bright spot for the Ravens in that game. Playoff choking with Lamar continues.

All that front runner talk on the Niners really came back hard against the ravens 🤣

Seeing people act surprised by Lamar's poor performance is actually hilarious. The man was what he's always been, a painfully mediocre Passer of the Football. It seemed like everyone had a mass delusion episode after that beat down they gave the Niners. But the reality of the matter is that Lamar had one great game throwing the ball the entire year, which was against Miami. Outside of that he had 3.3k Passing yards, 19 TDs to 7 interceptions and 66% completion. And someway, somehow everybody was talking about him as he was Prime Aaron Rodgers or Dan Marino, lmao.

none of the guys shannon just named/compared brock to ever had the type of szn brock has tho… in there second year

Can’t even bare to watch any more ravens press. I completely agree and it’s hard to do that

I love the way he challenged Unc

Let CMC run the ball 2 times like Gus Edwards in the SB let’s see if Purdy can win the game…. Same energy let’s see

People shouldn't place all the blame on Lamar but he ostensibly performed mediocrely and unable to propel his team to the SB. Mahomes simply played football at a higher tier.

Jeff Saturday said everything right finally someone with a brain

What Saturday said was spot on. Chiefs showed defense that looked favorable for the ravens to pass, and the ravens did so. Chiefs made it a game of Lamar’s arm and ravens receivers vs chiefs secondary

Lamar is just Dak Prescott with mobility and slightly better regular seasons 😂

MVPs show why they're MVPs in the biggest moments. Brock Purdy is about to be robbed of his first MVP.

Pat Macfee versus Shanon Sharpe lol I love this tense energy finally two big ALPHA DAWGS…

I agree with Saturday!

Purdy was more Lamar-like than Lamar. Bizarre. Har-har.

They let us all down

I agree, love my niners but we cannot be down by more than a touchdown before the half. The chiefs are different and they don’t let those type of comebacks slide. Purdys gotta be on point this game

That o line got tested

Chiefs took the gas off. They knew Ravens would mess it up.

Lamar and Dak are basically the same in post season But the tone is different....

That was very MVP-esque....

Wow...oh so yea the version? Cool.

Jeff Saturday actually brought nuance in explaining why lamar and the ravens weren't successful but Stephen and Shannon weren't having it lol. Those two are gonna stay on code and deliver whatever narrative, however incorrect or incomplete it is. Lamar didn't play well sure, but he wasn't put in position to play his best either. Despite being forced to throw he still made throws that would've changed the game but were negated due to other factors. Zay fumbles near the goal line and the pick to likely was a clear and obvious pass interference. Not to mention another miss PI call that likely got grabbed.

If this was Josh Allen the narrative would be different

Tom Brady shouldn’t have never said “Your Next” to Lamar because it changed his whole mindset as a player.

I'm with Jeff on this one....

It's not all Lamar Jackson's fault. He needs more offensive weapons. If it wasn't for their defense, the Ravens would not have been the #1 seed in the AFC playoffs.

How he choked when y'all bosses wanted KC and Taylor Swift bowl?

After the Ravens first possession I had the uneasy feeling that Lamar was as uncomfortable as he and the team was against the Titans in 2020. The rain is NEVER a good sign for Lamar to me.

Purdy is a good qb but he is surrounded by multiple playmakers and it's okay to give those playmakers some credit. They make a qb's life easier.

It's not Lamar's fault. Monken sucked the game plan up.

Lemme share this via my HS Football Coach, "It's Hard To Lose When You Know How To Win!"

Purdy is the REAL MVP this year!

Lamar didn’t play the best but you absolutely can not blame him for the loss. Coaching staff deserves all the heat for that loss. Play calling and gameplan was absolutely awful.

It's crazy how the sports media is such a big Lamar Jackson apologist. Compare the raking over the coals that Josh Allen got last week after his loss.

SAS checking his 📲 cell in the middle of the take 😂😂😂 pure ghetto 😂

what Brock Purdy did is what Lamar Jackson should of done vs Chiefs

The critics just talk to talk, everybody was saying mahomes was one and done in the playoffs. They just do it for the views, give Purdy his respect.

KC had 6 DBs but they were blitzing almost half the time. They crowded the line almost every play even when they dropped back in coverage.

Bad coaching made them lose not just Lamar💯it’s more on the coaches 💯

All you Brock Purdy haters need to realize that he is him. The last pick and he is taking us to the big dance on a $860k salary. Your multi million dollars elite QB will be watching from home. Not to mention coming back from a possible career ending injury. Win or lose. I hope for a win. Brock got my seven year old son into becoming a football fan.

The defense played good. Offense layer a big hass egg
