Joe Banner gets crushed for Lamar Jackson injury tweet that ignores one key detai

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson in Baltimore's Week 14 game vs. the Browns a perfect time for Joe Banner to weigh in on the running quarterback's play style.The former NFL executive and ESPN analyst was how Jackson Lamar Jackson was "the latest QB trying to run a lot to get hurt," adding it's "pretty consistent around the league" and that it should inform future quarterbacks on how to adjust the way they play.Only one problem: Jackson was hurt after Browns linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah hit him low following a 5-yard completion to tight end Mark Andrews:That injury that sent Lamar Jackson to the sideline prayers for action Jackson Tingz n Wingz (@TingznWingz) It's a bad look for Banner, who clearly saw Jackson was hurt on Twitter and a sumed it happened as a result of a run play. He also neglected to explain how injuries toother so-called "running quarterbacks" has become a trend (a narrative that has long been disproven in the NFL).DECOURCY:Lamar Jackson is the latest QB trying to run a lot to get hurt. Its pretty consistent around the league. Should inform future decision making around the league Joe Banner (@JoeBanner13) A simple tweet that Lamar like all the other running QBs have gotten hurt (not an opinion a fact) has brought some of the most ridiculous tweets including a lot of people paid to do Tom Seaver Jersey analysis. Do they not understand that the wear and tear on the QBs is as important as the play Joe Banner (@JoeBanner13) It should be noted that Banner has been vocally critical of Jackson in the past, that he had "deficiencies" that could potentially cause him to fail as an NFL quarterback and that it would be prudent of him to work out with teams as a wide receiver. He has against Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, who also has seen succe s as a running quarterback.Regardle s, Banner refused to back down from his initial stance, calling out anyone on Twitter who correctly noted that Jackson was tackled in the aftermath of completing a throw. He was thusly (and justifiably) hammered on social media.Below are several of the best reactions to Banner:MORE: 17/32 NFL teams have had QBs mi s games with injuries this year. Noted runners Ryan Fitzpatrick, Sam Darnold, and Jameis Winston are on IR right now. Not a lot of evidence to say mobile QBs are more liable to get injured than other guys. Rodger Sherman (@rodger) Aint no way youve been watching that offensive line and came up with this take Daniel Oyefusi (@DanielOyefusi) He was tackled dropping back to pa s, but, yeah, just make your commentary lol. Baltimore Beatdown (@BmoreBeatdown) Ummmm, he was injured throwing. Ryan Mink (@ryanmink) 1. Lamar Jackson got injured ONCE.2. Ru sell Wilson had one of the longest starting streak in NFL History Zimmerphobe (@DeOneAndShawnly) This tweet does not match up with the play in which he got injured.
