I will say that I see no scenario where Lamar is still playing when he is 37 years old. I think his career will burn bright while he's under the age of 30, though. Thinking Cam Newton.

Yep. Ravens using his athleticism to their strongest advantage right now, but it will do him no favors in attempting a long career.

Wait for the injuries to start piling up. Unless he drastically changes his style of play, it’ll be a short career.

If Lamar chooses not to be a student of the game just as Cam has not chosen to be then he will eventually be like Cam as well with many others(Vick, V Young,RGIII,Kapernick etc.....) still doing the "if the hot read is not there just take off") routine. Cam got majorly exposed in the SB by Wade. Wade figured out this kid can't read a defense and manipulate(audible/adjust). Cam has not been the same since and he is smoke screening his inability to go the next level of QBing with injuries along the way as excuses why his play has not been good. Cam's confidence is shot IMHO. If Cam were to humble himself and become a true student of the game and worry less about his post game fashion show that borders on if not outright "transvestite cravings" he will be a much better QB. Cam was successful early because many teams had not played against him and those that did were lower tier teams.
Lamar is a heckuva backyard QB no doubt, but as some of you said earlier it only goes so far.:shrug:
In fairness to Vick, Vick said he did not become a real NFL QB until Reid got a hold of him.
