Lamar Jackson didn’t enter the NFL to make friends. While the Ravens’ franchise quarterback stopped short of saying he views his quarterback peers as rivals during a Wednesday news conference, Jackson made it clear he’s not close pals with Bills quarterback Josh Allen or other signal callers across the league.

Quarterbacks aren't the end-all, be-all when it comes to competing for NFL championships. More often than not, in fact, signal-callers are only as elite as their supporting cast, especially when it comes to playoff football.

"Goff is coming off a season that saw him post a career-best 111.8 passer rating, which was second-best in the NFL behind Jackson. He completed 72.4% of his passes, including an early-season game during which all 18 of his throws were completed, and logged a career-high 37 touchdown passes.
