The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing this week for another round with “Mr.” Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. The premiere running quarterback in the history of the game and simply one of the greatest all-around players today, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin understands there’s no sense in making comparisons. He is in a class of his own with what he can do, even a guy like Justin Fields doesn’t help you prepare for him.
That is how Tomlin ended his press conference yesterday, offering due deference to Mr. Jackson. Asked if having Justin Fields on the roster in any way helps the Steelers prepare for Jackson, the Steelers head coach offered a short, simple, pithy, “No”.
