Josh Allen is leading his team to the fourth game of the season with an incredible 3-0 trail, but LeBron James still isn’t convinced. Baltimore’s 1-2 score screams the possibility that they might not win this game.

However, the retired Lakers pro would like to bet against all the odds and support the Ravens instead. You might think that he probably has a personal beef with Josh Allen, but that can’t be further away from the truth.

The NBA legend has a lot of love and respect for the Buffalo Bills QB, but he thinks Lamar Jackson will hand them their first loss of the season.

“Josh Allen is one of my favorite players to watch play the game of football. His athleticism, his arm strength, his reads, his quick twitch. The boy’s a stud,” said James, before quickly changing his stance. “But I also think that Baltimore keeps it going. Baltimore had a hell of a win last weekend in Dallas. They got it going. They stuck with the run. Lamar Jackson did what he [does].”

LeBron James seems to be a fan of Josh Allen. How can he not be after the Buffalo Bills are leading with such a proud trail? However, the Ravens’ quarterback did a great job of handing an epic loss to the Cowboys in their home game.

And not just the NBA veteran, but Allen himself is an admirer of Lamar Jackson’s.

Josh Allen has something to say about Lamar Jackson

Despite the confidence that James seems to have in Lamar Jackson, his team is not doing as good. We already know the 1-2 trail they are carrying. But if they lose to the Bills, Ravens’ fans may lose all the hope.

Well, before that happens, Allen has already put in his review about the Ravens QB and it looks good. Coach McDermott and Josh Allen had nothing but praise for him, and the latter even called him a “special” player.

He also added, “Love watching him play because every play is never dead with him.” Although the two won’t play on the gridiron at the same time, he still thinks highly of him ahead of their game.

It is refreshing to see such sportsmanship in the NFL even though two QBs are bound to get compared against each other.
