Commanders' Charles Omenihu Says Defenses Have 'Figured Out' Lamar Jackson, Not Josh Allen

The Washington pass rusher offered the scouting view on the Speakeasy podcast.

Overview

  • In a Speakeasy podcast interview, Omenihu said the league has a clear plan for Lamar Jackson but still struggles to solve Josh Allen.
  • He described the blueprint for Jackson as a five-man rush that collapses the pocket and closes running lanes while receivers stay covered.
  • Omenihu praised Allen’s size, escape skills, and arm strength, and he pointed to turnovers as Allen’s main flaw.
  • He said Allen would win a Super Bowl first if placed on Baltimore’s roster and cited Derrick Henry, Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, and the Ravens’ defense as the support he would need.
  • Omenihu has faced both quarterbacks after three seasons with the Chiefs and a new deal with Washington, and both Allen and Jackson are still chasing a first Super Bowl with the Bills and Ravens viewed as AFC favorites this season.
