You can’t be serious with this post can you? That video is a joke. Of course he’s fine after tumbling over the jet ski. He barely hit it and then fell into water.

How it’s this big of a deal is beyond me. The worse injury that could come from it is like a bruise that goes away in 2 days from bumping his shin into the jet ski or something. If sports weren’t basically on hold because of COVID it wouldn’t even be a story. Link to post Share on other sites

Currently Russell Wilson is the only qb in the nfl with an active back to back 30 passing TD seasons streak (3 seasons). Plenty of qbs have done this like manning, brees, brady, Rodgers, rivers, romo. All those guys are HOF level guys or living legends. Other notable qbs who never passed for 30 or more TDs in back to back seasons are Andrew luck, Big Ben, Matt Ryan, Matt Stanford, wentz, cousins, and mahomes (I kno injures but he still played in 14 games). Some flukes have happened like Eli Manning but because of that stat and those names I’d bet jackson throws 29TDs or fewer this year. I would also believe his rushing stats will come down as well because the ravens probably won’t be ahead for 95% of every game and the NFL has an offseason to catch up to what they’re were doing and the ravens probably don’t want to get him hurt. However you can’t just make someone that good at running the balls stop. He will still run for a bundle.. 850+ Because of every thing said above and that fact his young offensive weapons should also only be getting better I believe his passing yardage will increase 3800+ His rushing TD numbers are a real toss up. Kind of afraid to guess. Maybe he gets 4 or 14. Link to post Share on other sites

A near cheat code for an NFL offense and a sure cheat code for a fantasy team. I doubt he gets there in most casual leagues, but I'm having a hard time passing him in the later 3rd, especially if I start with 2 RBs and can hit WRs in rounds 4-6.

The real reason the pass TDs are going to regress is because the Ravens had the 32nd most pass attempts in the league and will likely have a similar number this year as well. That just isn't enough volume to sustain 30+ TDs without a really unsustainable TD rate like 9% last season (% of passes which were TDs) Link to post Share on other sites

The thing is he’s not making it past the 3rd , that’s the price you’ll pay for Lamar. I’ve always been adamant about waiting on QB , but man is if fun having Mahomes or LJax on your squad. Just makes fantasy that much more enjoyable , even watching the games themselves. I think this year I may just pull the trigger , in atleast one league ... screw it. It’s a heavy draft price with either one, but your pretty much guaranteeing yourself a top5 QB finish with a decent chance at 1st overall. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Lamar Jackson in the 3rd round? Biggest cheat code in fantasy football. An excellent QB who also posts RB1 numbers. Same reason CMC was so devastating to opponents last year and was by far and away the best PPR player because he posted RB1 AND WR1 numbers. Consider yourself lucky to get LJax in the 2nd round of any competitive league. Link to post Share on other sites
