Lamar Jackson or Goff? (1 Viewer)

Every ranking has Jackson top 3 and Goff close to top ten. Jackson's two not great games have both been on the road. Marquis Brown is probably not going to play. 

Goff has been horrific. The offensive line is a big reason for this. However, Goff is playing against Atlanta which shouldn't pose much of a threat to the Rams line. Arizona had no problem and their line is even worse. This feels like it could be a 56 to 50 type of game. It feels like a major get right game for the Rams. This also feels like it might be a floor game for Jackson on the road. 

Most people will say I am crazy for thinking about benching Jackson for Goff based on what they have seen. I feel like this is a situation where none of the "experts" are gonna go out on a limb and rank Goff higher even though it may be the right choice. 

 
That Jackson will not have Marquise Brown means the game plan might rely even more on the run. That is upside that unmatched by any other QB. I certainly think the Rams are prime for a bounceback against the Rams and I think you'd like to play Goff at least reading your post. Atlanta has allowed the 2nd most points to QBs on the season and will play well at home. I guess I would consider the rest of your lineup first. I guess if you need a 'BOOM' play or higher upside play and depending on league scoring, I would lean Jackson still. 200 yards passing and 100 yds. rushing is still greater than a 300-yard passing outing, and assuming rushing TDs are 6 pts. and passing TDs 4 pts. The over/under for Rams/Falcons is 54 (Rams favored) and the over/under for Seattle/Ravens is 51 (Seahawks favored) so both projected to be high scoring. Feel like you can't go wrong either way to be honest.

Jacksons ceiling is very high every week in large part do to his running ability. I wouldn't bench him for Goff even with an apparent soft opponent.

Baltimore has utilized the RPO more the last 2 weeks. I'd stick with my stud.

see my post please

 
I don't think a matchup exists where I'd play Goff over Jackson right now. If Goff were playing Miami, and Jackson were playing New England, I'd still probably go Jackson.
