QB Lamar Jackson, BAL (10 Viewers)

[Football Jones]

Is this what happens when an athletic QB loses the 5% edge he's got on everybody? Maybe LJ is banged up, but this is the risk in FF with running QBs who get a lot of their points on the ground. It eventually goes away.

You don't have to be Nostradamus to know Josh Allen will suffer the same fate and probably much sooner than people think. He's easily the most overrated passer in the league, although, his OC doesn't help.

Something is off with Lamar...it's like Austin Powers when he loses his mojo...Lamar usually has this air where it feels something big is gonna happen at any moment...it just doesn't feel like that right now.

He had two TDs taken off the board. The turnovers are bad but I don't think the sky is falling as much as people are acting.

Apparently you have not been starting Lamar in fantasy the last 3 weeks.

I haven't but I've had him since he was a rookie so I've seen the ups and downs. I think he'll be alright.

I was at the top of the standings week 9. He has crushed me. I’ll be lucky to make the playoffs. With Heberts schedule and loss of Alt, I’m in trouble.

Is there another example of such a prolific QB that so many people are dying to pounce on after having a rough stretch?

Peyton Manning in Denver is about the only one I can recall. There were people who legit believed Brock Osweiler was better.

Yeah? Was that before he the first season he played after signing with them?

It is possible he's working through an injury

Have no choice but to start him in Dynasty SuperFlex. I have Lamar, Goff and Shough…unless Purdy gets hurt again and I can start Mac Jones.
I need the rest of my team to carry me. And I guess it’s good that both Baltimore and Detroit will be fighting for their playoff lives so will hopefully ramp up the scoring.

A boy can dream.

I was thinking when he was benched in 2015. He of course was un-benched several weeks later, and won the Super Bowl, albeit more by just managing the game than anything else, but they probably don't win without going back to him.

I will say with Lamar, that if Likely doesn't fumble, and Flowers isn't called for the bogus OPI, he finishes with 15-20 points depending on scoring system, so like, it sucked, but it took a lot of flukiness to suck that much. He's playing as badly as he has since his rookie season, but he's also had some awful luck that could have fixed some things.
