Watch this guy outperform Brady, since I traded for him two weeks ago.
I would love to see him have a great passing day. Last week wasn’t bad, but I want to see him throw a few TDs.I’m putting him in in all four leagues. Over Rodgers in two of them. I may swap him out for Winston in one league but for now, it’s the Lamar show.
Throw 2, run 1 inI would love to see him have a great passing day. Last week wasn’t bad, but I want to see him throw a few TDs.
I am in same boat but 4pt passing. I have flipped flopped several times and still don't know what I will do. I need a high floor and Jackson offers just that with his running. Road Ben in Denver scares me....i am leaning Lamar because of that but Ben still in there at the moment. GodspeedSuch a juicy matchup today.
Would y’all start Jackson or Ben in a 6 pt passing league? Need a high ceiling after going against Amari Cooper.
I'm so tempted.Such a juicy matchup today.

Same predicament. Also going against Ben in an elimination game that would knock me out of the playoffs. So may roll Lamar and hope road Ben shows up.I am in same boat but 4pt passing.

I have these two as well.I'm so tempted.
It's either Lamar or R. Wilson.
Fortunate for you, my hopes are usually dashed.My hope is they both play well and then the decision was moot.
I'm rolling with Lamar over Ben and Philip in one league and Lamar over Wentz and Watson in another. Crazy, perhaps, perhaps not.I have both players and last week I went back and forth forever. I took the ball out of Ben's hands a couple years ago in the playoffs and it cost me a "ship" I rolled with Big Ben last week and for the 1st half I was not in a good mood at all, however, Ben pulled it out and outscored Lamar. I did not need a high floor and made what I considered the safer pick. Today my division is on the line and most likely clinching a bye in the playoffs after Thursday's games I'm in the same boat not needing a high floor ironically playing the same team as before in the playoffs where I benched Ben for Rivers in the playoff game. I lost that game by less than . 5 points by getting cute. I'm rolling with Ben based off the weapons he has at his disposal and I think the game in Denver could be a higher scoring game. I also see the Ravens and Raiders game and think both teams want to win this game on the ground or short passing game and my gut says this could be a lower scoring game that said my feeling is that Ben and Lamar will be close and when it's like that I go with the guy with the bigger weapons. Lamar is going to have that huge game at some point this season and this could be the week tough call but I'll go with Ben's arm over Lamar's legs. Good Luck in your decision. I'm going to check what Vegas thinks just to be curious sometimes that helps me make decisions based on what Vegas thinks on the over/under. Like to know what Vegas thinks on the game script not always correct but another tool to help make calls between players.
A lot less is still 15-20 rushes. Plus, it's OAK, what a time to shine.Going over Phillip as well. A bit worried they will have him run a lot less but want to roll the dice.
Yeah. Perfect start for a QB, almost too perfectA lot less is still 15-20 rushes. Plus, it's OAK, what a time to shine.

I think 40 yards rushing would be his low floor and passing TD's 1 floor, yardage passing 150. How many points is that? 13 or so? Upside is double that.Yeah. Perfect start for a QB, almost too perfect
I’ll be super happy with 40 yards rushing and 2 TD’s
This has boom or bust written all over it today... but I need a boom.I think 40 yards rushing would be his low floor and passing TD's 1 floor, yardage passing 150. How many points is that? 13 or so? Upside is double that.
Where are you going to get it? How many QB's will be an automatic 15-20? Lamar has just as good of a chance as anyone?This has boom or bust written all over it today... but I need a boom.
Same choice here in one of my league. Right now I have Lamar in there because it feels like a higher ceiling, although there's plenty of time for me to talk myself out of it. Not a must-win for me, though, so your mileage may vary.I'm so tempted.

Sticking with Wilson.Same choice here in one of my league. Right now I have Lamar in there because it feels like a higher ceiling, although there's plenty of time for me to talk myself out of it. Not a must-win for me, though, so your mileage may vary.
Sticking with DeShaun in my other league, where I do need the win. I realize that shouldn't matter, but I've found there's nothing worse than losing a season because I got too clever.
I can easily see that. I wonder which side of the Lamar start / sit will be eating crow? Lol100 yards rushing, 200 passing, 1 rushing td and 2 passing td’s. Write it down.
I changed my mind and will start Jackson over Rivers.I have Jackson in one Superflex dynasty league. Starting Rivers and Rodgers over him this week.
He scored 19.2 points in that league last week, which ranked him as QB #16. The rushing production is nice for his floor, but TDs matter. I have to see more before starting him over the other two.
Big Ben let us down? He had a rough start, but lit up the second half for a pretty decent day.Where are you going to get it? How many QB's will be an automatic 15-20? Lamar has just as good of a chance as anyone?
I really can't see Lamar ending up with less than 15 points today, and again decent day 20, good day 25, and great day 30+. It's a wide range. Last week Wentz and Big Ben let us down. Unless it's a Luck, Winston, or Newton...
Was worried about this. Figure they’ll revert back to him running some if they are still down in 2nd half. Worst case is they score rushing the ball from the RB’s.Nine play drive to open the game, zero rushes for Jackson. Ruh roh?
Yeah. Still lots of time for him to put a game together, but this is why all the talk of him having a high floor didn't make sense. He's a rookie in his second game, the idea that there's no way he could have a bad game was silly.Was worried about this.

Yup. Not him playing bad just not having him run a bunch.Yeah. Still lots of time for him to put a game together, but this is why all the talk of him having a high floor didn't make sense. He's a rookie in his second game, the idea that there's no way he could have a bad game was silly.
I’ll take some of this running stuff in the 2nd half.he is not good at all.he is a running back that throws the ball
There's a reason why even Michael Vick never ran the ball more than 15 times in a game in his entire career. It's simply not a recipe for continued success or health to constantly have your QB take hits as a runner. He shouldn't be in there.==RAVENS COACHING MEETING==
"OK guys. We have a player that's really hard to stop on the ground. We're facing a team that can't stop anyone on the ground. And we absolutely positively need to win the game or our season is basically over. What's the plan?"
"Uh, make sure our ground weapon never actually runs?"
"BRILLIANT!"
For sure. But seems like there should be a middle ground between 27 carries and... two?There's a reason why even Michael Vick never ran the ball more than 15 times in a game in his entire career.
