Jones is 23rd in EPA per dropback and 27th in expected points per game (14.9), leaving him as a floor-based QB2.īaltimore has forced each of the first two teams they have faced to go extremely pass-heavy while they are dealing with a number of injuries in their cornerback room once again. Mac Jones: Jones opened the season as the QB29 (8.5 points) and the QB22 (12.7 points), throwing one touchdown in each of the opening two games. Jackson could be due some regression in the touchdown passing department, but his dual-threat ability still has him in play as a QB1. The Patriots are 13th in passing points allowed through two weeks, facing Tua Tagovailoa and Mitchell Trubisky. Jackson has only made two starts against New England, but he has scored 28.6 and 21.5 points in those games. While Jackson has surely run hot in passing touchdown production, his career rate of throwing a touchdown per completion is 10.1%, which is still above league average. Jackson has thrown six touchdown passes through two weeks, with three of 25 yards or longer and just one within 10 yards of the end zone. The 2019 version of Jackson could be back, but right now he is the top quarterback in points over expectation. His 11.4-yard depth of target is the highest in the league while only Jared Goff (really) has thrown a lower rate of passes at or behind the line of scrimmage than Jackson (13.6%). Jackson has gotten there by aggressively pushing the ball downfield. After just 17 rushing yards Week 1, Jackson ran for 119 yards this past week, carried by a 79-yard touchdown, the longest run of his career. Lamar Jackson: Jackson has been incredible to open the season for fantasy, finishing Week 1 as the QB8 (20.2 points) and then going nuclear last week as the QB1 (42.6 points), which was a career-high. New England has scored on 21.1% (4-of-19) of their drives, ahead of only the Seahawks and Colts through two weeks.The Ravens have allowed a league-high 473.5 yards per game for fantasy.Baltimore running backs have scored 9.6% of the team’s non-passing fantasy points, the lowest rate in the league.81.8% of the yardage allowed by Baltimore has come via passing, the highest rate in the league. 15.8% of Lamar Jackson’s completions have gone for a touchdown, the highest rate in the league.
