Lamar is going to give you 150 carries for 1,000+ yards and 5-ish TDs on top of what he does with his arm.
That's the key.
Lamar's flaw is that he is not an accurate passer. What's great about him is that he is a great football player so he doesn't need to be with his skillset.
I mean, he will need to if he ever wants to take that next step in the postseason, but all of those guys in the 8-15 range have some sort of similar flaw that keeps them from getting asked to the dance.
If you had to win just one game, you would honestly take that pussy Derek Carr over Lamar Jackson? Lol. Fine. I'd take Lamar Jackson and my team would smash yours.
At least Jackson's got an MVP. You don't get those by accident. Even if you take away his rushing production from that MVP season in 2019, his passing numbers alone are more impressive than anything Carr's ever done.

Lamar Jackson has thrown over 3000 yards ONCE.
If you wanna factor in his rushing yards, then let's factor in other QB's rushing yards. Last year, Josh Allen threw 4407 yards and ran for 763. That's a total of 5,170.
Last year Lamar threw 2882 and rushed for 767. That's 1,521 FEWER total yards than Allen. "Oh but he was injured!" Exactly. Because he runs the ball so damn much, he's never going to give you sixteen games again, let alone 17.
In Lamar's MVP season he had 837 fewer total yards than Allen did last season.
If anyone cares - last year, which has been highly touted as Mahomes "worst" season, he had fifty more total yards than Josh Allen did.
He also had 1,000 MORE TOTAL YARDS THAN "MVP" AARON RODGERS.
Everyone shut the **** up.
