Week 16 at San Francisco 49ers
Against a very vulnerable Jacksonville pass defense on Sunday night, Lamar Jackson had pretty pedestrian fantasy numbers. He threw for 171 yards, a touchdown, and a pick. Luckily, he added 97 yards on the ground, salvaging the day for fantasy managers. Jackson has the Ravens in the driver’s seat toward the number one seed in the AFC and he’s firmly entrenched in the MVP conversation as well.
This week, Jackson faces a San Francisco defense that ranks fourth in aFPA to opposing quarterbacks. This will be the game of the week, and expect a tough battle on both sides of the football. With Jackson’s rushing production, he’s worth starting every week, but temper expectations against a formidable defense.
