Tennessee visits Baltimore with Lamar Jackson ranked as the QB2 in PFN’s Week 4 rankings, and the one real worry is volume: he has not thrown more than 25 passes in either Ravens win.
Getting to those positive scripts usually requires greatness from him first, and he has paired a 30-plus-yard pass with a 10-plus-yard rush in every game this season.
With Zay Flowers playing at a high level and the Titans tending to travel with opposing WR1s, that confidence carries straight over to his quarterback.
When this offense is at full strength, it’s art. You’ve got a human joystick in Jackson and the WR version of him in Zay Flowers, a tandem that can make the impossible look normal in between the punishing efforts of Derrick Henry.
The natural concern is that, when this team is right, little is asked of Jackson through the air (no more than 25 pass attempts in their two wins this season) and that such a concern carries risk.
That’s true, but it often requires some greatness from No. 8 in order for the Ravens to be in that positive script, and that means he’s hitting your lineup.
The presence of Henry alone makes challenging Josh Allen for QB1 honors a mathematical improbability, but there’s no shame in that and Jackson very much can return the value you expected when you selected him this summer.
Jackson remains the quintessential GPP quarterback because his dual-threat capability offers two independent paths to a 30-point score.
Facing an Titans defense in a game carrying a modest 43.5 point implied total, Jackson’s rushing equity creates an enormous floor-ceiling combination that pure pocket passers cannot match.
While cash games prioritize high floors and stable projections, winning a Guaranteed Prize Pool demands chasing players who have a slate-breaking ceiling.
To take down a large-field tournament, you need players capable of delivering 30+ DraftKings or FanDuel points, even if their lower floors create variance.
The objective isn’t just to score points, but to differentiate your roster from thousands of competitors by pairing high-upside core plays with calculated leverage.
