“Run, Lamar, Run!” Why are we yelling for Lamar? Well, Forrest doesn’t play in the NFL, and Lamar Jackson’s season total rush yards should be considered the best bet. The Baltimore Ravens Quarterback is in the prime of his career, with a rushing total set at 685.5. This also gives bettors an excuse to watch one of the most exciting players in the NFL all season long.
Lamar Jackson’s Rushing History
The former MVP of the league, Lamar Jackson, enters his 7th season with the Baltimore Ravens. Jackson has over 5200 Career yards in his first six years in the league. He is on pace (averaging 876 yards a season) to shatter Michael Vick’s all-time career rushing quarterback record this upcoming season. Jackson is 851 yards away from taking the title from Vick, so there is added motivation. Jackson’s rookie season was the lowest rushing total of his career, racking up 695 yards.
The Ravens Quarterback’s Vegas Odds is currently set at 685.5 rushing yards, which would be a new career low for Jackson. BetMGM has the over at -115, which could be a fun futures player prop to pay attention to. Baltimore has a great chance at being the NFL’s lead rushing team as a whole, in addition to Derrick Henry. The former Titan amongst the Titans is a former league leader in rushing, and he teams up with the elusive Jackson!
Even with the addition of Henry in the backfield, oppurtunities should present themselves to Lamar Jackson. One should believe the Ravens will have an exciting Option Package with the dynamic duo in the backfield! This has the potential to be one of the greatest Duos ever assembled. Don’t worry about Jackson being a year older or being told to slow down, when this man’s instinct takes over he will be running up and down the grid iron!
Imagine Shaq and Kobe as a football combo, “Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Children of all ages, The Baltimore Ravens give you its defining AFC Champions of the North, Lamar ‘Action’ Jackson and Derrick ‘King’ Henry, The New Ravens Backfield!” There will be enough yards to go to around, defenses will have to deal with the speed and elusiveness of Jackson and the freight rain that is Derrick Henry.
Lamar Jackson vs The AFC North
Lamar Jackson leads the defending AFC North Champs, Baltimore Ravens into the 2024 season looking to repeat for the first time in years. Jackson has a career record of 17-10 versus his divisional opponents. The AFC North and NFC North are competing for the toughest two divisions in football.
The Pittsburgh Steelers may see a slight decline this year with their Quarterback controversy, bringing in Justin Fields from the Chicago Bears and former Denver Broncos Quarterback Russell Wilson to compete for the starting role. Mike Tomlin may lose his losing record, “virginity,” due to uncertainty at the quarterback position.
The Cleveland Browns face the toughest road to win the North with the hardest strength of schedule. DeShawn Watson does not seem like the same quarterback that he once was for the Houston Texans. Watson if healthy is going to have to battle through a gauntlet this year to make any noise. Clevelands defense is hoping to return to Top 5 respectfully and with the addition of Jerry Jeudy from the Broncos, the Browns look to add weapons for Watson.
The Cincinnati Bengals have Joe “Cool” himself Joe Burrow returning after a season ending injury in 2023. Burrow, one of the most exciting young quarterbacks in the league, is looking to dethrone the current AFC North champs and return to the promise land for the second time in Burrow’s career. The Bengals seem to be the biggest threat to the Ravens and Vegas agrees with them have the second highest odds to win the division.
