Lamar Jackson named over Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen in this category

1 hour ago 1

Lamar Jackson has been on an absolute tear through 10 weeks of the 2024 season. The 2023 NFL MVP is certainly on his way to another, which would give him three in his career if he were to go on to win the award. Jackson has already totaled over 3,000 all-purpose yards, 26 touchdowns and only four turnovers. His 24 touchdown passes on the season matches his season total from 2023.

He leads the league in touchdown passes (24), touchdown percentage (8.3), yards per pass attempt (9.3), passer rating (123.2) and QBR (76.8). Jackson has been widely-regarded as the best quarterback in the league so far this season and Bleacher Report shares the same sentiment. Alex Ballentine ranked each starting QB by placing them in categories, with Jackson, Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen being in the 'elite' section. The Baltimore Ravens' star quarterback took the top spot of the three listed.

Lamar Jackson is a two-time MVP and has still accessed an entirely new level this season. His 123.2 passer rating is nearly 10 points higher than his career high from 2019 (113.3)

There's no denying the brilliance of Jackson this season. He's on pace for over 40 touchdown passes with just three interceptions, which would break his career-high of 36 set in 2019 (first MVP season). The question now becomes: can Jackson lift the Ravens over the hump to a Super Bowl victory? The final stretch of the season will go a long way in determining such.
