From the episode

watching Allen and Lamar over the first two weeks is really a reminder that they're just hitting their primes... He's scrambling on 10% of his dropbacks right now... I bet a few of them will be explosive.

Jackson is in his prime with elite scrambling and rushing upside

Lamar Jackson is in his prime, showing a refined feel for the position and elite manipulation of defenders. He is currently scrambling on 10% of his dropbacks, the highest rate since 2023, and is expected to have explosive rushing production against a Cowboys defense that struggles against quarterback runs.
