Jackson expected back next week but analysts doubt he alone fixes team's systemic issues

Lamar Jackson is expected to return next week after missing this game, but multiple analysts express skepticism about his impact on the team's trajectory. Kevin McNelis notes he's "expected back next week" but "he's going to need to put on a master class if they have any hope of keeping pace in the next couple of games." Nikhil Mehta states "Even when Lamar Jackson is back, this team has major issues that currently will keep them far from the AFC North crown." Stephen Bopst adds "Even if Lamar Jackson comes back healthy, there's no way to have optimism about them," citing offensive line and defensive breakdowns beyond quarterback play. Zach Canter concludes "Lamar Jackson doesn't add enough to fix what happened here."
