From the article

Lawrence shredded this pass defense last year to the tune of a QB2 finish for the week (31.2 points) with 279 passing yards, 7.8 yards per attempt, three passing scores, 20 rushing yards, and a rushing score. Denver wasn't a shutdown defense in Week 1, ranking 15th in passing success rate and 16th in EPA per dropback, so it's possible Lawrence, who looked in midseason form in Week 1, could have another strong day in Week 2.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Lawrence's elite efficiency and prior dominance vs. Denver support strong Week 2 projection.

Lawrence opened 2026 as QB5 in Week 1 with elite per-dropback metrics: third in yards per attempt, first in passing success rate, fourth in catchable target rate, and 14th in hero throw rate among 32 qualifying passers. The source notes he shredded Denver's pass defense last year to a QB2 finish (31.2 points) with 279 passing yards, 7.8 yards per attempt, three passing scores, 20 rushing yards, and a rushing score. Denver ranked 15th in passing success rate and 16th in EPA per dropback in Week 1, suggesting Lawrence could post another strong day in Week 2 despite facing a tougher test than Cleveland.
