From the episode

Lamar Jackson. Look, so yes, he played 4.3 points per game below expected. He was not great last year... The good news is that this looks like an outlier season... But he should be able to get back to 6 or 7. You know, he should be able to give you the numbers that he used to... You got a new offensive coordinator. You know, he doesn't have that hamstring issue.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Jackson played 4.3 points per game below expected last year, but the analyst views it as an outlier season and expects him to bounce back to 6-7 rushing points per game (down from his 9-point peak) with a new offensive coordinator and no hamstring issues.
