Fish fried Dolphins:
Let’s start with where the 23-year old’s 2019 season began (and hopefully will end): Miami, Florida. Lamar Jackson’s victims that day were the lowly Miami Dolphins, who were never present during the game.
Jackson opened the year with a perfect 158.3 passer rating and five touchdown passes. It wouldn’t be the last time that he had a perfect passer rating in 2019, but his thrashing of the Dolphins was no doubt his most impressive.

Rookie wide receiver Marquise Brown had his big breakout in his first game, recording four receptions for 147-yards and two touchdowns, including this ridiculous 83-yard long.
“Action” Jackson would go on to toast Miami’s defense repeatedly through the air. Jackson threw a career-high 324 passing yards, proving his ability as a passer. Perhaps most impressive about this performance was all his damage came through the air, as he rushed for just six yards on three carries.
“Not bad for a running back”
