For the Chiefs to be successful on Sunday, they’ll have to focus on limiting Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson on the ground. Here’s who you should be watching.
No. 8 Lamar Jackson, QB
21 years old, 6-2, 212 pounds, 1st season
Chiefs defensive coordinator Bob Sutton said he’s never faced a quarterback as fast as Baltimore’s rookie. The Chiefs have struggled mightily against the run this season, and Jackson’s wheels will present a big problem for this defense. Jackson, undefeated in three starts, is averaging 88 rushing yards in the last three games. He’s not the most polished passer — completing 60 percent of his passes in three starts — but he hasn’t needed to be with the Ravens’ game plan.
