NFL odds: Lamar Jackson had a special 2019, but regression baked into his 2020 odds at BetMGM

Lamar Jackson took over the NFL world last season.

Even though Patrick Mahomes ended up winning the Super Bowl, Jackson established himself as the most dynamic athlete in American sports. He set an NFL record for single-season rushing yards for a quarterback and also led the NFL in passing touchdowns. That combination seems impossible. Jackson’s historic season landed him on the cover of “Madden 21”, a sign of his celebrity.

Jackson is entering his third season and we like to believe that all young players are bound to improve year after year. The odds on the prop bets concerning Jackson at BetMGM indicate he might pass for more yards, but that the touchdown total — and his NFL MVP award — will be harder to repeat.
