NFL Week 7, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider
By Dan Parzych
10. Wilson, Jackson combine for eight total touchdowns
Even though there’s still plenty of time remaining in the regular season, if Russell Wilson and Lamar Jackson turned out to be two of the strong MVP candidates when the time comes, no one would be surprised at all.
While Wilson has the edge over Jackson at the moment since his experience alone gives the Seahawks quarterback a major advantage, the Ravens youngster deserves plenty of credit for the progress made during his sophomore campaign.
With Seattle and Baltimore squaring off on Sunday, this could turn into one of those contests in which both quarterbacks end up being part of a shootout with the game coming right down to one of the final drives in the fourth quarter.
As football fans know, both Wilson and Jackson benefit from their ability to be effective as running quarterbacks while causing all sorts of problems for opposing defenses.
Passing the football is always going to be the top option for each quarterback, but since Wilson and Jackson could end up with a few rushing touchdowns in this one, setting the touchdown total at eight for these two seems fair.
And if this turns out to be the case, it’s safe to say fantasy football owners with Wilson or Jackson on their roster will be thrilled over Week 7.
