NFL Week 11, 2019: 20 Bold predictions to consider

5. Jackson, Watson combine for four rushing touchdowns
One can only imagine all the scoring that will most likely be taking place on Sunday when the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans square off against one another thanks to having two of the top quarterbacks in league.
Based off their impressive plays from the last few months, Lamar Jackson and Deshaun Watson should see their names in the MVP conversation when the time comes down the road.
But before looking too far ahead, all of the main focus at the moment will be on Sunday’s game between two teams that could easily end up meeting for a second time come January in the playoffs.
While Deshaun Watson has been making a case for being a top quarterback on the rise over the last few years, Lamar Jackson has joined the conversation as well with the way he’s been playing for the Ravens in 2019.
Having a quarterback who can be effective on the run on top of throwing the football tends to give teams a major advantage on offense, and both players combining for four rushing touchdowns may sound like a stretch, but it’s certainly possible.
Watson and Jackson are only scratching the surface of what should be promising NFL careers with the way the two youngsters have been playing. And if football fans are lucky, this will easily be one of the most entertaining games of the weekend.
