Lamar Jackson-Zay Flowers land high on a list of best QB-WR duos in the NFL

The days of pundits and critics using Lamar Jackson as a talking point for his alleged inability to be an elite passer are over, and rightfully so. Entering Week 7 of the NFL season, Jackson has been one of the most efficient and accurate quarterbacks in the NFL.

Baltimore has the most explosive offense in the NFL, and there can be some debate about whether you want to deal with Derrick Henry as a rusher or Jackson as a pin-point accurate passer.

ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky and Harry Douglas revealed their top QB-WR duos in the NFL on Thursday morning, and the Ravens made the list with Jackson and star second-year receiver Zay Flowers making the list.

In six games played, Jackson is 118-176 passing (67%) for 1,529 yards (8.7 avg) and an average of 254.8 yards a game, with ten touchdowns, two interceptions, and a 108.4 rating.

Flowers had a solid rookie season and is breaking out in Year Two with back-to-back explosive games. Flowers has 33 catches on 48 targets for 401 yards (12.2 avg), one touchdown, 66.8 yards per game, and 211 yards after the catch.
