4. Lamar Jackson, On The Other Hand, Will Rush For Over 100 Yards

All eyes are going to be on Lamar Jackson Saturday afternoon, as the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner will be looking to lead his team to victory. He will be going up against one of the best defenses in the entire country and he could have a very productive day on the ground for the Cards.

I don’t think he will be able to throw for a bunch of yards, but due to the Cards’ offensive line, Jackson will have to use his legs to win.

With that being said, if Jackson can just focus on moving the chains, rather than always looking for the big play, then the Cardinals will be able to move the football just fine against the Tigers.

However, trying to do too much will result in a long and painful day for the Cards.
