Win the whole damn thing!

I think the Rams game was the big turnaround for Jackson after the team dropped three close ones where he didn't come through late. Taking them to a go-ahead TD pass w/a minute left against the Rams mita timed on the switch for Lamar. And there was pressure on him Saturday after it was tied 10-all at the half.

Agree. I think last weeks 2nd half was huge as well. He didn't come out and try and do too much. He settled down, he threw the easy passes, on time. He handed off and let his RB's shoulder some of the load. He played within the offense and trusted his teammates. And they demolished Houston. That should give him some sense of calm if KC hits early. He's witnessed it first hand. Don't panic and try to do too much. Just stay calm and continue to trust your teammates.

It feels like in general, Lamar is a lot more willing to just play game manager this year. I like the change, because he's proven time and again that he's still capable of doing WTF things with his legs, or make absurd throws on the run. So if he's going to play safe and be a game manager for the other 90% of the time, that means we're a lot less likely to beat ourselves.
