From the episode

I hope Lamar plays because that makes this game uh still probably the most on the slate but like it at least gives you an alternative game that has just as high of a ceiling

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Hurts is part of the core stack but Lamar's availability affects game selection.

Jalen Hurts is referenced as one of the two quarterbacks in the Lions-Cardinals game stack; the source notes that if Lamar Jackson plays in another game, it would provide an alternative with just as high a ceiling, making Hurts less of a must-play despite being part of the core stack.
