I'm not convinced Lamar can consistently make plays in the passing game without his otherworldly threat to break off a 50 yard run. He and the Ravens are still only one blown tire away from being in trouble. I applaud them for going all in. Only organization to have the balls to do it so far.
Lamar has already taken a couple shots to the knees today. Someone at some point will decide it's worth the 15 yard penalty and take late shots on him
Bosa going up the middle lost his jock a couple of times.
They just showed one on the highlights. Jackson is due to break a long one. He’s averaging 7 yards per carry.

The O line is built fro run blocking. There is no hesitation when Jackson or Ingrahm get the ball, they hit the hole right now, with full confidence that the O line will get push.

Baltimore got away from Jackson running there, should have had him run it on 3rd down.
The rain and wet ball is effecting medium to long passes.



That's all the Ravens have. They have Jackson and that's it. The read option 9/10 times he keeps. The guy is athletic and fast as hell.
Agree offensively, but That’s all they need though. He is THAT good of a runner.
They are playing for NOW, longevity be damned. Time will tell how durable the guy is.

Looks like the league has told refs to protect Lamar as a passer anyway. That was a thigh high tackle and not very damned late.

But it was late, as was the other one.
Very close imo. You think Russ gets both of those?

They were close.

Russ gets his share

His passing success will go down when teams learn how to contain him better. I expect that to be on display next year. His running is making his passing a LOT easier, and that won't last long-term.

I'm not going to buy into this narrative about protecting Lamar because they want him to be MVP..

More likely they NFL wants an east coast star that will sell merchandise, tickets and get casual viewers that will tune in to see what all the fuss is about.

Just assume Jackson's always keeping the ball and pound his ash.

Or..

He's a dynamic QB who frustrates defenders so they take shots at him

He does often carry the ball like bagette. Problem is you gotta catch him to make him pay.

Not my intention. Some QBs get different officiating than others. Ask Cam Newton.

Gotta give it to Jimmy G on that play, doing his best backyard Russ impression.

Fumble by Lamar was rough. They were heading towards a 10 point lead.

Neither team stopping the other's run game.
