The Baltimore Ravens bounced back to the win column after beating New England Patriots in Week 3, with Lamar Jackson once again leading them with full venom. The former MVP is amongst the handful of Quarterbacks who could challenge Jalen Hurts (as per Week 3) for the MVP accolade.
Lamar Jackson finished 18 of 29 in the air for 218 yards and four TouchDowns, while adding 107 yards and a score on 11 carries. In the process Lamar also registered himself in a unique category by achieving a record no other player has ever thought off previously as well.
He became the first ever player in the league’s history to record at least three passing TouchDowns and 100+ rushing yards in consecutive games. Signifying just why he deserves the highest possible contract by the Baltimore Ravens or perhaps any other team in the league, at the moment.
Lamar Jackson gives stern fight to Jalen Hurts for MVP accolade
The reason why Lamar Jackson might look even more impressive than Jalen Hurt – is because of the way he has led his team after an injury riddled campaign, last time around. The 25-year-old has 10 passing TouchDowns to just two interceptions on the yearlong yet is still negotiating for a maximum contract.
Being one of the most valuable players in the league so far, the Raven would be happy to register wins on the side. But the management needs to be careful upon late they are letting Lamar Jackson being out-in-the-open for other teams to make a move on him before the 2023-24 campaign.
Next challenge for the Ravens, Lamar Jackson would be the Buffalo Bills – who have just faced the wrath of Jalen Hurts in the previous matchup. Can the former MVP one-up his MVP competitor on Saturday? Remains to be seen.
