There are no two-ways in stating that Baltimore Ravens’ marquee – Lamar Jackson is an exceptional talent, who has the potential of carrying a team to the Super Bowl single-handedly. While ‘Wins’ aren’t the most precise record to display a Quarterback’s success, yet Lamar seems to be on the same trajectory as legendary Tom Brady.
Both Lamar Jackson and Tom Brady now stand at a record of 38-12 in their first 50 games in the NFL. Moreover, this particular record ties Lamar not only with Brady but also with Danny White for the third-most wins in 50 games. Interestingly, only Patrick Mahomes and Ken Stabler went 40-10 in their first 50 games, significantly better than this.
On one hand where Lamar Jackson has the backing off a prolific individual tally and win-record, the star Quarterback is stuck in a contractual stalemate with the Baltimore Ravens. While Lamar, who is a former MVP, is seeking a fully guaranteed contract in line with the same king Deshaun Watson (Cleveland Browns) and Kirk Cousins (Minnesota Vikings) have picked, the response hasn’t been the best.
Given that not locking Lamar Jackson down in a long-term contract could prove to be a huge mistake for the Baltimore Ravens, yet his compassion to reach the Super Bowl has taken no hits. Being just 25, Lamar is entering the prime of his career now. With the kind of athleticism, agility and game acumen this star QB possesses, there are no doubts that Raven could also replicate the same run as Cincinnati Bengals did in the previous season, against all odds.
Furthermore, Lamar Jackson would be leading the Baltimore Ravens against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, not just for the win. But to also showcase his true worth and the numbers he truly deserves on the paper as well.
That being said, will we once again witness the legendary of Lamar Jackson with, yet another brutal no-look pass or something on those lines? Remains to be seen as fans all over the world get excited to witness this 25-year-old take center stage once again on Sunday.
