Highlight: Lamar Jackson walks into end zone untouched vs. 49ers

As the rain continues to fall at M&T Bank Stadium, quarterback Lamar Jackson led the Baltimore Ravens on a 13 play, 65-yard drive that ended with the MVP front runner running it in from a yard out to give his side the lead against the 49ers.

Though both the 49ers and Ravens haven’t been shy throwing the football, it was Jackson’s legs that really got that drive moving. It was Jackson’s fifth carry of the drive, including down to the two-yard line. After a play fake with Gus Edwards, Jackson ran to the left for the go-ahead score. At this point, Jackson has more rushing attempts than the rest of the team combined.

With the score, Jackson became the second player with 25-plus passing touchdowns and 750-plus rushing yards in a single season.

This game is more than living up to expectations as a potentially Super Bowl matchup. Both offenses are hitting on all cylinders today in the poor weather.
