The Baltimore Ravens offense has been cruising today, beating up the Cincinnati Bengals in every facet. But the main story has been quarterback Lamar Jackson’s arm. At halftime, Jackson had just one incompletion — a spike to stop the clock — and a perfect quarterback rating. But on the Ravens’ first drive of the second half, Jackson reminded everyone just how dynamic he is on the ground.
Jackson ran through a hole that was left open by one of his blockers, right into open field. He was easily able to outrun multiple Bengals defenders, before spinning away from not one, but two defenders who threatened to stop him. From there, it was easy running for Jackson, who ran into the endzone almost untouched for a 47-yard touchdown run.
Jackson hasn’t let up at all after an MVP-worthy performance against the New England Patriots. Instead, he’s having what might be an even better performance against the Bengals.
