Major Alert: Bold Lamar Jackson Claim Could Raise Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen’s Eyebrows, as Ravens QB Prepares to…
The Ravens looked lost for nearly three quarters. Nothing was clicking. Then, Lamar Jackson delivered magic. He scrambled 20 yards backward, dodging Bengals’s defenders, something like what you see in a video game. The run was only 10 yards officially, but it felt unreal. The crowd went wild. On the very next play, Derrick Henry punched it in. That moment flipped the script completely. The Ravens scored 20 straight points and pulled off a heart-stopping 35-34 comeback win. After this, everyone now feels – Lamar Jackson is incredible!
Hence, to praise him further and talk about his incredible play of Week 10, Lamar Jackson’s teammate, Kyle Hamilton joined The Rich Eisen Show. When the host asked him how it felt to play against Jackson in the practice, the safety said, “It is fun and terrible at the same time. He is tough to deal with just from a practice perspective. I don’t even have to chase him around really like that like people do in the game. And I can’t imagine playing against him. He’s probably the most versatile athlete in the world, regardless of sport, it’s just nobody does what they do in their specific sport like Lamar does.”
Hamilton clearly stated that Lamar Jackson’s playing style is something that can give hiccups to other top quarterbacks. Particularly, Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen. And that such plays keep coming from Jackson. To which, Eisen too recalled Jackson’s scramble game, as well as the coach John Harbaugh’s comment.
He revisited Harbaugh’s remarks, who in a post-game press conference said: “I mean, what can you say? We have seen it before. I just think he took the game on his shoulders like he does. But appreciate the other guys with him.” Not only that! Apart from Hamilton, the coach, and the rest, others too agree with this stance.
For instance, the host highlighted the game’s commentator Kirk Herbstreit’s remarks where he apparently mentioned that nobody is like Lamar Jackson. He further highlighted that Ravens‘ QB Lamar Jackson is again preparing to face an MVP contender spot like he did last year and won.
Will Lamar Jackson win his third MVP award?
“Just trying to make something happen, that’s all that was,” Lamar Jackson said about his scramble game during a post-game press conference. As Kyle Hamilton mentioned, he tries to keep Lamar humble – perhaps that’s why his answers to incredible plays are always so composed. But that doesn’t mean he isn’t aiming for another MVP season. He absolutely is! The real question is: Will Lamar Jackson secure his third MVP this time?

No doubt Lamar Jackson is the heart of the Ravens’ offense. His numbers speak for themselves – leading the NFL in quarterback rating (120.7), also his 25 touchdowns in the season make him one of the best of the year. So, simply put, he’s playing on another level. Tied with Josh Allen in the MVP race (300+ favorites), Jackson is proving why he’s a generational talent.
While his 2019 MVP season was all about his electric rushing, 2023 was about more efficiency. Now this year shows his growth as a passer. He’s on pace for career-best numbers in passing yards (2876) and touchdowns (25), all while maintaining his signature mobility.
Hence, all these favor Lamar Jackson’s next MVP award, and if he wins this one, the quarterback will become the seventh player in the league to achieve this.
