Lamar Jackson led a last-minute drive to set up Justin Tucker's game-winning field goal as the Baltimore Ravens defeated the Cincinnati Bengals.
Joe Burrow outduels Jackson, but Lamar gets last laugh
The signal-callers themselves were largely pedestrian, as defense and field position determined the first three-plus quarters. Cincinnati averaged 5.0 yards per pass play, while Baltimore was slightly better . But Jackson, the 2019 MVP, answered and crafted his own game-winning drive. The Cincinnati defense guarded the boundaries as Jackson directed a two-minute drill, a point of emphasis in practice this week, he said, after Baltimore's recent late-game struggles.
Twice early in the third quarter Jackson overthrew a receiver on the way to six points, two plays he would like to have back. Jackson also carried 12 times for 58 yards. He surpassed the 4,000-yard career rushing mark and became the fastest quarterback quarterback to reach that mark. Jackson did it in 63 games, while Michael Vick was previously the quickest to that milestone.
