Lamar Jackson returned to action on Sunday after missing the last game because of sickness. The game against the Cleveland Browns was sloppy. It did have its moments, but mostly it was everyone dropping the ball all over the place. In the end, the Ravens were able to get the victory. The result of the game was 16-10.

Lamar Jackson vs the Browns

During the match, it seemed like everything Lamar threw, Mark Andrews was there to collect it. But Jackson, being the star quarterback, was already the target for the Browns. During every play he made, the Browns were on him like a hungry pack of dogs. The Browns intercepted Lamar Jackson four times all throughout the game.

It is a new career-worst for Jackson. But to look at the bright side, he became the first quarterback to win a game after throwing four interceptions in eight years. All the others have lost 41 games straight after throwing four interceptions.

Lamar Jackson is not particularly happy about his comeback performance. He tweeted, “I’M GETTING BACK IN THE LAB FLOCK WTF”. We can sense Jackson’s frustration of throwing four interceptions. 

In the post-match interview, Jackson said, “I’m hot, I feel like those drives, when the interceptions came, we could’ve done something on those drives. We could’ve put points on the board.”

Lamar takes full responsibility for the plays and, being a true leader, says, “I just told my team, ‘That’s me. I owe y’all.'”

Jackson, along with being frustrated and making a new infamous record, also made some amazing plays. In the second half, Jackson finished off his first drive. He threw an amazing 13-yard touchdown pass to Mark Andrews. A bunch of Cleveland players were coming after Jackson, but he still managed to find his man. It was a thing of beauty. This was the first touchdown of the game and put the Ravens in the lead with 13-3. Jackson channeled his aggression into his 15th touchdown pass of the season.
