Lamar Jackson joined Michael Vick as the only quarterbacks with 6,000 career rushing yards during Sunday’s 35-14 win over the Giants, but the Ravens star did a lot more than run the ball in the victory.
All five of the Ravens’ touchdowns came on passes by Jackson and he finished the day 21-of-25 for 290 yards through the air. It is the fifth time in Jackson’s career that he has thrown thrown five touchdowns while throwing five or fewer incompletions.
Per NFL research, no other quarterback has had more than three games with in their career. Jackson also has seven overall games with more touchdown passes than incompletions, which is also the most in league history.
Those kinds of numbers explain why Jackson is a two-time NFL MVP and it explains why the Ravens are a contender in the AFC even though Josh Allen is likely to win that award this year.
