A few years from now, when people talk about the Baltimore Ravens, it’ll go like this, “The Legend of Lamar Jackson.” But the Ravens fans would agree that no matter how well the QB performs, he’s gonna get criticized for one thing or another. Pretty wild, huh? But as they say, “The higher you rise, the harder they will try to bring you down.” Jackson couldn’t agree more with it.
Did someone ever ask why? The two-time MVP entered the NFL with a reputation and holds the record of the youngest QB to start a playoff game. But Jackson amassed all the haters due to his struggling playoff record. All things considered, a veteran of the game he is, the QB sure knows how to shut his haters up. “Someone else with a weaker mind or soul, with what I’ve seen, they’d be like, Damn!” Jackson declared. “I don’t think other people would be able to sit here and take what’s happened to me.” And if you ask him how to shut his haters up, he’d say this, “I gotta prove them wrong and prove me right at the end of the day.”
That said, if you ask any Ravens fans how’s he gonna do that? The answer lies in a simple statement. The guy’s gotta lift the Super Bowl title and what could be a better season than this? There are certain greatest QBs of the league who retired on a high note with extravagant career earnings, but to make a name to remember, Jackson has to get a Super Bowl.
Honestly, if the results aren’t great, it’s not surprising—dude’s gotta deal with a ton of criticism. “I always say this: People hated Jesus,” Jackson said. “Not to compare myself to Jesus, but it’s like, if he got hated and he still was a good person and still did follow through with his purpose, why can’t I?” Well, that said, the QB looks serious for this season and he’s sighting the title as well.
As for the Ravens, they thrashed the Houston Texans in a one-sided 31-2 game – more of a disastrous loss for the Houston team. With this win, the Ravens are locking up the AFC North title, and next up? The Super Bowl and who knows if the QB defends his MVP title as well.
