The\u00a0Baltimore Ravens\u00a0clinched the\u00a0AFC North\u00a0title with their\u00a035-10\u00a0dominating victory over the\u00a0Cleveland Browns\u00a0on Saturday night. As usual, they were led by two-time NFL MVP\u00a0Lamar Jackson, who culminated his historic season by completing 16 of 32 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns. As he has done all season, Jackson took care of the ball and avoided throwing any interceptions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally, Jackson added nine carries for 63 yards on the ground. The dual threat quarterback already passed Michael Vick for the most career rushing yards by a quarterback earlier this season, and is showing no signs of slowing down. By the time his career is over, he may have one of the NFL\u2019s most unbreakable records.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>With his performance on Saturday night, Jackson ends his 2024 NFL regular season with a 66.7% completion percentage, 4,172 passing yards, 41 touchdown passes, just four interceptions, and a 119.6 passer rating.<\/span><\/p>\n

That gives him 5,087 all-purpose yards and 45 total touchdowns for the year.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Per\u00a0Bleacher Report<\/em>, he is also the first player in NFL history to have 4,000 or passing yards and 800 or more rushing yards in a season:<\/p>\n
