“Jackson’s one-of-a-kind skill set may pose the toughest obstacle the Lions encounter.”
Lamar Jackson is a two-time MVP for good reason.
The most intimidating part about the Baltimore Ravens quarterback is that he keeps improving. Each time expectations skyrocket, Jackson manages to surpass them and raise the standard higher.
His dual-threat skills are recognized everywhere. Yet don’t sleep on his passing ability, because if he retired today, he would rank first all-time in passer rating (102.648).
MLive’s Dungeon of Doom podcast broke down the difficulties Jackson and the Ravens bring for the Lions in Week 3.
It’s a Monday Night Football contest back on the road, featuring two of the league’s best in an early-season showdown.
Hosts Ben Raven and Kory Woods fielded reader questions ahead of the primetime clash, with many focusing on Jackson and Detroit’s strategy to contain him.
“This might be the hardest test on the schedule,” Raven said strongly during the show.
Woods agreed, adding that this matchup appears even tougher than their upcoming game with the Chiefs — Raven quickly cut in to label them the “0-2 Chiefs, mind you.”
