Watch: Ravens QB Lamar Jackson dominating Lions defense in first half

By Clark Dalton | Last updated 10/22/23

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is shredding the Detroit Lions defense in Week 7.

Through two quarters, the former MVP has completed 15-of-19 passes for 229 yards and accounted for four TDs (three passing, one rushing). The Ravens (4-2) are leading the Lions 28-0.

Despite Jackson being an elite QB, the Baltimore offense has underwhelmed this season. Entering Week 7, it ranks 24th in the NFL in passing yards (194.3 yards per game) and is tied for 15th in points scored (22.2 points per game). As a result, the QB has only thrown five TDs and posted a 56.3 QBR, 14th in the NFL.

However, things are starting to click against a Detroit team that is 5-1 for the first time since 2011. If the unit can build off this performance and consistently find their groove, the Ravens could win their first AFC North title since 2019.
