Lamar Jackson: Fans blown away by Baltimore Ravens QB's 'Madden numbers'

Lamar Jackson and his numbers for the Baltimore Ravens have been leaving a lot of people impressed online.

Lamar Jackson has had something of an up-and-down year so far with the Baltimore Ravens.

Things though didn’t go so well for them in Week 2 though, as despite having a 35-14 lead heading into the 4th quarter against the Miami Dolphins, they somehow let the lead slip and ended up losing 42-38, although it was far from Jackson’s fault.

On the day, Jackson was in sensational form all around, using both his arms and his legs to put up a total of 437 yards of offence and contributing 4 total touchdowns, including a 79-yard touchdown run that looked like it would put the game away, although as we know that wasn’t the case.

Given the doubts over his future, there might have been the possibility that he wouldn’t be playing at 100% all the way through, as he might look to protect himself from injury that would impact any further contract talks, but if the numbers in Week 2 might have told you that wasn’t the case, Week 3
