Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson did something this weekend the NFL hasn’t seen since the Colin Kaepernick era. Jackson proved his playoffs skeptics wrong in the Ravens’ 34-10 blowout over the Houston Texans in the Divisional Round.
Lamar Jackson was impressive on Saturday
Jackson won his second playoff game and his first since the 2020 season. His play was spectacular in the Ravens’ win. He went 16/22 passing for 152 yards and two touchdowns. He added another 100 yards on the ground and scored two rushing touchdowns.
Jackson’s performance placed him in an elite category for the playoffs.
Jackson joined Colin Kaepernick in this elite category
According to Field Yates with ESPN, Jackson became the second player in the Super Bowl era to record two touchdown passes, two rushing touchdowns, and 100 rushing yards in a playoff game. Colin Kaepernick is the only other NFL quarterback to reach those stats, and the came in 2013 with the San Francisco 49ers.
Lamar Jackson is now just the second player in the Super Bowl era with 2+ passing TD, 2+ rushing TD and 100+ rushing yards in a single playoff game, joining Colin Kaepernick in 2013.

The Baltimore Ravens have a big game this weekend
Jackson will look to continue his hot streak in the AFC Championship when the Kansas City Chiefs head to Baltimore on Sunday. Jackson could improve to a .500 record in the postseason with a win over the Chiefs.

I Like Brock he’s a good quarterback and I think in time he’s gonna be unstoppable once he gets out of his own head. I think the guy is a beast personally but I don’t know if he knows it. If he had Deebo’s confidence I think he’d be someone to reckon with but I would have loved to see Collin as the quarterback right about now. I’ve been a a 9ers fan since middle school and I’m a retired Vet now. I ride with hard for my Niners team win or lose. Those guys will always be winners with me. Niner Nation Baby!!!! Good luck and hope you succeed to the bowl. Looking forward to cheering you guys to many more years of championships and Superbowls.
That’s the only productive year Colin had. He was talented. His Ego got into the way. It was sad to see. Now no one will touch him.
Headline had me wondering what and how I might have missed something during pregame activities. Cute play.
How Classy!!! NOT
You are right about that
Colin dreck
If I were Jackson, I wouldn’t want to join Colin in ANY category; because Colin went from elite to Unemployment in the blink of an eye.
