Baltimore #Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is likely to surpass Kansas City #Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in postseason category | @EdEastonJr

Asked how confident he is in Jackson and the Ravens on a scale of 1-10, Orlovsky said 9.9. One need not know too much about analytics to understand that this is a pretty high scor

"In a stratosphere of his own," the NFL captioned the post. The league's social media account revealed that during the 2024 season, Jackson became the first player in NFL history to pass for 4,000 or more yards and rush for 800 or more yards in a single season.

When Baltimore hosts the Steelers in Saturday's AFC wild-card game, it'll find out if the two-time MVP can use his past postseason experience to push toward his ultimate goal.

There's one obvious exception — last year's AFC championship game, when the top-seeded Ravens were at home against Kansas City but still couldn't overcome the Chiefs.

He's won MVP awards and dominated in the regular season. But for Baltimore to reach its ultimate goal, Jackson must deliver in the playoffs.

Lamar Jackson owns a 2-4 post-season record, having thrown six interceptions and turned the ball over with fumbles three times; watch the Baltimore Ravens host the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Wild Card round of the playoffs,

Jackson owns a 2-4 record in the playoffs, having thrown six interceptions while fumbling six times (losing three) in the postseason. He has thrown for six touchdowns and rushed for three in his playoff career. In other words, production needs to increase and miscues need to decrease.

In 2023, the Baltimore Ravens and Lamar Jackson finally agreed to a five-year, $260-million mega contract extension. The resulting season pushed the quarterback and franchise further than they had been together since his arrival in 2018.

As great of a career as Lamar Jackson has had, he's struggled in the playoffs. Jackson is 2-4 in the postseason and has made it past the divisional round

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson attributes his 2-4 mark in the postseason to being "too antsy," but says he has found a way to balance that out.

Though as the AFC’s top seed, the reigning two-time Super Bowl champs get to rest during Wild-Card weekend. The 12 teams playing have more immediate priorities than the Chiefs, but the end goal remains: lift the Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans.
