Lamar Jackson Didn’t Hold Back While Revealing Who’s To Blame For Ravens’ Loss To Bengals On Thanksgiving
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson had a bad Thanksgiving Day game against the Bengals.
The Ravens were once struggling with a 1-5 record when an injury, which fans accused him of faking, caused him to sit out for multiple games. Amid his comeback, the team reeled off five straight victories.
Against the Dolphins, Jackson threw for 204 yards and had four touchdowns. The following four games would not be as good. Against the Vikings, Browns, Jets, and Bengals, Jackson has thrown for one touchdown.
On Thanksgiving, Lamar Jackson completed 17 of 32 passes for 246 yards, no touchdowns, one interception, and missed several wide-open throws.
Following the game, Jackson was upset with his gameplay.
“I can’t describe the level of frustration. I’m ticked off,” Jackson said. “Turnovers are a big part of winning or losing games. Turning the ball over and giving them an extra possession pushes the outcome.”
Over the past three starts, Jackson has failed to throw a touchdown pass or rush for a score while also having six turnovers during that stretch, the longest such streak in his career.
“I can’t describe that level of frustration, I’m ticked off,” Jackson said.
“I’m just mad because like I said, we can’t have that. Turnovers is big part of winning and losing games. Turning the ball over and giving them extra possessions, this is the outcome.”
“Can’t have that s–t,” Lamar Jackson added.
“That’s why we lost the game. As you can see, we move the ball wonderfully, it’s… hold on to the f–ing ball. Sorry for the language. That s–t’s annoying. I’m tired of this s–t.”
Lamar Jackson Has To Play Better For The Ravens to make The Playoffs
Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson made a bad Bengals defense look good on Thanksgiving night as he completed only 17 of 32 passes while throwing an interception, losing two fumbles, and failing to throw a touchdown pass.
The loss to the Bengals dropped the Ravens’ record to 6-6 on the season. It not only knocked them out of the AFC North division lead, but also out of the Wild Card spot. The Pittsburgh Steelers currently lead the division, but a loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday would push the Ravens back into first place, thanks to the record versus common opponents tiebreaker.
Jackson has missed time or been slowed by an array of ailments, including his hamstring, toe, knee, and ankle.
The Ravens won’t play again until Dec. 7, when they face the Steelers in a pivotal divisional contest. Lamar Jackson has to play better to ensure his team comes out on top.
