Lamar Jackson Makes History With 37th Touchdown Pass

newsnuzzleBreaking NewsNewsYesterday3 Views

It’s been clear that Lamar Jackson has been playing his best football this season. Now he has another stat to prove it.

Jackson set the new single-season franchise record for touchdown passes with his 37th of the season, breaking his own record from his 2019 MVP season.

Jackson broke the record with a 7-yard strike to tight end Mark Andrews in the third quarter. It was his third passing touchdown in the Ravens’ 34-17 win over the rival Pittsburgh Steelers.

“I thought Lamar was fantastic, and that’s no little bit of pressure [from the Steelers],” Head Coach John Harbaugh said. “Our guys did a good job up front, but Lamar … He’s under pressure. This group rushes the passer always. They’re going to give you pressure. He stood in there and made some throws. He always does.”

The Steelers blitzed on 68% of Jackson’s drop-backs, per TruMedia. That is a wildly high amount, and the highest rate the Ravens have seen this season.

“I believe we just stayed [true] to what we’ve been preaching all week – just one play at a time no matter what in the game, just move onto the next play,” Jackson said. “And things happen throughout the game where it was like we could start having that little setback, but we didn’t let anything bother us – penalties, the little turnover here and there, and if we got stopped. We kept our minds focused on when we got another opportunity.”
