He put the ball in hurt’s method twice, as soon as when the ball was poked out and the opposite on a near-intercepted throw. The previous got here on a busted play, although, the place Jackson had nothing doing on fourth-and-goal on a rollout to the best and tried to purchase time. He completed the sport with an excellent stat line of 288 passing yards and three touchdowns, finishing 21-of-27 throws. A few of that yardage got here on the ultimate drive of the sport although, together with his third landing move, with the Ravens trailing by two possessions. Jackson was not in a position to escape strain on quite a lot of events and was below duress typically, particularly within the second half. He wound up being sacked seven instances. As move blocking broke down, Jackson might have been extra decisive as a scrambler as an alternative of ready for issues to develop downfield. He rushed for under 35 yards on seven carries, 13 of which got here on one carry within the first quarter.
Derrick Henry was extra productive than final week’s 23-yard efficiency, totaling 50 speeding yards and a 28-yard landing run within the first quarter.
