Even Lamar Jackson is Blown Away By Lamar Jackson's Numbers Right Now
Lamar Jackson had one of the best games ever on Monday Night Football in the Baltimore Ravens' comeback win over the Indianapolis Colts. There's really no other way to say it. He completed 37 of 43 pass attempts, meaning he had the highest completion percentage (86) ever for someone who threw for over 400 yards. When he was told he had completed 86 percent of his passes after the game he exclaimed, "Dang!" That is the proper reaction.
Reporter: 'You completed 86% of your passes.'

Jackson was nearly flawless through the air and rushed for 62 of Baltimore's 86 yards on the ground. They ended their streak of games with 100 team rushing yards, but the win should ease the pain a bit.
