Baltimore, Maryland (AP) –Lamar Jackson The Baltimore Ravens, who are one victory away from winning the Super Bowl, did not appear to be the club that defeated Houston in their playoff opener to finish first in the NFL regular season.
Even worse, Lamar Jackson’s quarterback was well out of parity and cleverly performed the entire season like a consensual MVP.
“We’re insane. Following the team’s 17-10 defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Jackson declared, “My team and I have been talking about the Super Bowl all season long—we were one win away from it.”We were not up to par. Nothing was written on the board by us. We managed one goal. That is not who we are. I’m furious because I know how hard we worked to get here, not disappointed.
As the top-seeded Ravens (14-5) hosted their first-ever AFC Championship game, they were badly penalized, pushed the ball away three times, and played inconsistently against Jackson’s previous Super Bowl victors.
Jackson ran for 20 yards on 272 yards and completed 37 passes for 37 yards, but Jay Flowers outperformed Jackson in some key games by making two passes for 30 and 54 yards. He threw an interception, was intercepted once, and was sacked four times.

“You are unable to flip the ball. Hard, “Lamar Jackson’s remarked. “The defense performed admirably, putting an excellent 17-point attack on them. There was just one touchdown for us. That is not who we are. No justifications.”
After the season, Lamar Jackson’s career record was down to 2-4. Despite silencing some critics in the playoffs with a 34-10 victory over Houston, the multifaceted star is still chasing his first Super Bowl berth.
John Harbaugh, the coach of the Ravens, remarked, “I told him to stand tall.” “He’s had an incredible season. He fought and gave an energetic performance today. There’s nothing to be disappointed about because he gave it his all.”
Not only did Jackson struggle in front of the wet audience, but the Ravens never managed to seize the lead. Flowers had five receptions for 115 yards and the lone touchdown for his side, but he was also called for unsportsmanlike conduct following a third-quarter 54-yard pass. Flowers lost on the goal line in the fourth game, and Baltimore lost the series 17–7.
“Everyone makes errors,” Lamer Jackson declared. “This season is his first. It’s the first time for both him and me to be in this circumstance. We’re returning. Nobody is flawless at a game.”
It was not near the Ravens. With a back-and-forth with the passengers, needless carelessness, twelve guys on the field, and, as previously indicated, receiving eight flags
“The other side is never the focus. Ravens linebacker Rokwan Smith stated, “It’s about us.”
Maybe, but the Chiefs performed as they had in a similar circumstance previously. What they possessed was their sixth straight trip to the AFC championship game. Unexpectedly, Kansas City played well against the Ravens after leveraging that experience to defeat Miami and halt Buffalo’s run on the road.
The Chiefs held the ball for fifteen minutes longer than Baltimore, were only penalized three times, and did not turn the ball over. To maintain drives and keep the ball out of the Ravens’ hands, Kansas City successfully completed eight of its eighteen third-down attempts.
Smith, who was given credit for 16 tackles, said, “It’s definitely disappointing to keep them in that situation where you want them and not be able to take advantage of it as a defense.” “Kudos to those guys for getting the job done.”
Thus, on February 11, the Ravens will clear out their lockers and think about what went wrong and how to repair it instead of traveling to Las Vegas for the Super Bowl.
The Ravens had a season filled with highs and lows, including a significant roster turnover, a revitalized offense under first-year coach Todd Monken, and a comeback from a 3-2 start to the finish.
When asked what he would remember most about this team, Lamar Jackson’s replied, “Our intense battles.” The entire season, we were up against hardship. Nobody anticipated finding us in this situation. A totally new team, new guys, and a new system. We weren’t in this situation when others predicted we would be. “Next time, man, we just have to get it done.”
