Lamar Jackson had an impressive game with five touchdown passes to lead the Baltimore Ravens to a 41-31 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Ravens improved to 5-2, while the Bucs dropped to 4-3. The game featured a matchup between Jackson and Baker Mayfield, both MVP candidates. Jackson completed 17 of 22 passes for 281 yards, with Mark Andrews catching two touchdown passes.
Unfortunately, the Buccaneers lost key players in Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Godwin suffered a dislocated ankle, which could end his season. Evans also dealt with a hamstring injury. Despite the injuries, the Bucs fought back in the fourth quarter with Mayfield connecting with Rachaad White for two touchdowns.
On the Ravens’ side, Rashod Bateman had a standout performance with 121 receiving yards and a touchdown. Tight end Mark Andrews also contributed with two scores. Derrick Henry continued his dominance in the rushing game with 169 yards on 15 carries.
The Ravens now have a five-game win streak after starting the season 0-2. The loss of Evans and Godwin adds to the challenges for the Buccaneers as they look to bounce back. The game showcased the offensive firepower of both teams, but ultimately, Lamar Jackson’s stellar performance led the Ravens to victory.
