Ravens QB Lamar Jackson’s Final Hurdle in the Regular Season: Defeating the Steelers

15/11/2024 Raymond 0

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has faced a persistent challenge in his career—defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his impressive achievements, including two NFL MVP awards and the potential for a third, Pittsburgh has continually troubled him. Since becoming Baltimore’s full-time starter in 2019, Jackson has a disappointing 1-3 record against the Steelers, with his lowest quarterback rating (66.8) coming against them. In their last meeting, Jackson completed 22 of 38 passes for 236 yards but was intercepted once and sacked four times, including a strip-sack in the final minute that sealed the Steelers’ win.

Jackson has had some bad luck in these matchups, missing several games due to injuries and rest, but he’s now determined to break the streak. This season, he’s been exceptional, leading the league in touchdowns and passer rating while the Ravens’ offense has been explosive. With first place in the AFC North on the line this Sunday, Jackson is looking forward to another chance at the Steelers, confident that this season’s Ravens team is equipped to overcome the challenge that has plagued him for years.

Steelers Face Major Setback as Another Key Offensive Lineman Sidelined for Season

For much of their 27-24 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, the Pittsburgh Steelers leaned on an inexperienced interior offensive line, thrust into the spotlight due to a series of injuries. With veteran Isaac Seumalo sidelined by a pectoral strain, and James Daniels suffering a season-ending Achilles injury early in the game, the team turned to former seventh-round pick Spencer Anderson and two rookies, Zach Frazier and Mason McCormick, to hold the line.

Despite the adversity, Anderson remains resolute: “We’ve got to grow up fast and be ready when our number is called.” As the Steelers prepare to face the Dallas Cowboys, the offensive line will need to regroup, adapt, and overcome their mounting challenges if they hope to turn their season around.
