Lamar Jackson Takes Over; Patriots Can’t Answer
Week 3 of the Patriots season was a big test for the defense as Lamar Jackson and the Ravens came into town, smarting off of a late meltdown against Miami. Jackson is already an uber-talented QB and has a talented group of skill position players around him. The final score reflected that.
The defense, however, wasn’t all bad, they made a concerted effort to get after and pressure Jackson, and they were able to do that for chunks of the game. But in the second half, Ravens Offensive Coordinator Greg Norman called a fantastic game, he could tell what the Patriots were going to do, and he made several great calls to unleash Jackson, which opened up all of the skill position players.
