Lamar Jackson throws 5 TDs, rushes for 95 yards in 45-6 rout vs. Rams

LOS ANGELES -- Lamar Jackson was unstoppable in his Monday Night Football debut, showing the football world once again why he's perhaps the best player in the game.

In a 45-6 rout of the Los Angeles Rams, Jackson put together another MVP performance in leading the Baltimore Ravens to scores on all six of his drives while continuing to rewrite the NFL record book.

With Jackson ripping long runs and threading passes in the red zone, here are some new feats he established Monday:

  • First player with five touchdown passes in a Monday Night Football debut, according to the Elias Sports Bureau

  • Youngest player (22 years old) with multiple five touchdown pass games in NFL history

  • First player in NFL history with four touchdown passes and at least 50 yards rushing in consecutive games

  • First player with at least 3,000 passing yards and 1,500 rushing yards over his first two seasons in NFL history.
