The Ravens are special: You already knew Lamar Jackson was good and that only the most moronic of morons were buying into the “they figured him out” talking points coming from various NFL also-ran types.

On top of that, they’ve now had to play on a short week, coming off an overtime MNF game, twice this season; both games were against fellow AFC bluebloods and both games they won, stealing one from the Chiefs in Week 2 and completely outclassing the Chargers on Sunday. Let's take a lot at the whole picture.
