Lamar Jackson’s Determination to Succeed Evident as Ravens Pause Before Crucial Games. hh

Lamar Jackson intends to apologize for his use of strong language but remains unapologetic about his intense drive to win. Jackson’s competitive spirit flared up after the Ravens’ 24-19 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles, leading to a postgame press conference filled with emphatic words and fist-banging at the podium.

With four games remaining in the regular season, the Ravens, currently 8-5, still have the chance to claim the AFC North title and pursue their ultimate ambition – winning the Super Bowl. However, Jackson made it clear that after their bye week, he expects the Ravens to get to work. “I apologize for the language,” Jackson remarked about his choice words. “I’m just upset because I feel we should be winning these games, and we’re not.

We shouldn’t be worrying about the Steelers. We need to focus on ourselves. That’s the priority; fix what we need to on our side. Clean that mess up. Forget about other teams. We’re defeating ourselves out there. There are chances, but we’re not taking them. We need to seize those crucial moments, and we’re not doing it.” Quarterbacks Coach Tee Martin anticipates Jackson will channel his frustration into effective results.

The bye week will offer Jackson a chance to refresh mentally and physically, while brooding over the Eagles’ loss will make him even more eager to return to action. “He had the mindset of, ‘I hate that we have a bye week because I want to play next week to get this off my mind,'” Martin noted. “He felt that way on [Monday] as well, so hopefully, he’ll take some time to recharge and return with the same energy for Giants week. By the time he got to the podium, it was that same energy you all witnessed.

But it was there throughout the game.” This season, Jackson has been more outspoken during games, practices, and in the locker room, though he doesn’t always show as much emotion or honesty during press conferences as he did on Sunday. He even shared a story about how his mother, Felicia Jones, advised him to have been more assertive in exploiting potential running lanes against Philadelphia. One of Jackson’s most appealing traits to both players and coaches is his genuine personality.

When Jackson speaks, his teammates listen, as they respect him and know he speaks from the heart. “I just think he’s more at ease saying things to the players,” Offensive Coordinator Todd Monken observed. “Tee has done an excellent job in encouraging that. The players love playing with Lamar because he’s incredibly competitive and such a great guy. He’s a genuinely good person – they adore him. It’s hard not to admire Lamar Jackson.” Jackson could use a physical and mental break after playing for 13 consecutive weeks.

But upon his return, he’ll hold himself accountable to improve as he leads the Ravens’ offense in the final stretch. Baltimore has dropped two of its last three games, including its two lowest-scoring matches of the season. “I’m always going to put myself at the forefront, whether I played well or not,” Jackson stated. “I did alright [against Philadelphia], but yes.

I’m just frustrated because we left opportunities out there on the field – me included. It’s a team sport, and there’s no ‘I’ in team.” Jackson pledged to bring a Super Bowl to Baltimore when he was drafted and has fully taken on that challenge. Being critiqued after every game by media and fans is part of the responsibility that comes with being a franchise quarterback.

Jackson is accustomed to it, but his urgency is understandable. It’s December, and no one wants the Ravens to go on a late-season surge more than Jackson. “I haven’t heard anyone criticize any of our players for not winning the Super Bowl – but they’re all over him,” Monken said. “That’s just how it is, so he’s an extension of us. It’s not easy for us; it’s not easy for him to be that.

But winning is important to him; being a great teammate is important to him; being coachable is important to him. [He’s] everything you want in a quarterback.”
