The Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson scored the first touchdown of the game just before halftime, after throwing an interception on Sunday night.

After getting picked off on the previous play, Jackson made 6 of 8 passes for 63 yards to be the Ravens converted two third downs.
The first half was different from the second because Jackson had been better at making long passes compared to short ones.
It took him five out of six passes for at least 10 yards to score. It’s six out of ten throws in 10 yards that he can’t catch.
Jackson led Baltimore’s offense in the first half. He bought time with his presence in the pocket during passes and made most of the runs. He has run for 30 yards and thrown for 134 yards, for a total of 164 yards of scoring.
Trevor Lawrence, QB for the Jaguars, lost a fumble at the Baltimore 23-yard line and couldn’t spike the ball during the Ravens’ 5-yard line with one second left in the half. Lawrence made a short pass, but there were no timeouts left, so the game was over.

NFL quarterback Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens picked off a pass and scored the first touchdown of the game just before halftime on Sunday night.
Jackson hit tight end Isaiah Likely for the 16-yard touchdown on Baltimore’s last drive of the first half.
This gave the Ravens a 10-0 lead over the Jacksonville Jaguars. After getting picked off on the previous play, Jackson made 6 of 8 passes for 63 yards as his team converted three third downs.
Jackson did something different in the first half: he threw long passes better than those that were short.

Trevor Lawrence, the quarterback for the Jaguars, lost a fumble at the Baltimore 23-yard line and failed to turn the ball over that the Ravens’ 5-yard line with one second left in the half. Lawrence threw one of his passes without a break, and the clock ran out.
Jackson stayed out of bounds and took a hit, but he still threw a perfect deep pass to tight ending Isaiah Likely that went for 26 yards and set up a score. But he probably held on, even though two players hit him as he tried to catch the ball.
Jackson is making plays all night that make Jacksonville’s defense mad, but that play might have proved to be the worst one for him. The Jaguars were down three points and needed to stop the game on second-and-6.
