Lamar Jackson is officially set to start for the Ravens against the Bills this Sunday, shaking up the football world after he missed three straight games with a high ankle sprain. It feels like this return has been building, and now it’s real.
The Opponent’s Unwavering Respect
Buffalo head coach Joe Brady wasted no time telling reporters Friday what everyone should expect. He ain’t just hoping for the best, he *knows* what’s coming. Brady said, via Terrin Waack of The Buffalo News, “I’m sure he’s good to go. No one is perfectly healthy at this time in the NFL. We know we’re going to get the best version of Lamar Jackson, and it’s going to make for good football.” That’s a coach saying his team is about to face an absolute problem, straight up. No easing back into it, no limited snaps. Just the MVP-level Lamar we all know.
History and Current Firepower
Jackson’s numbers, even with the time off, back up that kind of talk. This season, in just four games, he’s completed a scorching 70.8 percent of his passes for 967 yards, six touchdowns, and only one interception. That’s efficiency, people. And against these same Bills, he’s got a 3-2 regular season record over five matchups. He’s put up 678 passing yards with eight touchdowns and three interceptions through the air, plus another 276 yards and two scores on 41 carries. This dude isn’t just a passer, he runs you ragged. You gotta game plan for *both* every single snap.
So, when the Ravens and Bills kick off this Sunday, you know exactly what’s on the line. It’s not just a game, it’s a statement. Lamar Jackson is back, he’s healthy, and everyone, especially Joe Brady, expects him to be at the top of his game. You don’t want to miss this one.
