Lamar Jackson beat seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady for the second time in as many career bouts, sending in scoring yards for 77, 80 and 85 yards in the second half after the Baltimore Ravens ran out early and lost first to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers » 10-3 at halftime
Lamar Jackson threw for 238 yards and two touchdowns in the second half to lead the Baltimore Ravens to a 27-22 victory over Tom Brady and the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Jackson beat the seven-time Super Bowl champion quarterback for the second time in as many career games, scoring 77, 80, and 85 yards after Baltimore pulled out early and trailed 10-3 at halftime.
The Ravens (5-3) rushed for 233 yards while Jackson threw 27 of 38 passes without an interception, including a 5-yard touchdown to Kenyon Drake and a 10-yard touchdown to Isaiah Likely in the third quarter.
Baltimore scored on their first four possessions after the break, and Justin Tucker also hit a 30-yard field goal to make it 27–16 with just over two minutes left.
Brady threw an eight-yard TD pass to Julio Jones with 49 seconds left, completing 26 of 44 passes for 325 yards without an interception. He was also fired three times.
Leonard Furnett scored a one-yard goal for the Bucks, and Mike Evans had six receptions for 123 yards.
TD Furnetta was the first goal the Bucks scored in the first quarter of this season. However, the offense did little to develop an early lead after Ryan Succop’s 31-yard field goal made it 10-3 with a halftime header.
The Ravens, meanwhile, missed a couple of opportunities to take control early, settling for a 22-yard field goal after recovering a fumble at the Bucks’ six-yard line from a muffled punt return, and walked away scoreless when Jackson threw an unfinished into the end zone on 4th and 3rd off the Tampa Bay 10-yard line late in the second quarter.
Another chance to cut their 10–3 deficit was thwarted when Tucker’s 61-yard field goal attempt was deflected at the line of scrimmage at the end of halftime.
