Monday night’s game proved to be a huge win for the Ravens who jumped to 9-2 over the Los Angeles Rams (6-5) by a final of 45-6. This Week 12 victory marks the Ravens seventh consecutive win. Jackson nailed five touchdowns with 169 yards, while Mark Ingram II assisted with 15 carries for a total of 111 yards and one touchdown. Baltimore had possession for double that of the Rams, completing 31 first downs compared to the Rams 14 and totaling 480 yards against the Rams 221 yards.

The former Louisville quarterback and Heisman winner has made quite the name for himself already in his early career. Drafted 32nd overall by the Ravens in the first round of the 2018 draft, he began his reign after relieving an injured Joe Flacco, becoming the youngest quarterback in NFL history. This year alone he has 30 touchdowns and only eight interceptions with 3,628 passing yards giving him a completion percentage of 63.8%. He has accumulated 1,578 total rushing yards with 11 touchdowns.
