Fehoko’s Bold Take on Jackson and the Ravens
Former Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko didn’t hold back in his assessment of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson after the team’s narrow 27-22 defeat to the Steelers. The loss was yet another tough outing for Jackson, who has struggled against his divisional rivals.
In the game, Jackson showcased his usual dual-threat capabilities, completing 26 of 39 passes for 273 yards while also rushing for 52 yards and a touchdown. However, despite these numbers, his performance was marred by critical errors that ultimately cost the Ravens the game.
A Stinging Critique
Fehoko, who previously played for the Steelers, made headlines with a bold declaration regarding the Ravens’ prospects. He took to social media, expressing his firm belief that until Jackson can elevate his game, the Ravens will not be contenders for the coveted Lombardi Trophy.
“Till Lamar Jackson learns how to play quarterback, I’ll keep saying it. The Ravens got no shot at competing for a Lombardi. This is just the cold hard facts,” Fehoko stated.
His comments reflect a growing sentiment among some analysts that Jackson’s play must improve for the Ravens to be taken seriously in the playoff picture.
Implications for the Ravens
The Ravens’ defeat to the Steelers raises questions about their ability to compete in a tightly contested AFC North. While Jackson’s talent is undeniable, Fehoko’s remarks highlight the pressure on him to refine his skills and decision-making under pressure.
As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Jackson and the Ravens to see if they can turn around their fortunes and silence critics like Fehoko. With the playoffs looming, the time for improvement is now, and the Ravens will need a focused Jackson if they hope to make a deep postseason run.
