Tom Brady‘s conversations often spark curiosity. But when two MVP QBs converse, things just get better. And Brady’s exchange with Lamar Jackson after Baltimore’s impressive win over Pittsburgh was a gem. Brady named Jackson the “LFG Player of the Game.” But that was not the end of it.

Tom’s candid remarks about the Ravens’ “frustrating” season turned a routine interview into headline gold. “In some respects, it’s been a little bit of a frustrating year. You guys have five losses, but did we finally see today what the potential of this team is?” Brady asked on the NFL on FOX show. Jackson, fresh off a three-touchdown performance, addressed the comment with humility and focus. He admitted room for improvement but emphasized the team’s potential. “The season is just getting started,” Jackson said. “Still room for improvement, though.” But what does the win mean for the team?

The Ravens’ 34-17 win over their AFC North rivals was quite the statement. While Jackson threw for 207 yards alongside the triple touchdowns. Further solidifying his MVP candidacy. However, he also faced one interception in the game. But the Ravens seem to be back, and Jackson’s poised response reflects that resurgence.

Derrick Henry’s 162 rushing yards and Marlon Humphrey’s game-changing pick-six rounded out a dominant performance. While Brady’s remarks hit home for a team that has faced puzzling losses this season. Yet, Jackson’s leadership and stats—37 touchdowns to just four interceptions—show why Baltimore remains a playoff threat. His record-breaking season speaks volumes, but playoff success will define him.

While Jackson leads on the field, his off-field demeanor steals the show. “I got you on the road, my man. Appreciate you, goat. I appreciate it always,” the star QB said to Brady. His responses showcased a leader focused on growth. And that sets the stage for a deeper look into Baltimore’s evolving identity.

John Harbaugh’s big announcement highlights Ravens’ resilience

After the win, HC John Harbaugh made a touching gesture that captured Baltimore’s team spirit. He awarded the game ball to Marlon Humphrey’s newborn son. “Marlon also had a baby this week, so he didn’t get the game ball; his son got the game ball.” Harbaugh revealed, celebrating Humphrey’s crucial interception and a week of personal joy.

The Ravens’ defense stepped up after Jackson’s rare fourth-quarter interception. Humphrey’s pick-six turned the game, showing a team ready to fight through adversity. And Harbaugh’s symbolic gesture reinforced the team’s familial culture. Inspiring players to perform for one another.

Baltimore’s postseason berth is secure. But their sights are now set on the AFC North crown. At 10-5, they’re now tied with Pittsburgh. They need two wins and a Steelers loss for the title. Facing Houston and Cleveland, their path isn’t easy but remains manageable.

Jackson’s leadership and Harbaugh’s gestures highlight a team hitting its stride. Baltimore is peaking at the right time with an MVP-caliber QB and a resurgent defense. The Ravens are firing ahead of the playoff, and the rest of the league should take notice.

If they continue their momentum, Brady’s “frustrating” remark might soon feel like a distant memory. For now, the Ravens are locked in. Ready to chase their ultimate goal—a Super Bowl win.
