Myles Garrett is arguably the best DE’s in the league right now. On the other hand, Lamar Jackson can also be called as the best quarterback in the league. When two such enigmas face off, fireworks are bound to happen, and it is safe to say Lamar Jackson had the upper hand in this battle. The QB evaded countless sack attempts, like he always does. He rushed 17 times for 68 yards (4 average).
Garrett & co weren’t able to contain the dynamic QB and spoke about it post match. “It’s frustrating. Everybody knows that,” Garrett said. The DE then acknowledged Lamar Jackson’s strength and complimented him. “Anybody in the league would tell you rushing against that guy is tough. You’re rushing against the tackle and him because he’s fast, dynamic, shifty. All the words apply, but we’ve got to find a way.”
The Defensive stalwart further continued, “We found a way multiple times, got pressure on him, had hits on him, couple sacks, made him throw the ball away when he didn’t want to and it still wasn’t enough. We’ve got to find a way to do more. Two weeks, we’ve got to find a way at our house.”
