Lamar Jackson led the Baltimore Ravens to a dominant 35-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Saturday, securing the AFC North title and the conference’s third seed with two touchdown passes and 63 rushing yards, while Derrick Henry added two fourth-quarter touchdowns.
Jackson’s historic season ended with 4,172 passing yards, 915 rushing yards, and 41 touchdown passes, making him the first NFL quarterback to surpass 4,000 passing yards and 800 rushing yards in a season.
Despite the win, Baltimore faces uncertainty after wide receiver Zay Flowers suffered a knee injury.
Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals stayed in the playoff race with a 19-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, as Joe Burrow threw for 277 yards and Ja’Marr Chase recorded 96 receiving yards and a touchdown.
However, the Bengals need losses or ties from the Denver Broncos and Miami Dolphins on Sunday to claim a playoff spot.
The Steelers, already playoff-bound but out of the AFC North race, struggled offensively, with Russell Wilson passing for only 148 yards in their fourth consecutive loss.
