When asked last week if he is playing the best football of his career, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson said the game slowed down even more for him in his seventh season. With the way he’s playing, it’s easy to understand why he feels that way.

In Monday night’s 41-31 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Jackson put in another incredible performance as the Ravens won their fifth straight game. He was nearly perfect through the air as he completed 17 of 22 passes for 281 yards and five touchdowns, and added 52 yards on the ground. As he looks to win his second straight MVP award and third place overall, this performance will be one to remember for voters.

Even in the midst of an incredible performance, Jackson found new ways to impress. With the Ravens leading handily in the fourth quarter, Jackson made a key block on a 39-yard run by running back Derrick Henry. It’s a play that has to be seen to be believed, so check it out.

The Ravens led the league in many key statistics heading into this game, and with over 500 total yards once again, it’s hard to argue that their offense isn’t the best in the NFL right now. However, perception can change in an instant in this league, and Jackson and co. know better than to get lost in their own hype.

“I know what it feels like to be 0-2. I really don’t care about the hype — not just about being 0-2 — I just know how the NFL works,” Jackson told reporters Thursday. “It’s ‘Any given Sunday.’ So I’m not going to dwell on an MVP trophy or anything like that; I never did that. Even when I won that, I never dwelled on it, and (it’s) the same now win to reach February and win in February.”

With the win, the Ravens improve to 5-2 on the season. Most importantly, they are a team that no one wants to play against right now, thanks in large part to Jackson playing out of his mind.
