Ed Reed on Lamar Jackson: “His patience, pocket presence has went up tremendously...He's not just escaping the pocket running all the time. He's extending the pocket more. Extending that pocket is something that defenses don't always practice for." pic.twitter.com/lgOEU4LVYE

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson explained his perspective on respecting Bills QB Josh Allen but wanting to "beat" him and not be friends.

Bills coach Sean McDermott was asked about preparing for Jackson during his press conference. McDermott had high praise for the Ravens' quarterback. "There's only one Lamar Jackson at the end of the day," said McDermott. "So you do the best you can to try and simulate it." Then as he shook his head he added, "Good luck."

That's because Sunday night's game features both of the NFL's All-Pro quarterbacks, and the league's likely top two finishers in 2024 NFL MVP voting: Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (First Team All-Pro) and Bills quarterback Josh Allen (Second Team All-Pro).

This is the problem for teams facing Baltimore this season. Even when you have the right answers, the Ravens’ pairing of Jackson and Henry might be too much to overcome. An evolving quarterback, the most dangerous run duo in the game, and an offense built to beat a defense in a multitude of ways is quite a challenge for a defense to overcome.

Baltimore coach John Harbaugh has enjoyed the fortune of competing on the NFL’s biggest stages to appreciate the setting and magnitude of what’s on the line for the Ravens and Bills in Buffalo on Sunday.
