Remember when Lamar Jackson was available to be signed by any team for only two first-round picks and Falcons owner Arthur Blank made the case for not being interested? Blank might have overlooked one important fact in deciding not to try to sign the now two-time MVP.
Jackson absolutely dominates the conference in which the Falcons play.
On Sunday, Jackson’s record against the NFC moved to 22-1, with a win over the Commanders. If Jackson beats the Bucs on Monday night, he’ll be 23-1 against the NFC.
His first NFC win came against Blank’s Falcons on December 2, 2018. Led by the then-rookie, the Ravens won in Atlanta, 26-16.
Two weeks later, Jackson beat the Bucs, 20-12.
Here are the rest of the results, courtesy of the Ravens’ official website:
Ravens 23, Cardinals 17 (9/15/2019)

Jackson’s only NFC loss came against the Giants, on October 16, 2022. New York won at MetLife Stadium, 24-20.
The Ravens get another crack at the Giants in Week 15, two weeks after playing the Eagles again. With three NFC games left this year, Jackson could end up 25-1 against the conference.
That history might come in handy if/when Jackson and the Ravens face an NFC team in, you know, February.
