The Ravens scored 2 points per game more with Jackson then they did with the terrible Joe Flacco. Their defense was just hot and they won games that Jackson started. It always amazes me that mediocre QB play on a winning team is cheered but mediocre defense on a good team is mocked. Nobody says the Chiefs defense is great and "winners" for winning games 42-38, but QBs get credit for 17-13 wins. Jackson beat 1 playoff team this year and it was when his defense held the chargers to 10 points in week 16. Today that defense gave up 23 and they lost. The offense was about the same in each game.
So yes, I agree, I fear the Ravens defense like I fear the Jags, and I fear Jackson about like I feared Bortles when they made the AFC championship game.
