Week 2 of the 2022 season was an old-fashioned high-scoring affair, but Jackson and the Ravens were on the wrong side of a comeback.

Week 8, 2025: Ravens 28, Dolphins 6
Jackson's first game back from hamstring trouble proved fruitful. Not only did Baltimore record yet another blowout win over Miami. But Jackson impressed, recording four touchdowns to just five incompletions.
Jackson didn't have to do too much to leave Miami's defense in tatters. He only barely cleared the 200-yard plateau. But he left his mark on the Hard Rock Stadium grass. His impact was best reflected in his quarterback rating, which exceeded 140 for the fourth time in five appearances against the Fins.
