Over the last two games,\u00a0Lamar Jackson has completed\u00a078.1% of his passes, throwing three touchdown passes with no interceptions and achieving a quarterback rating of 137.4.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Justice Hill contributed significantly in Sunday&#8217;s 35-10 victory over the Buffalo Bills, recording a career-high 78 receiving yards and establishing himself as a dependable target out of the backfield.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose align-center\">\n<div class=\"min-w-[300px] overflow-x-hidden text-center font-secondary uppercase my-2.5 min-h-[280px] md:min-h-[250px]\">\n<div id=\"content_3\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2><strong>Lamar Jackson on the Ravens versatile offense<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Jackson appreciates the evolution of the Ravens&#8217; offense, attributing it to its versatility.

Ricard has provided significant blocks on several of Henry&#8217;s longest runs, such as the 87-yard touchdown on the first play against the Bills.<\/p>\n<p>Having a versatile fullback like Ricard is an essential element of Baltimore&#8217;s offensive identity.<\/p>\n<p>Todd Monken shares Jackson&#8217;s viewpoint, stating that if opponents stack the box to contain Henry, the Ravens will need to find alternative methods to move the ball effectively.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose align-center\">\n<h2><strong>The Ravens improving their passing game<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Nonetheless, the Ravens understand that there will be moments this season when their passing game must take charge, particularly if they find themselves behind in the second half.<\/p>\n<p>Three-time Pro Bowl tight end Mark Andrews, who has been a solid blocker throughout the season, has experienced two consecutive games without a catch for the first time in his career.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose align-center\">\n<div class=\"min-w-[300px] overflow-x-hidden text-center font-secondary uppercase my-2.5 min-h-[280px] md:min-h-[250px]\">\n<div id=\"content_5\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Tight end Isaiah Likely has recorded only four receptions for 56 yards over the last three games after a standout performance in Week 1 against Kansas City, where he caught nine passes for 111 yards and a touchdown.<\/p>\n<p>Head Coach John Harbaugh mentioned at the start of the season that the performance of Baltimore&#8217;s playmakers might vary significantly from week to week, and this has indeed been the case.
