Before I start, I have to talk about Lamar Jackson, the quarterback. He is not like Tim Tebow. He’s not a gimmick, not some wide receiver playing wildcat. He is leading one of the best offenses in the league, and he just made New England’s number one ranked defense look slow and undisciplined.

This race was the last regular season race of the year for the teams, as they will now be looking towards the Centennial Conference Championship in November.
