Ravens' Mark Andrews has defiant response about Lamar Jackson's poor form image

The Baltimore Ravens got a brutal reality check thanks to the Cincinnati Bengals in a 32-14 loss back on Thanksgiving, and it was yet another down performance from Lamar Jackson.

Lamar threw an interception, along with having two fumbles, both of which were lost, as the Ravens' five total turnovers plagued them and made life easy for Joe Burrow and the Bengals.

For Jackson, it is the third straight game without a passing touchdown, his fourth straight game of under 58 percent completion percentage, and he has had four fumbles during that span.

So, Lamar isn't playing well right now, but tight end Mark Andrews hasn't lost any faith in the two-time MVP.

“Lamar's great, man,” Andrews said. “I got no complaints. He's our guy, full trust. Football's a way of life, sometimes bad things happen, we learned to rebound, grow, learn. Not long ago, we were one and five. We're six and six. We're going to be all right. We just got to keep fighting, clawing, being humble, being thankful. I'm certainly thankful for him.”

Ravens' season still in desperate position

At 6-6, the Ravens' season is still very much alive, but Baltimore can't afford another loss, as the only clear path to the postseason is to win the division.

The Bengals have already beaten them, and they still have to face the Pittsburgh Steelers as well. As we saw on Thanksgiving, AFC North games can sometimes be a flip of the coin.

Lamar isn't playing well, and it finally caught up to the Ravens in Week 13.

Andrews has confidence in his quarterback, and we do too, but it's gut-check time in Baltimore, and Lamar has to come to the party.
