That is a big reason why he is already a two-time NFL MVP.

Trailing 21-7 midway through the third quarter the Baltimore Ravens were in need of a spark. The defense helped give them one by forcing a turnover that set up the offense deep in Cincinnati Bengals territory. Then quarterback Lamar Jackson gave them another one with one of the most electrifying and incredible 10-yard scrambles you will ever see.

After getting chased nearly 20 yards backward by the Bengals' pass rush, Jackson managed to evade multiple rushers, tightrope-walked along the sideline, made more defenders miss and ended up getting all the way down to the 1-yard line. Have a look. Lamar.



Action. Jackson. Wow.

Running back Derrick Henry completed the drive on the very next play with a one-yard touchdown run. The star of that series, however, is Jackson. Even if he does not have his best stuff passing the football, he can still make plays like that to help swing a game.

That is a big reason why he is already a two-time NFL MVP and has a chance to win a third MVP award this season..
