Lamar Jackson remains humble after his historic performance against the Miami Dolphins. Attending the press conference, the QB said that throughout the tournament, his team has been considered an underdog, and he wants to continue it like that. 

I feel like if you can feel like you are in the zone you are in the zone. Throughout the season, we have been underdog all the season. We would like to keep it that way.

Furthermore, taking the debate a step ahead, Jackson had a jibe against the analysts, who throughout the season have downplayed the team. A few days ago, ahead of the game against the San Francisco 49ers, NFL analyst Mike Florio made a controversial statement against the team.

The 49ers were the best team in the NFC, and the Baltimore Ravens were the best in the AFC. Nonetheless, Florio found that the Ravens would be shattered by the 49ers and the game would be completely one-sided. 

As long as their key players are healthy, the 49ers are gonna kick the s**t out of everybody they face. The quest is for second place. … The 49ers kick the s— out of the Ravens on Monday night. I’m sorry. I know that’s disrespectful to the Ravens, but let’s be realistic.
Florio stated

In reality, it was the exact opposite. It was the Ravens that thrashed the 49ers and bagged the winner. The team had a great time on the field. 

The Jackson-Florio tussle goes on

The tussle between Lamar Jackson and Mike Florio went on even after the game against the Dolphins. After beating the 49ers, the Ravens QB said that he did not know who Florio was.

Just last week we were get tore up, you know however they said it. But our team, you know we take that to heart. But we go out and play the football. You gotta go take it and we will do that.

None of the analysts indeed had this prediction that the Baltimore Ravens would do great this season. They did not count them in the top five. However, from the very beginning, the team started showing what they were capable of and continued doing it.

They became the first team to cement the No. 1 seed spot in the league. The Ravens are now the favorites for the Super Bowl.
