The Baltimore Ravens have finally begun to look like they got it all together now. The team had a dominating 34-20 victory against the Cincinnati Bengals on a night that was overshadowed by season-ending injuries of tight end Mark Andrews and quarterback Joe Burrow and a scary moment when Odell Beckham Jr. was also ruled out for the same.
Skip Bayless of Undisputed on FS1 was deeply impressed by the Ravens’ performance last night. The analyst said,
They looked like a Super Bowl team last night because when you can run for 157 and you get a balance of 264-yards passing.
The analyst was impressed by what he saw from quarterback Lamar Jackson last night. The QB had 264 yards and 2 touchdowns and rushed for 54 yards. Skip Bayless had to give the QB his flowers as he praised him by calling him a “flat-out stud.” He further stated
I just hope...there's this weird notion out there, I hope it persists because it drives this young man.
Lamar Jackson and the Ravens are at the top of the AFC North
The notion could be the fact that Lamar Jackson attracts a lot of undue criticism and is accused of being overrated, not worth his massive contract, a one-hit wonder, and so on. Skip Bayless wants that notion to continue because all that does is drive Lamar Jackson to prove his haters wrong.
It was not just Lamar Jackson that Skip Bayless appreciated; he was impressed by what he witnessed from Odell Beckham Jr. who had his first 100-yard game in nearly two years and even Zay Flowers.

The analyst acknowledged that the Mark Andrews season-ending injury was bad, but this time Jackson does have other weapons around him,
For once, Lamar does have weapons outside--- I gotta say, Odell is starting to look like Odell last night.
OBJ is beginning to run his routes and step up to the plate as he was accustomed to before his injury. The analyst credited Zay Flowers for his speed and route-running.
