Lamar Jackson delivered an odd comment and concerning quote after his Baltimore Ravens lost 30-24 in overtime to the Titans at home on Sunday.
Jackson seemed bitter about the loss and said he feels as if critics want to see the Ravens lose.
“I feel like people want us to lose,” Jackson said after the game.
Newsflash for you, Lamar: yes, fans of other teams want to see you lose. That’s no surprise. When you’re a good team, opposing fans want to see you lose because they may fear you.
But the concerning quote came when Jackson said he felt the Titans wanted it more.
“That team looked like it wanted it more,” Jackson said via Jamison Hensley.
How could the Ravens get into a position where another team wanted it more than them? These are two teams competing for playoff spots at the top of the AFC. This was a rematch of the playoff loss the Ravens suffered to Tennessee last season.
How could the Ravens possibly not be motivated to win this game? There was even this pregame issue that should have fired up Baltimore. The Ravens had no excuse not to come out with passion and desire.
Baltimore is now 6-4 and 2-3 at home this season.
