Watch: Ravens QB Lamar Jackson escapes sack, connects on deep pass vs. Jaguars

Perhaps no other quarterback in the NFL can do what Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson can, and the star proved it with a jaw-dropping play on "Sunday Night Football" against the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Late in the third quarter, Jackson shook off a would-be sack by linebacker Dawuane Smoot, who returned to drive him to the ground, but not before connecting with tight end Isiah Likely on a ridiculous jump-ball pass for a 26-yard gain.

Jackson's ad-lib set the Ravens up in the red zone, and two plays later, running back Gus Edwards scored from one yard out to give the Ravens a commanding 17-7 lead to start the fourth. 

The definition of a dual-threat QB, Jackson showed once again why he might be the best at it in the league. The former MVP is making a case for another after making plays like the one on Sunday night, as it's hard to imagine where the Ravens might be without him.
