All the records Lamar Jackson broke during the Ravens’ wild overtime win over the Colts
Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had a night for the ages.
In a wild 31-25 overtime win Monday night over the Indianapolis Colts, Jackson finished 37-for-43 for 442 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions, while adding 14 carries for a game-high 62 yards. In a lot of ways, they were unprecedented totals for an unprecedented player.
Here’s a look at where his big night stands historically:
Jackson’s 442 passing yards were not only a career high but also a franchise high, breaking Vinny Testaverde’s 1996 mark of 429 yards, set in a 37-31 win over the St. Louis Rams.
Jackson’s completion rate (86%) was the highest of any quarterback in NFL history who’s attempted over 40 passes in a game, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Until Monday, none of the 4,000-plus individual-game passers with at least 40 attempts had completed even 85% of their passes.
Jackson is the first player in NFL history with at least 400 passing yards and a completion percentage above 85 in a game, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
Jackson led the third-biggest comeback in Ravens history (19 points). The franchise record is a 21-point comeback over the Arizona Cardinals in 2011, sealed by kicker Billy Cundiff’s 25-yard field goal as time expired.
Jackson generated a career-high 28.4 expected points added on his 45 drop-backs, the most by any quarterback in a game this season, according to the NFL’s Next Gen Stats. EPA is a measure of efficiency that accounts for situational factors such as down, distance and field position.
Jackson is the first quarterback in the past 20 seasons to overcome a 16-point deficit in the fourth quarter and finish with 400 yards passing and four touchdown passes, according to ESPN.
Jackson is the first player in NFL history to finish with 400 yards passing, four touchdown passes, no interceptions and 50 yards rushing in a game, according to Pro Football Reference.
