The Baltimore Ravens around star quarterback Lamar Jackson celebrated their fourth win in a row on Sunday evening and finally made the false start to the season forgotten. In the 30:23 win against the Washington Commanders, the preseason MVP threw for 323 yards and a touchdown, but also had an interception.
The man of the evening was running back Derrick Henry, who ran for 132 yards and scored two touchdowns. The two defeats in the first two games of the season were followed by four wins in a row, which means that the franchise, which is considered a hot Super Bowl contender, is slowly setting its sights on the big goal of the season.
The Houston Texans are also marching towards the play-offs with their young quarterback CJ Stroud. The clear 41:21 win over the New England Patriots was already the fifth win in the sixth game. Stroud passed for 192 yards for three touchdowns with one interception.
Previously, the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Chicago Bears dueled in the second London game of the season. The Jaguars, who won their first win in nine months last week, fell back into old patterns and had no chance at times at 16:35. Quarterback Caleb Williams, the first pick in this year’s draft, impressed with four touchdown passes.
