Lamar Jackson has had problems against the Steelers. Now he’ll finally have a big home crowd to help
Associated Press— Lamar Jackson’s struggles against Pittsburgh have been well documented. This weekend’s showdown between the Steelers and Jackson’s Baltimore Ravens is only the second time the star quarterback has faced Pittsburgh at home. “Just being in front of our crowd, Flock Nation, just being in the building, knowing it’s a rival game, knowing what’s at stake for us,” Jackson said. I don’t think he tries to hold anything back, especially at the end of the season,” said Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen, who played for the Ravens before this season. You definitely see that now, him lowering his shoulder, him stiff-arming a guy out of bounds — which is crazy — just him pushing the ball downfield is just a whole lot more plays he’s trying to make.” Pittsburgh arrives with a one-game lead in the division, a result of an 18-16 victory over the Ravens in Week 11.
