Baltimore Ravens Quickly Corrected On X For False Claim

Community notes were added to X (formerly Twitter) a couple of years ago to stop the spread of misinformation.  This one made Bills fans laugh a little though.

Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson were drafted in the same year.  They both went in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft.  Allen went 7th overall.  Jackson was taken with the 32nd pick.  They've both led similar careers so far.  They've both taken their teams to the playoffs for multiple years.  Allen has played in 10 playoff games.  Jackson has played in 6.  They each made it to the AFC Championship once and both lost to the Chiefs in those games.  The only difference is that Lamar Jackson has been awarded MVP honors and Allen hasn't, yet.

They're doing it again this year.  They're both having incredible seasons statistically.  Allen and Jackson seem to both be in the race for MVP honors with Allen being heavily favored at this point.

This past week though, the Ravens claimed that Jackson was able to pull something off that no other quarterback has ever been able to do.

They claimed that he was the only quarterback in NFL history to have ever thrown for over 250 yards with at least an 80% completion rate, thrown at least 5 touchdowns without throwing any interceptions and also rushed for 50 yards or more.

You can see in the post above they they were quickly corrected on their claim with a community note to add context.  Not only has someone done it before, Josh Allen did it in the playoffs just a couple of years ago!  It's one thing when a fan or a commentator makes a claim like this, it's another when a professional team does it.  Don't get us wrong, congratulations are in order for Lamar Jackson.  That's an incredible stat line.  But before you crown him a king, you might want to double check your claim that no one else has ever done it.
