Baltimore Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta shuts down narrative about Lamar Jackson's lack of postseason success.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was named the 2024 NFL MVP by the Pro Football Writers of America, the organization announced Wednesday. Jackson earned the honor for a third time, including last season.

After the Baltimore Ravens fell to the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round — in large part thanks to Mark Andrews’ unfortunate miscues — superstar quarterback Lamar Jackson showed us exactly who he is. He blamed himself for the Ravens’ latest disappointing postseason failure and didn’t throw anyone else under the bus.

It's a decision Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta is thankful for every day he comes into the office. "I can say there's no player I'd rather have on my team than Lamar Jackson.

Evidently, only one team can come away a champion by the end of the season, and the Baltimore Ravens won't be doing such this year. After building a star-studded team, the Ravens fell short in the Divisional Round after a soul-crushing 27-25 loss to the Buffalo Bills.

The irony of it all? In a new clip from Hard Knocks, Jackson actually wanted the Ravens to practice in the cold leading up to their matchup with the Bills. It was a good idea, but it clearly didn’t help Jackson (or Andrews) much: Lamar was pushing to practice in the cold.

Last year, the Ravens lost after Zay Flowers fumbled the ball on the goal line. This year, Flowers was out with injury and the two tight ends carried the load for the passing game. But Andrews' mistakes will be the lasting memory of this game.

Turnovers and a late dropped pass doomed Baltimore, and the star QB used colorful language to sum up his team's misfortune.
