Even Lamar Jackson isn't used to the historic stat line he put up in Monday's win over Indianapolis.

Not a bad night at the office

Lamar Jackson

shredded the Colts defense to the tune of 442 yards and four passing touchdowns on Monday night, erasing a 22-3 deficit en route to a walkoff touchdown. And while Jackson is no stranger to legendary performances, even he was surprised by his effort.

Jackson certainly dazzled on the field on Monday night, though frankly, his on-field brilliance may pale in comparison to his moments behind the microphone. We caught another Jackson gem in his postgame interview on Monday night. 

Jackson and the Ravens now sit atop the AFC North at 4–1, in the driver's seat for the division crown as we roll through October. Let's hope to see Jackson jubilant again in postgame interviews in January as the Ravens look to hoist the Lombardi Trophy.
