The NFL has been incredibly exciting in recent weeks due to teams being in a “do or die” situation. The Super Bowl 2025 is coming soon, and top teams are fighting hard to make it in the division round.
This Sunday night, the Buffalo Bills played against the Ravens in a close game in the AFC Divisional Round. The 27-25 close loss eliminated the Ravens from the playoffs and left QB Lamar Jackson visibly frustrated.
After the Ravens’ devastating playoff defeat to the Bills at Highmark Stadium, Lamar Jackson, who is now leading the race for 2024 NFL MVP, couldn’t contain his anger.

Some costly mistakes, including Jackson’s interception, a fumble that resulted in a Bills score, and Mark Andrews’ missed two-point conversion, sealed their fate.
In the post-game press conference, Jackson let his emotions spill over. On live TV, he vented, saying, “Hold onto the f**king ball,” Jackson said. “I’m sorry for my language. This sh*t is annoying. I’m tired of this sh*t.”
Lamar Jackson’s outburst has drawn mixed reactions
Lamar Jackson had an incredible season, throwing for 4,172 yards, 41 touchdowns, and just four interceptions. He also showed his skills on the ground, rushing for 31 yards in the playoff game against the Bills. His passer rating in that game was 97.1, showing his strong performance.
However, Jackson’s emotional outburst after the loss made it clear he was frustrated with the team’s costly fumbles. His heated comments sparked mixed reactions online.
He needs to look in the mirror when he’s saying that

Does he know he had 2 of them?

Some fans pointed out that Jackson should take responsibility for his mistakes too. They noted that his two turnovers and a missed pass to Mark Andrews in a key moment also contributed to the loss.
Maybe he shouldn’t have had 2 brutal turnovers and should’ve thrown a better pass at the end Andrews was WIDE OPEN and he had to lean back and go low to catch the ball that’s on both of them

He IS talking about himself to take the heat off of his teammate who missed the 2pt. Classy QB
