Lamar Jackson on Preparing for Kansas City | Baltimore Ravens

so Lamar getting M markk Andrews back there on the practice field what over the years what why do you think he has been such a good Endzone Red Zone Target for you in zone Red Zone down the field on the side sideline making catches just all around man he just got a great feel for the game um and he make my job a lot easier and I can say a lot about Mark and what he do for this game but man he's just a great allaround tit end hey Lamar how do you feel to have his new back in the building have the hoop Ola Snoop oh man it's great to have my brother back in the building man great to see him man you know cut his hair different approach look look a little like mature like you know but it's great to have my brother back man definitely two-part question um how much of a relationship if you have any with Patrick Mahomes and just what do you see from him on the field that makes him unique and and what do you take away from his game I don't I don't have a relationship with them um I don't think I have a relationship with any quarterback in the league um I don't take anything from any anything from him you know I just play my game um but he's a great quarterback I'm going say that he's a great quarterback um he has the accolades to prove it um but man he's just he made he made things happen on the field that make his team successful I can say that Mar we what's the biggest challenge to playing out there in Kansas City we know it's going to be amped up week one but historically you know played out there you played some great games what's the toughest thing about playing there um we just not in front of our crowd um the the whole game it's not like the whole Raven flop there but it's I know it's our fan base is always traveling with us um but it's just not our crowd that's all that's the biggest difference and I'll say that you handle the noise how do you as a quarterback handle all that noise just like any other environment you know just stay poised um stay locked in listen to the cars um walk up to the line when I make my checks and let my line know what we're doing stuff like that tomor what was your reaction when you saw this game come up on the schedule you knew you were playing the Chiefs but for the NFL to make this a season opener means they obviously think a lot about this matchup uh I'm approaching like any other game you know but it's the start of the season so we got to make a great impression for the first game of the season when you say you're approaching it like any other game Revenge won't be on your mind at all and I'm sure it'll be on the Ravens flocks mind I mean any game I play and I feel like it's a Revenge game so I'm not just gonna look at this game like an um a Revenge game anybody we played no matter if we beat him or lost to him prior previous years I just want to win you know pretty much have winning records against pretty much all the teams and quarterbacks momes and Kansas City is the one team that's kind of been the opposite a little bit does that serve any motivation for you at all like I just said that's pretty much similar to that question um I'm approaching every game the same way you know I want to win regardless when lose a draw previous times but every game motivation to me what what are your emotions when you put in the work that you have this off season be 4 days away from the season kickoff just how would you describe your emotions I'm ready to go I've been going against my guys for weeks you know it's time to go against someone else Mar's always been about the Super Bowl for you last year you go as far as you have to this point in your career did is there anything you take away from that run going into this season oh man just you know we was close we was close but we got to get back where we were was and like I always say finish but it start week one it start Thursday night they BL you guys a lot I think 43 or so per of the of the time your pass I was curious like when you look back and that what's the challenge of dealing with that and and what did you kind of take away moving forward to you know this next game see um man of was all type of things that went on in the game that we felt like we that could have worked for us went our way um getting the ball out um certain certain things that went on like we we missed certain certain things throughout that game and it was all type of things I just can't pinpoint them blicking us cuz we we picked them up sometimes you know here and there all type of things we could have did better that game Mark kind kind of playing off cordell's question I mean sometimes hear Ravens fans say this team can't prove anything to us until January until the playoffs but I know you guys can't afford to really think of it that way so I mean what what do you want to get out of the regular season um we got to win we got to win regular season games to get to January you know we can't just going to going to the season and go what how many 5 and 12 we not we're not going to be in the playoffs you know so we got to go into every game trying to make it to the playoffs you know playoffs on our mind but at the same time we got to win this game that's ahead of us where do you feel like you've come along the most this off season in terms of your your handle before the snap I know Todd monin has done a lot with you know empowering you to make protection changes you know using your Cadence getting in out of plays where do you think you've come along the first uh I feel like I'm way ahead of I than I was when I first got in the system last year um very comfortable um our guys got young guys on the offense those guys are getting a lot comfortable feel like we we way ahead of where we were um prior to uh man camp with all the turnover Lamar on the offensive line how confident are you that they're ready to step in and it will be seamless from what it was before I'm very confident in our guys man they've been busting their behind um each and every practice you know um preseason uh they've been battling um I believe our guys ready we can do two more play it seems like every time you're watching any sports you're seeing the them hype up the game and it's you always pictures of you and Patrick Mahomes is kind of headlin this game what do you take from like people saying that this could be kind of the the next great quarterback rival uh to be honest I don't really pay attention to it like I see a lot of stuff on social media but I don't I try to shy away from the the sports stuff because I know they gonna be talking about the Ravens a lot um but I don't I really don't PIR no mind CU I I just want to play football it don't matter Lamar you had Rashad healthy for most of the camp uh what kind of expectations do you have for him considering just you know how how good you guys looked at times last year I believe he's going to have a great year a great year uh uh sneaky year you know people a lot of people be sleep on him but I believe he's going to have a great year thank you lar appreciate y'all
