You don’t get many football games like this one. But like it was made for the big screen, the Baltimore Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson rallied to come back against the Cleveland Browns and win with a last-second field goal.
The game was very much in doubt late into the fourth quarter, especially with Jackson in the locker room getting treatment for cramps. But when Trace McSorley went down with an apparent leg injury, Jackson returned to the field and brought Baltimore back from the brink.
While the internet as a whole has quite the conspiracy theory for Jackson’s absence, his return to the field at the right time had some real wrestling vibes.
@DrewdimusPrime thought of it.

But don’t worry, Jackson definitely saw people’s comments about his time in the locker room and found it pretty funny.

Plenty of football fans just want this game on repeat and I can’t really argue with them.
Can we REPLAY this #BALvsCLE game next week instead of Steelers vs Bengals???

It’s worth also handing a lot of credit to the Browns for playing tough. The AFC North could really have three teams in the playoffs this season and the future looks even brighter for the division.
FOR THE WIN!!!!!! YES LAMAR!!!!! @Lj_era8 #MNF #BALvsCLE also, I am SO excited about the future of the AFC North! https://t.co/UhNhVpJjLc
