"OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- When Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson plays at Kansas City on Sunday, he will go to the one place in the NFL where he's only felt defeat multiple times. But Jackson doesn't feel any extra motivation heading into Arrowhead Stadium, where he has a career 0-3 record."
""It's in the past," Jackson said. "You can't bring what happened back whenever to this year. We've just have to lock in on what's ahead right now." The focus for the Ravens (1-2) is avoiding their worst start in a decade, although they'll have to overcome their Arrowhead hurdle to do so."
"Jackson's first loss as an NFL starting quarterback occurred in Kansas City in 2018, when a sack knocked him out of overtime with an ankle injury. Robert Griffin III threw two incompletions to end a 27-24 loss. A year later at Arrowhead, Jackson scored on a 9-yard run that got Baltimore within one score in the fourth quarter, but the Ravens were foiled by three failed 2-point conversions in a 33-28 setback. Then, in last season's opener in Kansas City, Jackson thought he had tied the score with no time remaining but the 10-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Likely was overturned by replay. It was ruled that Likely's toe landed on the end line, which closed out a 27-20 defeat."
Lamar Jackson has struggled at Arrowhead Stadium, holding a 0-3 career record there. The Ravens enter the Kansas City game 1-2 and aim to avoid their worst start in a decade. Jackson says past results do not motivate him and that the team must focus on the present. His first NFL starting loss happened at Arrowhead in 2018 after a sack caused an overtime-ending ankle injury. Subsequent Arrowhead games included a 33-28 loss with failed 2-point attempts and a season opener loss where a late touchdown to Isaiah Likely was overturned by replay.
