Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens' 2024 campaign came to a close after their gut-wrenching 27-25 loss to the Buffalo Bills at the Highmark Stadium in the divisional round of the playoffs on Sunday. The loss will be difficult to digest for the Ravens' stars, the team's coaching staff, and the fans given how unstoppable their offense looked for most of the fourth quarter.
In their penultimate drive of the game, it seemed destined that they would score a touchdown and take the lead. However, tight end Mark Andrews fumbled and turned the ball over after a well-timed punch from linebacker Terrel Bernard, which gave the Bills the opportunity to effectively end the game.
However, the Ravens' defense stood tall and limited Josh Allen and Buffalo's offense to a field goal to keep their team's hopes alive. In Baltimore's final drive, they scored a touchdown in under two minutes of game time but needed a two-point conversion to level the score.

They had the perfect play call and had seemingly converted the two-point try, but Andrews inexplicably failed to latch onto Jackson's pass, ending the Ravens' chance to win and advance to the AFC Championship Game.
The tight end's errors wasted Jackson's stellar second-half display and Dallas Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons couldn't help but empathize with the Ravens' quarterback. He wrote:
"Dammm bruh I hate that for Lamar!! Def made some mistakes early but damm he played good enough to win in the second half!!"
