Baltimore lost 27-22 to the Steelers. The defeat hurts because of its divisional context, which sparked a viral reaction. Breiden Fehoko openly questioned Lamar Jackson through a direct message. “Until Lamar Jackson learns how to play quarterback, I will keep saying it,” he wrote. He later added, “The Ravens have no chance of competing for a Lombardi.”
Jackson’s numbers fueled the criticism. He completed 19 of 35 passes for 219 yards. He threw a touchdown and an interception. The comparison with Aaron Rodgers made the contrast even clearer, because the Steelers veteran posted 284 yards and a touchdown, which became a decisive factor.
Fiery message keeps the debate alive
According to Sportskeeda, Fehoko doubled down on his message: “Lamar Jackson, the QB, will never get it done in defining moments. Lamar, the athlete, when the Ravens are up two possessions, looks incredible.”
The game also featured a controversial moment. Jackson threw a deep ball that Isaiah Likely caught in the end zone. Initially, officials ruled it a touchdown, but after review, they overturned it. Jackson expressed his frustration: “Like I said, I thought it was a touchdown, man. But the referees made whatever decision they wanted.” He also claimed that any player on the field would have seen it the same way.

That sequence could have changed the ending because Baltimore now loses ground. Pittsburgh holds a one-game lead, and only four weeks remain to settle the division.
Jackson remains the core of the project—he has already won two MVP awards—so he continues to be a structural piece. Yet comments like Fehoko’s keep the debate alive. Some voices question his precision in late-game situations, while others defend his overall impact.
Baltimore needs an immediate response and the AFC North offers no margin. The defense demands offensive support, so Jackson will need to deliver under pressure.
