BALTIMORE -- It's only two weeks into the season, but Lamar Jackson is in a familiar position in quarterbacking the NFL's highest-scoring team.
Jackson, a two-time NFL MVP, is starting on a path to win a third one by totaling seven passing and rushing touchdowns with no interceptions through two games for the Baltimore Ravens this season.
This marks the fifth time in the past 20 years that a quarterback has produced at least seven total touchdowns with no turnovers in the first two weeks, according to ESPN Research. The previous four -- Peyton Manning (2013), Patrick Mahomes (2018 and 2022) and Jackson (2019) -- won NFL MVP that season.
