Lamar Jackson, Ravens Defense Celebrated by NFL Fans in Rout vs. Brock Purdy, 49ers

There's no doubt who the NFL's best team is at the moment after the Baltimore Ravens destroyed the host San Francisco 49ers 33-19 on Christmas evening.

And we now have a new leader in the MVP race as well in Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson.

This was supposed to be a tightly contested battle between the AFC and NFC's top seeds. That's how it played out for one half, at least, as the Ravens held a 16-12 halftime lead.

However, Baltimore scored 17 unanswered points thanks to Jackson touchdown passes to Nelson Agholor and Zay Flowers as well as a Justin Tucker field goal.
