MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson returned to action Thursday night after missing two games with a hamstring injury, and his team's slim playoff chances depended on him returning to his MVP form against the Miami Dolphins.
He cooperated.
The Ravens started the season 1-5, and since the first NFL postseason in 1933, only four of 358 teams -- which amounts to 1.1% -- made the playoffs after starting 1-5 or worse, according to ESPN Research. But the Ravens are hopeful the return of Jackson and a wide-open AFC North will help them become the fifth team to achieve the feat.
