With the second half of the 2024 NFL regular season now underway, teams and star players around the league are starting to separate themselves, with their focus on clinching a spot in the NFL playoffs and making a deep run in the postseason.
One team that has made a lot of noise this season, in the same way it did last year, is the Baltimore Ravens, with Lamar Jackson and company firing on all cylinders and looking like a legitimate Super Bowl title contender in the AFC.
Along with superstar Derrick Henry having one of the best seasons of his career in his first year in Baltimore, Jackson is making a solid case to win NFL MVP for the second consecutive season and the third time of his career with the Ravens.
Although there are other candidates out there right now, like Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills and even his teammate Henry, Jackson seems to be the favorite at the moment, especially in the mind of former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III.

If Jackson can continue to lead the Ravens to wins week in and week out while putting up ridiculous numbers, the veteran quarterback might run away with the regular-season award.
Heading into Week 11’s matchup with the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers on the road at Acrisure Stadium, Jackson has thrown for 2,669 yards, 24 touchdowns and only two interceptions while also rushing for 538 yards and two touchdowns.
Jackson is carving up opposing defenses every week and shows no signs of slowing down, which bodes well for his chance of winning a third NFL MVP award.
