The Baltimore Ravens clinched the AFC North on Thursday night with a 42-21 win over the New York Jets, becoming the third NFL team to lock up its division thus far this season.
With 86 rushing yards against the Jets on Thursday, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson broke Michael Vick’s single-season record for rushing yards by a quarterback.
Jackson, 22, has now run for 1,103 yards and seven touchdowns in 2019 — with two games still to play.
“It’s something that everybody can be excited about,” Vick told the Ravens’ team web site before the game.
It’s a bit of an unusual spot for Baltimore to be in, given how competitive the AFC North has been over the years.
