**Baltimore, MD -** During Sunday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and Dallas Cowboys, former NFL quarterback and current Fox commentator Tom Brady couldn’t help but be impressed by Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson’s performance. Brady, known for his own exceptional skills on the field, was particularly struck by Jackson’s ability to turn potential negative plays into positive ones.
“He just erases things that come up when you see bad football,” Brady said during the broadcast. “He turns what would be a negative play for almost every other quarterback, and he turns it into another rushing first down. It’s awesome.”
The legendary quarterback even bestowed a nickname upon Jackson, dubbing him “The Eraser” for his ability to wipe away potential errors.
Jackson, who was named the NFL MVP in 2019, was flattered by Brady’s praise and nickname. “That’s the GOAT, man,” Jackson said, referring to Brady as the “Greatest Of All Time”. “One of the greatest quarterbacks ever to play the game. For him to give me a nickname, ‘The Eraser,’ and how he judges my game, it’s just dope for me to hear.”
Jackson’s performance in Week 3 was indeed impressive. He completed 12 of 15 passes for 182 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing for 87 yards and another touchdown on 14 carries. The Ravens ultimately won the game 28-25, avoiding an 0-3 start to the season.
While “The Eraser” may not stick as Jackson’s official nickname, Brady’s admiration for the Ravens quarterback is clear. The two could potentially face each other again later this season if Fox decides to broadcast the Week 16 matchup between the Ravens and Steelers, which will be played on Saturday.
