Lamar Jackson kept slipping against Cleveland Browns, and Twitter was letting him have it

As the Ravens ran back to the locker room for halftime, we had a very interesting Lamar Jackson stat line to look at. Had you only been looking at the stats and not watching the game, you might think he was having a good game on the ground, and you’d be correct. After all, with 78 yards on seven attempts and a pair of touchdowns to boot, that’s a heck of a quarterback stat line on the ground for an entire game, let alone for just one half.

But if you were watching the game, you’d know that for a stretch, it seemed as though Lamar Jackson had temporarily turned into a baby deer trying to find its footing.

“It’s gotta be the shoes, right?” Steve Levy joked on the broadcast before the “Monday Night Football” crew broke down the slick nature of the FirstEnergy Stadium grass when the weather gets cold.

And Twitter, as per usual, wasn’t letting the slippery turf monster go unnoticed.

Then, the change finally came. The cleats were swapped, and it didn’t take long for us to notice the subsequent effect.

The impressive touchdown was made possible due to an out-of-nowhere 39-yard have to Mark Andrews, which was only the third completion for the Ravens in the entire game, giving Jackson 53 passing yards in the first half.
