Newspaper Page TextB4 SPORTS East Oregonian Friday, December 13, 2019 Jackson, Ravens beat Jets 42-21 to clinch AFC North title By DAVID GINSBURG Associated Press BALTIMORE — Lamar Jackson threw ﬁ ve touch- down passes, scurried into the NFL record book and guided the Baltimore Ravens to their second straight AFC North title and 10th consec- utive victory, 42-21 over the New York Jets on Thursday night. Baltimore (12-2) took con- trol with touchdowns on its ﬁ rst three possessions and Jackson made it 28-7 in the third quarter with a 24-yard scoring pass to rookie Mar- quise Brown following a turnover by New York (5-9). That was enough to assure the Ravens another division title after they clinched a playoff berth four days ear- lier in Buffalo. With a vic- tory next week in Cleveland, the Ravens will be assured the top seed in the AFC, a distinction that comes with home-ﬁ eld advantage lead- ing up to the Super Bowl. Jackson ran for 86 yards (on eight carries) to break Michael Vick’s single-sea- son record for a quarterback. AP Photo/Gail Burton Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (8) scrambles for yardage against the New York Jets during the ﬁ rst half of an NFL football game on Thursday in Baltimore. Jackson has 1,108 yards rushing. Vick had 1,039 for Atlanta in 2006. On this night, however, Jackson did most of the dam- age with his right arm. He completed 15 of 23 passes for 212 yards and increased his NFL-leading total of touch- down passes to 33, tying the franchise season record set by Vinny Testaverde in 1996. After Jackson’s pass to Brown, many in the crowd of 70,545 chanted “MVP! MVP!” There was a reprise of the mantra late in the third quarter when Jackson hit Seth Roberts for a 33-yard touchdown. The score came after Jackson connected with tight end Mark Andrews for a 36-yard completion on a fourth-and-1 from the Balti- more 29. Jackson celebrated the ﬁ rst down by dancing down- ﬁ eld with his arm pointing toward the New York goal line. Not once throughout his exceptional performance did Jackson show any sign of being slowed by a quadriceps injury that made headlines in the days leading up to the game. The Jets, meanwhile, hardly looked like a team that had won four of their previ- ous ﬁ ve games. Sam Darnold threw two touchdown passes to Jamison Crowder but the second-year quarterback also tossed an interception and lost a fumble. The ﬁ rst turnover ruined a potential scoring drive near the end of the ﬁ rst half and the latter miscue immedi- ately preceded Jackson’s TD pass to Brown. Darnold went 18 for 32 for 218 yards. The Jets’ other touchdown came on a blocked punt in the fourth quarter. MLB’s winter meetings turned into the Scott Boras show By RONALD BLUM AP Baseball Writer SAN DIEGO — A mostly dreary winter meet- ings lacking spectacular swaps will be remembered as the Scott Boras show. Baseball’s most promi- nent agent dominated each of the three full days of meetings with a nine-ﬁ gure contract, deals for Stephen Strasburg, Gerrit Cole and Anthony Rendon that totaled $814 million. Just two trades were announced: The San Fran- cisco Giants acquired short- stop Zack Cozart and inﬁ eld prospect Will Wilson from the Los Angeles Angels for a player to be named or cash, and the Chicago White Sox obtained outﬁ elder Nomar Mazara from the Texas Rangers for outﬁ eld pros- pect Steele Walker. “I think it’s hard to say that there hasn’t been a trend,” new Boston Red Sox chief baseball ofﬁ cer Chaim Bloom said. “It’s important not to get too focused on arti- ﬁ cial timetables. You want to be prepared to do something when you think it’s going to help you, but you don’t want to force anything.” The podium and dais remained in nearly pris- tine condition, hosting just one player announcement: Washington’s $245 million, seven-year contract on Mon- day to retain Strasburg, the World Series MVP. Boras’ other big deals remained pending suc- cessful physicals as exec- utives and agents cleared out Thursday: Cole’s $324 million, nine-year agree- ment to leave Houston for the New York Yankees and third baseman Anthony Rendon’s $245 million, sev- en-year contract to depart the Nationals for the Los Angeles Angels. Just 25 of the 168 players who exercised their right to become major league free agents last month had ﬁ nal- ized deals when the meetings ended Thursday, slightly ahead of the 21 of 164 when last year’s session ended in Las Vegas. The pace of talks does seem faster. “It feels to me like there’s going to be continued action in free agency in the days to come and early next week,” Chicago Cubs general man- ager Jed Hoyer said. “It seems like there’s probably some free agent deals that are closer to fruition. They’re not ready to be announced yet, but there’s a lot of activ- ity. I think as those things get ﬁ nalized, it will clarify the trade market.” EASTERN OREGON marketplace Place classified ads online at www.easternoregonmarketplace.com or call 1-800-962-2819 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
