Ravens considered pulling Jackson for Flacco in wild-card game

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh told reporters postgame that he considered replacing rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson with benched veteran Joe Flacco during Sunday's wild-card game versus the Los Angeles Chargers.

Jackson struggled early in the first playoff game of his young career, going 2 of 8 for 17 yards and an interception at halftime with the Ravens trailing 12-0.

Harbaugh considered turning back to Flacco - who lost his starting job to Jackson despite being deemed fully recovered from a hip injury by Week 15 - but ultimately remained with Jackson.

Jackson went on to lead the Ravens to a furious second-half charge, scoring 17 points in an eventual 23-17 loss. He finished 14-for-29 for 194 yards, two touchdowns, and the pick.

The 21-year-old wasn't impressed with his own performance.

"I played poorly. I didn't play my game. That ticks me off," Jackson said, according to ESPN's Jamison Hensley.
