Lamar Jackson cemented his MVP candidacy with the Baltimore Ravens' 33-19 win at the San Francisco 49ers. Brock Purdy entered the game as the slight favorite, but he had four costly interceptions.

"I thought Lamar had an MVP performance," John Harbaugh said. "It takes a team to create a performance like that, but it takes a player to play at that level -- to play at an MVP level -- it takes a player to play that way. And Lamar was all over the field doing everything."

"He can do everything," Zay Flowers said. "You [saw] it [Monday night]. He ran it; he threw it; he led the team. That's the MVP. You lead your team, you have the best record in the NFL, and he just comes out and continues to come out and do what he [does] game in and game out even though people [say], 'He can't do this. He can't do that,' and he comes out and proves them wrong every time."

Entering Monday night, Purdy was the betting favorite for NFL MVP and Jackson was second, according to ESPN BET. After the game, Jackson became the frontrunner for MVP (-180) with two weeks remaining in the regular season.
