Part 3/8:
The Ravens capitalized on the Steelers' overconfidence, stemming from previous criticisms of Jackson. They not only executed their game plan effectively but also established a new narrative — one where Jackson thrived without the playoff jitters that plagued him before.
Interestingly, his play did not begin with a shaky start, as had been seen in previous playoff games. Instead, Jackson looked sharp and composed right from the opening drive. The success on this opening drive set the tone for the game, marking a significant turning point for Jackson’s postseason reputation.
