The Baltimore Ravens were lucky to escape Paycor Stadium with a win this past week but fortunately, luck was on their side. That was not the case for the Cincinnati Bengals, who despite leading by 10 points three different times, floundered in the fourth quarter and allowed the Ravens to come from behind, force overtime, and then ultimately win the game.

An absolutely mind-boggling play from the Ravens' win came in the fourth quarter when Jackson fumbled the snap but somehow managed to stiff-arm a Bengals defender multiple times and then uncorked a throw as he took a hit. The throw landed into the waiting hands of Isaiah Likely in the end zone making it only a three-point deficit for the good guys.

Well, buckle up Ravens fans because now there are alternate angles of the play that had everybody talking on Sunday.

Ravens fans will enjoy watching alternate angles of Lamar Jackson's wild TD

The first angle is from behind the Ravens offense, which provides an excellent view of the fumble and then stiff-arm. My favorite part of this particular angle is that after Jackson throws that touchdown bomb, Sam Hubbard of the Bengals sinks to his knees in disbelief. Hubbard was probably convinced that he had Jackson in his grasp until the reigning MVP stiff-armed him and got the pass off at the right time.

The second angle is from behind the Bengals defense and this view makes it look like Hubbard had Jackson. It also is insane that Jackson even recovered the fumble considering how many Bengals had their sights set on the ball and were barrelling straight toward it.

The third angle is from the side of the field that Jackson ended up escaping to. It's this angle that shows how close to out of bounds Jackson nearly was.

The fourth and final angle is the television call made by Kevin Harlan. You can hear the crowd cheering when Jackson fumbles the snap and then again when it looks like Hubbard is about to eat his lunch but the reigning MVP never quits on plays and that's what makes him such a great quarterback.

Had the Ravens gone on to lose this game, we'd still be talking about this absurd touchdown throw from Jackson but fortunately, they didn't lose. They won the game in overtime and now we can truly geek out about the play while recognizing how easily this game could have gone in the other direction.

Fortunately, the good guys prevailed and are 3-2 after starting the year in an 0-2 hole. They're also 1-0 in the AFC North while the Bengals are 1-4 overall and 0-1 in the division. It ended up being a pretty good day for the Baltimore Ravens.
