Harbaugh said he respects Allen's passion for winning, which is another trait he shares with Jackson. In his rookie season, Allen took exception to something Ravens legend Terrell Suggs said or did and let him know about it.

Bills coach Sean McDermott was asked about preparing for Jackson during his press conference. McDermott had high praise for the Ravens' quarterback. "There's only one Lamar Jackson at the end of the day," said McDermott. "So you do the best you can to try and simulate it." Then as he shook his head he added, "Good luck."
