Cincinnati Bengals vs Baltimore Ravens
Head to head
Preview
How it plays out
Cincinnati Bengals vs Baltimore Ravens is a AFC North divisional clash between two teams that know each other cold. Our model can barely split them: Cincinnati Bengals 50%, Baltimore Ravens 50% (PK). Only 3 spots separate them in the power rankings, about as even as it gets.
Tactically, Cincinnati Bengals will want to lean on lethal passing to attack Baltimore Ravens, whose playoff scars is the obvious pressure point. Going the other way, Baltimore Ravens's star linebacker could punish Cincinnati Bengals if offensive line goes unaddressed. Expect both staffs, Zac Taylor and John Harbaugh, to script around exactly that battle.
Keep an eye on Joe Burrow (QB) and Lamar Jackson (QB): the two most likely to decide it with a single play. Bengals get the home crowd, worth a few points of swing before kickoff.
