OT

Final Thoughts:

Ravens have not been able to play this game how they want to. The plan was to come in, pound the rock, and keep Lamar and the offense ahead of the sticks.

The Bengals turned the game into a shootout. The Ravens defense is lost in the sauce.

They have zero answers to the questions the Bengals offense is giving them.

Lamar and the offense have been able to move the ball and respond, but they are getting no help from the defense. They can’t stop a snail.

The irony here is that most of the money in Owings Mills has gone towards the Ravens defense.

They’ve looked inept for most of the season so far. Shoutout for Humphrey getting the pic on Burrow late in the 4th quarter, giving the Ravens the chance to tie it up.

The Ravens made too many mistakes to recover. It's sad because Lamar, the offense, and Tucker's leg were the only things keeping the Ravens in the game.

A heartbreaking loss for the purple and black.

SIKE!

Bengals kicker Evan McPherson missed from 53 yards.

On the next play, King Henry takes it down to the 5-yard line.

Justin Tucker nails it from 24 yards for the win.

RAVENS WIN RAVENS WIN! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!

Hopefully the Ravens defense can get it together as the season moves on. Great stops by them in the end. The biggest bushel of crabs goes to the offense and Justin Tucker. Ravens win a heart-stopper.
