-The combined score of the Bengals vs. the Ravens in 2020 was 65-6.
-The combined score of the Bengals vs. the Ravens in 2019 was 72-30.
-The combined score of both of these years (4 games) is 137-36.
When you see this level of domination, sustained over a two year period, over 4 seperate and unique games, there is only one conclusion to draw: We've been nowhere near the level of the Ravens.
PS That 23-17 score that the board's resident homer referenced. That's from 2019. It's not as close as it looks like on paper. The Ravens pulled their starters when they were up 23-10 in the 4th. At that time the Bengals only TD came from a Brandon Wilson kickoff return to open the game. We were outgained 497 to 250, and the Ravens held a time of possession advantage of 39:42 to 20:18 (both nearly 2 to 1). This is example number 1,878,845 of why referencing one score losses is complete bulshit. We were absolutely dominated in this game.
