ZT: This is the statement season, rebounding offense and defense with draft and FAs, stayed the course with what he felt we needed as a team to beat the best in our division... Bengals are 7-3 and 3-1 in division (with two road wins against Steelers and Ravens) over last 10 games...

LOU: Calls to fire him last year.. he has responded with a very balanced defense especially in scoring.. only team that has not given up 25 points yet in a game.. holding Ravens to 17 points and 5 sacks... wow

BURROW: Has put up yards and some wins in his first 2 seasons but Ravens dominated him last year and really to me this was his first statement WIN of his career... great job


Key to continued success though will be something few have talked about.. staying healthy across the board.. Ravens were missing many starters and have the most in NFL on IR... we need to stay healthy, can be such a game changer with all NFL teams

One would think Brandon and the second stringers could beat them, but the Bengals still need to go in with their A game and then rest up through the Bye. Think about it; a black-and-orange team going into New York on Halloween?

I picked the Ravens to win this game and us to get the next one against them. Blew me away how we just pulled away and man
is Chase a stud or what? Dude will just make one play a game that just baffles everyone. We are good in all phases right now and
yes, even the coaching of Taylor is getting good in order for us to dominate the Ravens D. Uzo with another big game, love it.

Will have to watch the game now as I was only able to watch the end when the Titans were beating the Chiefs badly. Saw the last
part of the Mixon TD and the Perine TD and great blocks from Hopkins and Carman was impressive.

We all know now that our D is for real, great job Lou and the players doing so well. Are we tops in the AFC at the moment?

I know we are atop the AFC North, just wondering if there is a team ahead of us?

League-wise, we are tied for 4th overall. Cardinals, Packers, Rams Cowboys, Bucs are ahead of us.
