However The Ravens are on a winning streak and need this Win to get into Play-Offs. There are 5 AFC teams in hunt for 4 play-off spots. Ravens, Browns, Colts, Titans, Dolphins. Right now Ravens are playing the best football of the 5.
The Bengals will try to spoil Ravens play-off hopes as Bengals finish with 3 wins in a row. The problem is Ravens come in on a better winning streak, they have that tough D, they have that QB, they are loaded at RB. Unlike Bengals, they are playing to make Play-Offs. Also Ravens are a team that could make Super Bowl run due to their D and QB and stable of RBs.
I would love to see Bengals win, but I have a feeling Ravens needing this game to make play-offs will be in Play-Off Mode and Ravens are on winning streak. Ravens look to be a team that hits Play-Offs on winning streak and that is bad news for rest of NFL. You always have to look out for teams in Play-Offs that did not lose since November, and Ravens are 1 Win away from that.
Again, a Bengals upset win would be nice. It is a chance for Bengals to see which players step up against a red hot play-off team, as Bengals look at who to bring back next year. A few of these Bengals players will be getting fired. So far I like the new kicker over Bullock game losing misses in 2020 as Nugent in 2016 losing his job.
I don't see them beating the Ravens at all, and just hope they play a respectable game. But then again, I definitely did not see them beating Pittsburgh with Ryan Finley. The Bengals have screwed up the Ravens playoff hopes in the past, and I suspect the Ravens will come out firing on all cylinders. I'd rather the Ravens get in over the Browns anyway.
And Siebert sucks. He's already missed.
