That doesn't happen much in the NFL. The Ravens have a good roster and they're built to run and play defense. They're built to keep games close.

What hurts is we allow them to march down the field super quickly.
Build a great wall up front to protect Burrow!

Offense reminds me of Ohio State. They simply will not run the ball twice in a row. No reason a couple possessions ago when you had 3rd and a half a yard not to run the ball.

It is just odd.. You would think running the ball gives Zach a flat tire or something. They are literally letting the Ravens back in this game.

It’s the Baltimore secondary. They have the Bengal receivers blanket covered on every play.

Taylor just refuses to play the situation on offense. Run for 5 yards. OK done with that let's launch it down the field and get someone else hurt.

Sack on Burrow for waiting too long. And his inaccuracy today is the only reason we don't have about 50 points.

Since going up 17-0:
1. Punt (5 plays, 12 yards)
2. Punt (4 plays, 12 yards)
3. Punt (3 plays, 3 yards)
4. Fumble (2 plays, -5 yards)
5. FG (8 plays, 57 yards)
6. Punt (3 plays, 9 yards).
Burrow missed Chase deep and didn't see him on the first drive. Chase dropped a TD pass. Higgins dropped a bomb.

The entire has looked like crap. Burrow with crap throws at times, WRs dropping easy catches, Oline getting no push.

I'm assuming that, since the opponent is the Ravens, it was a cheap shot?

Gameplan against Ravens was pretty poor today. Hopefully we were just hiding our real stuff. But I find it weird to play starters so long

Next week is gonna be a completely different game. Not sure it will be all positive differences but it will be different.

More like holding the Bengals receivers every play
