Ravens vs Bengals Preview
Defending AFC champion Cincinnati confidently looks to take another step toward a return to the Super Bowl in the Wild Card. Baltimore looks to play spoiler without starting quarterback Lamar Jackson and advance in an upset.
“When you are part of a really good team like we have you feel that,” Bengals coach Zac Taylor said via ESPN’s Ben Baby. “That leads to no panic, just confidence that we’ll get it going the right way.”
Jackson will sit out again due to a knee injury, and Tyler Huntley could start in his place, pending a game-time decision amid a shoulder injury per NFL.com’s Kevin Patra. The Ravens will also play Anthony Brown according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
“No nerves,” Huntley said via Patra. “Just excited to get back out there, missing one week. It’s just another opportunity to go play football and I appreciate it, and to be doing it with the Ravens, that puts it over the top.”
Huntley has been solid at times with an 88.2 or better quarterback rating twice this season. He has 658 yards passing for two touchdowns versus three interceptions.
Brown, a rookie from Oregon, has played sparingly this season. He has 302 yards passing and two interceptions.
“We’ll see when the time comes,” Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said via ESPN’s Jamison Hensley.
Baltimore’s defense, meanwhile, faces a monster challenge in the Bengals offense. Quarterback Joe Burrow leads an explosive Bengals offense with 4,475 yards and 35 touchdowns versus 12 interceptions.
Burrow has ample targets in wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Tyler Boyd. Chase has 87 catches for 1,046 yards and nine touchdowns. Higgins has 74 receptions for 1,029 yards and seven touchdowns. Boyd has 58 catches for 762 yards and five touchdowns.
Cincinnati can run, too, with a dangerous running back in Joe Mixon. He has 814 yards and seven touchdowns on 210 carries this season.
The Bengals also have a tough defense, which allows 20.1 points per game and 345.9 yards per game. Defensive end Trey Hendrickson is a force up front with eight sacks and three forced fumbles this season.
Baltimore could make things a defensive battle if the unit matches its averages for the season. The Ravens allow 18.5 points and 342.2 yards per game. Baltimore will need a big game for linebacker Justin Houston, who has 9.5 sacks, a forced fumble, an interception, and 21 tackles this season.
