If there was a single moment when the Cincinnati Bengals announced their arrival as contenders last year, it may have been in Week 7 at Baltimore, when Ja’Marr Chase caught a short pass in front of Marlon Humphrey, spun past Chuck Clark and was gone for an 82-yard touchdown.
The Ravens will host Cincinnati on Sunday night in Baltimore, the site of the Bengals’ 41-17 victory last season. Cincinnati also trounced the Ravens 41-21 in a December rematch, when Burrow threw for 525 yards against a depleted Baltimore secondary.
The Ravens have dropped their share of close games over the past couple years, but the Bengals are the one team that’s really made them look bad.
