Tale of the Tape: Hope for the Offense Headed Into Cincy?

The Ravens will be without Lamar Jackson for their wild card matchup with the Bengals on Sunday, which normally would dash Baltimore’s hopes for a win. But they’re coming off a solid showing against the Bengals – an 11-point loss that felt a lot closer – in which the Ravens actually outgained Joe Burrow and Co., largely due to a stellar defensive performance.

However, Baltimore’s offense was also surprisingly functional with Anthony Brown under center and several key players resting. That may sound like damningly faint praise, but functional with a third-string QB and missing your two best playmakers is not bad for an offense that’s barely been functional all season.
