Ravens clinch playoffs with dominant win as Lamar Jackson breaks 1K rush mark again

When the Baltimore Ravens were floundering in November and early December, John Harbaugh delivered a one-word message emblazoned on T-shirts for his players: “Finish.”

With their dominant 38-3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, the Ravens finished their quest to make the postseason for the third straight season, even if this campaign was a lot harder than the 2019 version.

The Bengals finished the regular season 4-11-1. Backup quarterback Brandon Allen (6-of-21 passing, 48 yards, INT) struggled, throwing an end zone pick that put the final nail in Cincinnati’s season.

The Ravens were bit by COVID-19 limitations and injuries all season, and Lamar Jackson couldn’t mimic his MVP form for the entire season.
