1. The Ravens Handle Business Against The Bengals

The stage where the Bengals are at in their roster construction is too early to have much of a chance against a team like the Ravens.

With an inability to stop Lamar Jackson, the Bengals will be in for a long day on defense. Cincinnati simply doesn’t have the firepower to be able to set the edge, gum up the middle, and stay disciplined in pass coverage. Jackson will feast on that.

Meanwhile, the Ravens will have little issue creating pressure against Joe Burrow in the pocket—- causing him to have to make magic happen. He will have a strong outing but just not enough to beat a tough Baltimore team.

The Bengals will come up short in their effort of taking down the reigning AFC North champions. However, Cincinnati will show the Ravens that taking them as an easy win will no longer be the case.
