AFC North’s Fierce Rivalries Set the Stage for an Unforgettable Showdown
The Bengals started great this season with a win over the Browns in the season opener in Cleveland. In the next game, even after Joe Burrow went down, the team was able to pull out a win over the Jaguars. Since that game, the team has done essentially nothing positive. They played fairly well against the Lions, but it wasn’t a close loss, falling by 13. Last week, in the first game with Flacco, they ended up covering the spread against the Packers in Green Bay. I wouldn’t say that it was a great game, the team got very little sustained offense, but they were at least looking like a bit of life had been breathed into them. Flacco went 29-for-45 with two touchdown passes, and he was clearly looking to get his primary receiver, JaMarr Chase, involved in the game. With a guy new to the club (Flacco) they weren’t asking him to hold back at all. I expect much of the same here. You need to attack as much as possible if you want any hope for your season when Burrow does become available again.Â
