Why Joe Burrow and the Bengals’ Biggest Test Against Baltimore Could Change Everything
The Bengals season isn’t quite over, but it is highly unlikely they are able to make the postseason. As of today, they are the 12th seed, and the next team to be eliminated from the postseason opportunity. Essentially, the team has its back against the wall. They lost a heartbreaker last week against the Bills and it was unfortunate because they could be 5-8 and just a game back of the Ravens. Joe Burrow was intercepted on back-to-back passes, and that significantly swung the momentum in the game. For a game played in the snow, it showed just how good the Bengals offense can be with Burrow under center, putting up 34 points. However, it also showed what we have known all season, the Bengals’ defense struggles to stop anyone. The Bengals are the only team in football that is allowing over 30 points per game now, and they are allowing two more points than the Cowboys. They are allowing the most yards to opponents as well at 410.5 per game, which is 25 more yards per game than the next closest, the Giants.Â
