After snapping a two-losing streak last week with an overtime win over division rival Pittsburgh Steelers, the Baltimore Ravens got another win over a division opponent. The Ravens got a 23-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals to improve to 4-2 on the young season.
The game started off with a 92-yard kickoff return from Bengals return man Brandon Wilson on the opening kickoff of the game. The Ravens would answer by scoring two first quarter rushing touchdowns by second-year quarterback Lamar Jackson and two-time Pro Bowl running back Mark Ingram respectively to take a 14-7 lead going into the second quarter.
Those would be the only two touchdowns for the Ravens in the game as their remaining points came off of three field goals.
The Bengals would score off a two-yard touchdown run by long time quarterback Andy Dalton with 1:28 remaining in the game but were unable to recover the onside kick on the ensuing kickoff leading to their loss.
Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson finished with 236 passing yards on 21/33 passing and 152 rushing yards on 19 carries and a rushing touchdowns. Ravens running back Mark Ingram finished with 52 yards on 13 carries and a rushing touchdown.
