The Ravens (2-0) visited the Bengals (0-2) for the third time in 2023 on Sunday and they broke a two-game losing streak against Cincinnati by beating the supposed AFC North favorites 27-24 in Week 2.
Lamar Jackson led the Flock and the Bengals didn't have a clue where the blows were coming from. Lamar threw a couple of touchdown passes and rushed for a whole bunch of yards, and the Bengals are now facing more than long odds to make the postseason.

Joe Burrow aggravated a calf injury that kept him out of training camp and hampered his game, which was already bad enough without the injury impacting it. The Ravens were superior from start to finish, never trailed in the Jungle, and left the Bengals season looking like one more geared toward getting a good draft position than clinching a playoff berth.
Two players of the Ravens, Lamar Jackson and Mark Andrews, spoke at the podium after the game following head coach John Harbaugh. Here is everything they had to say about the Week 2 win over the Cincinnati Bengals and all of what happened on the field of Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati.
