Baltimore Ravens Form

Baltimore limped into the playoffs by losing three of their last four games to finish with a 10-7 record.

The Ravens offense stalled in Week 13 despite a 10-9 win against Denver, and it was in that game that they lost Lamar Jackson to an injury that could keep him out of this one.

The offense continued to stall over the final five weeks, although they did win two of their next three.

Baltimore sandwiched a 13-3 loss at Cleveland with a 16-14 victory at Pittsburgh and a 17-9 win at home to Atlanta.

The Ravens dropped their final two games of the regular season though, starting with a 16-13 loss at home to Pittsburgh.

Then, in their regular season finale, they were beaten 27-16 by tonight’s opponents, Cincinnati, on the road.

Cincinnati Bengals Form

Cincinnati hit red-hot form in the second half of the season to finish 12-4 and secure a return to the playoffs.

The Bengals appeared to be suffering a post-Super Bowl hangover as they went 4-4 through their first eight game.

However, a 42-21 win at home to Carolina before the bye week proved to be the spark they needed.

Cincy rattled off eight consecutive wins to wrap up the regular season and go into the playoffs in excellent form.

They returned to action with a couple of road wins at Pittsburgh (37-30) and Tennessee (20-16), and then backed them up with an impressive 27-24 home win against Kansas City.

The wins kept coming for the Bengals as they then beat Cleveland 23-10 at home, before heading out on the road to down Tampa Bay 34-23 and New England 22-18.

Their Week 17 clash with Buffalo was then cancelled, but Cincinnati were able to extend their streak as they completed the regular season with a 27-16 win against Baltimore.
