Bengals vs. Ravens result, live updates: Cincinnati and Baltimore tied 7-7 in the second quarter on Thursday Night Football

A little over a month ago, the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals played one of the best games of this NFL season. The Ravens’ 41-38 overtime win in Cincinnati moved Baltimore to 3-2 and the league’s top offense was in full swing. Lamar Jackson threw for 348 yards and four touchdown passes while the ground game totaled 175 yards. Not to be outdone, Joe Burrow was phenomenal in the loss, throwing for 392 yards and five scores and one interception. Bengals kicker Evan McPherson missed a 53-yard field goal in overtime, allowing the Ravens to win on a Justin Tucker field goal.

This loss dropped Cincinnati to 1-4 on the season, but as they have done several times in recent years, the Bengals have bounced back and enter today’s game at 4-5. They need a win to advance back into the AFC playoffs image. Baltimore comes into the game at 6-3 and needs a win to keep pace with the Steelers at the top of the AFC North.
