Burrow Seeks Redemption Game Versus Baltimore Ravens
Heading into their weekend showdown versus the Baltimore Ravens, star quarterback Joe Burrow believes that they have what it takes to steal a win against one of the hottest teams in the NFL this season. However, it will take a lot of impressive strides from the team if they are actually going to pull off an impressive run to win against the road team this weekend.
One of the biggest rivalries are slated to unfold in Sunday Night Football with the Bengals hosting the Ravens at home for the first time this season. So far, this is expected to be quite a show to look out for for many fans as the rivalry takes shape for the 58th time. Joe Burrow seeks to also break the tough skid that has engulfed the Bengals’ hopes of establishing a strong start to the season.
So make sure you don’t miss out on the big game ahead! Burrow is raring to go and prove his worth, and fans can expect him to come up with a massive touchdown game and score some impressive passes and eclipse a total of 20 made passes in the game.
Redemption Game Coming Up
The Bengals haven’t really struggled to score this season, managing to put up 25, 33, and 34 points on their last three games, with two of those leading to losses. The big reason for that is their lack of defensive growth – failing to generate stops and convert opportunities over their games. So far, Burrow knows that he is expected to play at a high level if they are going to pull off a win this time around.
"You've got to be aggressive out the gate," Burrow said of facing the Ravens this time around. "You can't let the game come to you because your possessions are going to be so limited. I'm gonna have to play damn-near perfect. That's how I'm preparing, so it's an exciting opportunity. We have to. Otherwise, they're just gonna eat the clock up, run the ball. We know how well they run it. So we have to start fast and give ourselves as many opportunities as we can."
Cincinnati is entering Week 5 with a much bigger purpose – to get back on their winning track after starting 1-3 in their first four games. Burrow claims that this is definitely a big game for them, and it is expected that they will have to bring everything they’ve got to pull off a win.
A Rivalry to Savor for Fans
This rivalry between the Bengals and the Ravens is one of the biggest feuds in the NFL. The Ravens hold a 30-27 record in all 57 games, with the Ravens winning two of the last five games they’ve met – going up against each other four times in 2023, which includes one playoff game as well.
For Burrow, this game is definitely going to be defined as a standard for their start to the 2024 season – which was hyped to be a promising run after Burrow returned from a freak injury that kept him out of the previous season.
"It's a big game, it's a big game. We know what our record is," said Burrow, whose Bengals were swept in the season series by Baltimore last year. "We know the opportunities we have going forward, but it's our first divisional opponent. We're 1-3. We need to get this one. it's a big game for the Bengals."
At this point, Burrow seeks to make the most of their chances and show that they won’t bow down to the Ravens so easily, which makes this game even a more fun clash to look out for.
