Bengals vs. Ravens Post-Game Recap

Joe Burrow’s 56 passing attempts were the second-most in a game of his career, five fewer than his career-high 61 in Week 2 of his rookie season with Cleveland. It was also the second-most attempts by a quarterback this season, behind Atlanta quarterback Kirk Cousins ​​’58 in Week 3. Burrow finished the night with 2,253 career passing attempts, surpassing Jeff Blake (2,221) for the fifth-most in the history of Bengal.

Burrow’s season-high 34 completions tied his sixth-highest total in a game. It was also his seventh career game with more than four touchdown passes (third this season).

Burrow’s 428 passing yards were the fourth most in a game in his career, and marked his sixth career 400-yard passing performance. He completed a pass to seven different receivers that night.

Another opening drive TD

Burrow and the offense put together a 12-play, 70-yard touchdown drive to open the game, capped by Chase Brown’s fifth rushing score of the season. Burrow completed five of eight passes for 61 yards on the drive, including third-down conversions to Ja’Marr Chase and Andrei Iosivas.

The Bengals have found the end zone on their first offensive possession in each of their past three games and four of the past five, with the outlier coming in Week 7 in Cleveland when Charlie Jones gave them an early lead with a 100-yard return on the opening kickoff of the game.

Brown now has seven touchdowns in his past seven games (five rushing, two receiving).

Hudson’s first of the year puts Bengals ahead

Burrow found Tanner Hudson in the end zone with 30 seconds left in the second quarter, giving Cincinnati a 14-7 lead heading into halftime. It was Hudson’s first touchdown of the season and second of his career.

The Bengals started the possession with 4:02 left in the quarter. On the seventh play of the drive, Burrow threw what was originally ruled an interception into the end zone, but upon review of the play it was ruled incomplete. Two snaps later, Burrow hit Jermaine Burton on a third-and-5 to move the sticks and set up a first-and-goal.
