13. Jackson records four touchdowns in first half

Just when it seemed like there was reason to be concerned about the Baltimore Ravens, the team came through with a huge win on the road over the Pittsburgh Steelers in overtime.

Even if the argument can be made that Baltimore caught a break in overtime with that JuJu Smith-Schuster fumble, all that matters is the Ravens earned the win to move back into first place in the AFC North.

And if that wasn’t exciting enough, there’s every reason to believe that Baltimore will be able to improve to 4-2 on the season with the winless Cincinnati Bengals coming to town.

Rivalries tend to bring out the best in teams, but this season has been a disaster for the Bengals, and the chances of them pulling off a win Sunday seems highly unlikely to happen.

In fact, if the Ravens are lucky, Lamar Jackson could get off to a hot enough start where Baltimore won’t even need the quarterback late in the second half.

Moving on from Joe Flacco in the offseason seemed like a questionable decision at the time for the Ravens since it never hurts to have insurance, but Jackson is clearly the much-better option with his explosiveness.

With a favorable matchup against the Bengals, expect a strong outing from Jackson on offense.
