Bengals Claw Ahead: Live Updates from the Battle of Ohio

The Cincinnati Bengals are showing their claws early in their Week 5 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, leading 14-7 at halftime. This rivalry game is already proving to be a nail-biter, with both teams showcasing their offensive firepower.

First Quarter: A Slow Start

The first quarter was a bit of a snoozefest, with both teams struggling to find their rhythm. The Ravens got the ball first and started strong, driving into Bengals territory before a holding penalty stalled their momentum. Lamar Jackson, looking a bit shaky early, was sacked by Trey Hendrickson, leading to a punt.

The Bengals' offense, led by the ever-dangerous Joe Burrow, also had a slow start. Their first drive ended with a punt, but they managed to get on the scoreboard first thanks to a field goal from Evan McPherson.

Second Quarter: The Bengals Strike Twice

The second quarter belonged to the Bengals. After a series of exchanges, the Bengals finally broke through with a touchdown from Joe Mixon. The running back, known for his powerful runs, took a short pass from Burrow and turned it into a 15-yard touchdown, giving Cincinnati a 10-0 lead.

Baltimore fought back, with Jackson finding a wide-open Mark Andrews for a touchdown. The Ravens, though, couldn't seem to contain the Bengals' offense. Just before the half, Burrow found a wide-open Ja'Marr Chase deep downfield for a 45-yard touchdown, pushing the Bengals' lead to 14-7.

Halftime Thoughts

The first half of this game has been a rollercoaster ride! The Bengals, led by Burrow's stellar performance, look unstoppable right now. But the Ravens have shown they can score quickly and are still in this game. Let's see if they can make the necessary adjustments in the second half to overcome this deficit.
