Ravens control their playoff destiny. 

It's all about controlling what you can control. 

Obviously you expect to win.
Go play well all 3 phases.

I hope we can get Smith and Peters back on the field.  I also think Harbs will be on the special team guys this week.  The game would have looked like a blow out had we not made 2 big mistakes on ST.

Please no repeats of the Tyler Boyd debacle a few years back. Just go in and dominate a 3rd game in a row against inferior competition.

As much as I'd like to see Lamar get the @92 rushing yards he needs for 1,000, I'd rather see him on the sideline cheering Huntley on by late 3d quarter.

I think all the upsets around the league point out that any team can be dangerous.  Ask the Browns, Steelers, Rams etc.  The Ravens have been taking care of their business.  I expect the Bengals to be up for the game but I expect the Ravens to win by double digits.  All the injuries are a concern though.

Seems about right.  I think the Ravens cover.

If we play our game we win easy as the Bengals don’t have Burrow and their line sucks.

The Bengals aren't devoid of talent and love playing spoiler. It might be an easy game but I hope they don't prepare for it like it will be.

Tee Higgins is a really good young receiver, and so is Boyd. A.J. Green still exists. Prepare for them like you would a playoff team.

I'll go with a 10 point win.

I think the Ravens have protected Jimmy and Peters the last few games.  I think we will need them this week.  Yannick, Snead and JK all got dinged last week.  Hopefully they all can go this week.

Nah, not this time. I originally predicted they'd beat us weeks ago, but when they lost Burrow I just don't think it's happening.

I think it would take a complete choke to lose this one. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen.

I would love to see Peters and Smith get healthy. Obviously, we could use them this week but if another game on the sidelines gets them right for the wild card round, then let's roll with that. We'll just need to protect the back end of the defense, maybe not blitz as much, drop the LBs into zone or bracket coverage on the outside.

Skura has been such a big upgrade at C. Hopefully hes a go. I feel like the only way we likely lose is on some stupid stuff like bad snaps again.

I think Peters plays this Sunday, but I suspect Jimmy sits.  The Bengals can throw the ball, I do not feel good about the matchups without Peters.  I also think the Ravens defense elevates a few levels when they are attacking.
