Ravens vs. Bengals: Key matchups for Wild-Card weekend

are preparing to face the Cincinnati Bengals (-8.5) for the third time this season, this time on Sunday Night Football of Wild-Card weekend. The Ravens — still without quarterback Lamar Jackson — are massive underdogs on the road with the Bengals favored by 8.5 points, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. Baltimore, with third-string undrafted rookie quarterback Anthony Brown starting, kept their Week 18 contest against Cincinnati closer than many expected on the back of a strong defensive performance.

On top of the key matchups I wrote about in Week 18, the Ravens will need a number of other individual victories on Sunday night in order to pull the massive upset against a divisional rival.
