Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said he has to play "damn near perfect" in his team's home game Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, noting the need to be aggressive early in order to avoid falling behind given how their AFC North rival plays on offense.
The Ravens' last two games back up Burrow's words.
Last Sunday, the Ravens put the Buffalo Bills in an early hole that they never escaped from. Derrick Henry ran for two first-half touchdowns en route to 209 total yards as a 21-3 halftime lead made way for a 35-10 win.
