The Cincinnati Bengals weren’t going to give Lamar Jackson a shot to beat them in overtime.
After Ja’Marr Chase scored his third touchdown of the game with 38 seconds left during a monster night for him and Joe Burrow, Bengals coach Zac Taylor didn’t hesitate to call for the 2-point conversion. Jackson was awesome on Thursday night, as he has been all season. The Bengals would take their chance on one play from the 2-yard line rather than whatever might happen in overtime.
It was probably the correct call, but it didn’t work out. Burrow threw incomplete to Tanner Hudson on the 2-point conversion and the Ravens held on to a thrilling 35-34 win.
