Cincinnati Bengals: We want to play well this season.

The last 5 weeks of last season were heavy, the team suffered a lot and barely won 2 out of 5 games, they lost to Browns, Steelers and Bears.

Against the Ravens last year they played twice, in the first and last week, they lost at home 0-20 but they won at Baltimore 31-27.
Andy Dalton will start tonight against the Ravens, after having had a good performance on the road against the Colts in a difficult game that he knew how to try to get out of the difficulties. Even the numbers for Dalton are 243 yards in passes, 2 touchdowns and a single interception. At home the Bengals finished 4-4 last season, but at home they are 9-1-1 ATS since November last year.

Before this game the Ravens won against the Bills, it was a game totally dominated by the Ravens in each of the quarters. For this game against the Bengals, the team is not favorite, they just have a line of -1.0 which indicates that it will be a tight game from the beginning.
Joe Flacco has had a good start to the season, 236 yards passing, 3 completions to touchdown and zero interceptions. The problem of Flacco is not having enough support from the offensive despite having good players the team has always had trouble scoring points, last season they had an average of 4.7 for each quarter.
