I see the Bengals have demoted Carlos Dunlap and he will not start against the Ravens. 

Probably needed, he has basically done nothing except take about 2 steps, stop and try to jump and knock down passes, practically no pressure on the QB.

I see the Ravens are 13.5 right now.  I am not even sure I would pick the Bengals to beat the spread in this one.  

If nothing else, this game will show the Bengals exactly where they are at. 

The Bengals have covered every game thus far. These things do have a tendency to even themselves out, so there is that.

I am seeing 12.5 to 13 now so someone likes the Bengals.

Well, that is against the spread, not straight-up!

Bengals won the toss and elected to receive interesting. Hope it works with a score to start the game.

Joe should have ran there.

Green just quit on that route which aided into the cause of that interception.  Somebody needs to have a talk with Mr. Green.  If he don't want to play, he should have retired.  He got plenty of dead money over the last two years from the Bengals.

All Ravens all the time so far.

Ravens 17 Bengals 0

Zero chance for Burrow so far. Zac Taylor is not doing anything to help him either.

EXACTLY!!  You know the O line stinks, go max protect a bunch!!!

For a coach who's supposed to be a great offensive mind, Zac Taylor shows no creativity.

Max protect also doesn’t help, if receivers can’t get open. The scheme they use does not ever do anything to confuse the defense. 
 

It was time to move on from Marvin. However, the one thing Marvin did well was build his teams to play in the division. This team is not built to play in the AFC North.

That penalty was a complete joke. Jackson is running the ball, pulls up on the sideline to throw it and Dunlap pushes Lamar in the shoulder almost immediately after the ball leaves his hand.
