Cowart laid the touchdown with Baltimore at –7, arguing that even a Ravens offense stuck in neutral during its current five-game win streak should thrive against what he calls “one of the worst defenses of all time.” The Bengals rank dead last in EPA per play, success-rate allowed, and red-zone TD rate. Cowart expects Todd Monken to lean on early-down runs to stay on schedule—an area where Cincinnati allows 5.3 yards per carry—and predicts Lamar Jackson will finally produce a crooked number on the scoreboard in a division matchup the Ravens “have to have” to maintain AFC North control.
