A surprising stat has emerged that highlights how Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has consistently dominated Cincinnati Bengals’ Joe Burrow in their matchups. This trend raises questions about Burrow’s ability to perform against Jackson, who seems to be his kryptonite on the field.
In a thrilling matchup against Baltimore last week, Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase showcased their remarkable chemistry, but it ultimately wasn’t enough to secure a victory for the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite a valiant effort, the Bengals fell short, losing 35-34 and dropping to a disappointing 4-6 record. Burrow threw for 428 yards and four touchdowns, while Chase delivered a stellar performance with 11 catches, three touchdowns, and a staggering 264 receiving yards.
The game saw the Bengals take an early lead, going up 21-7 midway through the third quarter. However, a crucial turnover changed the momentum when Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey stripped the ball from Bengals running back Chase Brown, leading to a 21-0 run by Baltimore. Burrow and Chase quickly responded, connecting on a 70-yard touchdown pass that tied the game at 28, demonstrating their ability to rise to the occasion.
As the game progressed, both players continued to perform at an elite level, with Burrow leaning heavily on Chase during critical moments. A late touchdown from Burrow to Chase brought the Bengals within striking distance, but a failed two-point conversion attempt dashed their hopes for a comeback victory. Burrow expressed no regrets about the decision to go for the win, highlighting the team’s understanding of their situation.
Cincinnati’s struggles this season are perplexing, especially considering Burrow and Chase’s impressive individual performances. With Burrow ranking second in Total QBR and Chase among the league leaders in receiving yards, the team’s record seems incongruous with their talents.
