00:00 What is up Baltimore Ravens fans?
00:05 It's Indy Cartham with your Baltimore Ravens Daily Blitz for Thursday.
00:09 It is game day, game night.
00:13 Primetime Bengals on Thursday night football on Prime Video.
00:17 What could be better other than if it wasn't on Prime Video?
00:23 You may get one of the rare must see, must watch exciting Thursday night football games
00:30 after usually these games are something to be missed and not very exciting.
00:36 But tonight will be different as you've got the AFC North matchup Ravens versus the Bengals.
00:44 The Ravens of course 7-3 leading that AFC North.
00:49 The Bengals 5-4 by the way for the second I think or third straight year they're 5-4.
00:56 Third straight year that they've been 5-4 and of course the previous two years they've
01:03 been 5-4.
01:04 They have ended up winning the AFC North.
01:06 By the way, last time the Ravens led in week 10 led the AFC North.
01:15 Something happened because they've led the AFC North four out of the last five seasons
01:22 at week 10 mark.
01:24 Of course the only time in that span they have won the division was 2019 in Lamar Jackson's
01:31 MVP season.
01:33 Lots to play for here, lots on the line.
01:35 You've got of course Jackson versus Burrow.
01:40 You've got the Ravens leading the division again with the tendency to give up that AFC
01:47 North lead as the season progresses here.
01:50 Hopefully that doesn't happen again this year.
01:53 A win on Thursday night would mean a two and a half game lead over the Bengals who would
02:00 fall to last place in the AFC North by the way.
02:04 It just five and five would also mean that the Bengals were at 500.
02:12 This game is going to mean a lot going forward to determine the division crown I think as
02:19 we get later on in the season.
02:24 The Bengals have been up and down this season.
02:26 They started the season 0-2 which has been their tendency.
02:30 That's no surprise really.
02:32 Burrow was hurt very early in the year after suffering that calf injury in training camp.
02:39 You just wonder what the Bengals season might have looked like if not for that calf injury
02:47 suffered by Burrow.
02:49 You know what, Ravens fans are used to dealing with quarterback injuries too.
02:52 It's not like Lamar has been the picture of health over the past several years.
02:58 It is what it is.
02:59 The teams are here now.
03:01 It is Thursday night matchup.
03:04 It's prime time.
03:05 Lots of people watching.
03:06 It should be a very exciting game.
03:10 The Ravens of course coming off that atrocious heart-wrenching loss to the Browns last week.
03:19 It's a short week for them coming off of the 33-31 last second field goal.
03:26 By the way, I think six games last week ended on game-winning field goals as time expired.
03:33 I think that's the most ever in the history of the NFL.
03:36 Unfortunately, the Ravens on the losing end of one of those occurrences.
03:43 Everybody pretty much seems healthy for the Ravens.
03:47 We know that there has been some nagging injuries going on.
03:53 We've got Duvernay still dealing with that hamstring.
03:57 He did not practice yesterday.
04:00 He should be good to go for the game though.
04:02 Marlon Humphrey hasn't practiced all week in anticipation of the Thursday night matchup.
04:07 There is no game designation for him.
04:10 He could play Morgan Moses and John Simpson both on the offensive line were full participants
04:17 in practice on Thursday.
04:19 Linebacker Trenton Simpson who suffered a concussion in the game against the Browns.
04:27 No designation for him.
04:29 Ronnie Stanley was also hurt.
04:32 He did not practice all week.
04:34 Kyle Van Noy suffered an injury.
04:37 He was a full participant as was Darrell Worley, cornerback in practice for Wednesday.
04:47 He was full practice on Tuesday as well.
04:52 We've only got three listed out for the Bengals.
04:56 Wide receiver T. Higgins, defensive end Sam Hubbard, and receiver Andre Iasovas.
05:03 Questionable for the game is wide receiver Charlie Jones.
05:05 The Bengals a little bit banged up in the wideout area there.
05:11 We've got Jamar Chase, so I think the Bengals will be focused on him and Burrow for sure.
05:19 You've got Ravens.
05:20 You've got Bengals.
05:23 You've got Thursday night football.
05:25 Prime time matchup as we mentioned on prime video.
05:28 If you're a betting man, the spread here, Ravens three and a half.
05:33 Your money lines, Bengals plus 155.
05:37 Ravens minus 200.
05:38 Your total, you're over or under 46 and a half.
05:40 That has moved quite a bit.
05:42 I think it started out at 43 and a half.
05:46 We know which way the betting is going.
05:49 They're going to move that to try to steer it the way that they want it to go there in
05:54 Vegas.
05:55 Ravens, Bengals, this should be a good one tonight.
05:57 You guys make sure and enjoy the game.
06:00 We will be back probably post game.
06:02 I'll do a little quick hits post game.
06:04 Hopefully a victorious quick hits post game.
