THE BALTIMORE RAVENS (KIND OF)

The Ravens once again built a huge lead against an AFC North rival. This time, they didn’t blow it. Four days after an awful loss to the Browns, Baltimore eased past the Bengals, 34-20. While it’s a massive win, and the Baltimore offense looked awesome, the biggest storyline was the injuries.

Joe Burrow left in the second quarter and didn’t return due to a right wrist injury — we’ll get to that in a bit — shortly after Mark Andrews suffered what’s feared to be a season-ending ankle injury on the opening drive.

As for the game details …

• Lamar Jackson threw touchdown passes to Nelson Agholor and Rashod Bateman, plus, he passed Randall Cunningham for fourth-most career yards rushing by a quarterback.
• Gus Edwards scored twice on the ground and now has nine touchdowns rushing in his last five games.
• Odell Beckham Jr. had 116 yards receiving — his most in over four years — before leaving late with a shoulder injury. 
• The defense was stout before Burrow left and dominant after and finished with five sacks.

👍 Honorable mentions

• The Lakers have interest if the Bulls trade Zach LaVine, among others.
• Jalon Daniels will return to Kansas, and Jaxson Dart will return to Ole Miss.
• Mack Brown will return to North Carolina, ending retirement…
