Halftime analysis of Ravens’ Wild Card matchup against the Bengals

The Ravens fought hard against the Bengals in the first half of the AFC North Wild Card matchup

The Baltimore Ravens are fighting for their season heading into halftime in their Wild Card matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Though inconsistent early in the game, the Ravens’ offense found traction in the second quarter and coupled with the excellent play of their defense, Baltimore was able to jump out to a lead just before the halftime whistle.
