Welcome into the lounge presented by Draft Kings.

I'm Ryan Mink here with Garrett Downing.

Following the Ravens 24 to 0 shutout win over the Cincinnati Bengals,

huge win for the Ravens to pull them back to 7 and 7,

keep them very much alive in the AFC North Chase,

as well as their first shutout since 2018

and the first shutout of Joe Burroughs career.

It was a dominant, dominant defensive day for them.

No, it's out there, Garrett.

Yeah, this was a big, big time win for the Ravens.

Obviously, from a standing standpoint,

the Ravens were in about as close to a must-win situation

as you could find yourself in,

and they were able to come out of Cincinnati with a victory.

I also was really encouraged because this was the best game the Ravens had played all season. John Harbaugh said that after the game, and it felt that way watching it. The defense was lights out. It was easily the best game that the defense has played, but from an overall standpoint, it was complimentary football. And like, this is kind of what you wanted to see. You want to win, of course.

You want to win by any means necessary.

That's first and foremost.

But you also want to see the Ravens at this point of the season.

When you're trying to claw your way into the playoffs, you want to see them putting things together and playing at a level that it's going to take to get into the playoffs and then maybe win a game

or two or more if you get there.

Like that's, you want them to be able to put things together and play at the level that's

necessary going into the postseason.
