But ⦠PAYCOR STADIUM GAMES RAVENS: A meeting between teams who have won five of the last six AFC North titles. In the six quarters this past season that Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow dueled Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, the odds-on favorite for 2023 NFL MVP, the Bengals and Ravens were knotted at 34. In the last three seasons, Burrow is 4-2 against Baltimore in six full games, with the losses by a combined five points.

"I don't see the core group dying off. You always have certain guys and maybe those guys were meant to be those types of guys," Reader says. "They're drafted, they're here in important positions and that's going to be freaking awesome for years to come. There's really no core guys leaving." He looks at quarterback Joe Burrow, his linebackers Germaine Pratt and Logan Wilson, his ends, Trey Hendrickson and Sam Hubbard. "Joe, Germaine, Logan. You've got all these guys. Trey, Sam. These guys are still here. Teddy K is now a core guy. They've been through it. There'll be people here for a long time that are a part of this. Young guys. CTB. (Cam Taylor-Britt). Guys who played and are now a part of the core. You can't ever change that."

He's not sure because it's still less than two months after surgery, but he thinks he'll be throwing by then after the Nov. 20 procedure to repair a ligament. He thinks it's going to be another couple of months before he can grip to lift weights. But other than that, Burrow has been full bore while his teammates have been in the thick of their playoff bid. "Lifting legs, doing a lot of core, doing the upper body where we can," Burrow said. "It's tough without being able to grab or do anything like that. But we're modifying it in ways that keep me in good physical shape."

"What was most important was winning this game. Having a winning season for Zac," said left tackle Orlando Brown. "For me, personally, that was really important. Just because he's an amazing coach. It's been a tough year for all of us. Especially him. Having to deal with the quarterback change, and the guys we lost. "Joe (Burrow) starting the season hurt ⦠There are so many things that go into that. I've got a ton of respect for him and his family and everything he's done for me and my family."
