Bengals at Ravens: Week 5 Madden Simulation

We simulate week 5 of the Bengals at Ravens to try to predict the outcome of the week five game

Bengals at Ravens Madden Highlights

Joe Burrow got the first win of his NFL career! That was awesome and while it is a great sign of things to come it is likely not a sign of things to come this coming week. The Bengals this coming week are facing off against one of the best teams in the NFL in the Baltimore Ravens. Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow should have a great rivalry for years to come, but no one will fault Burrow for losing this one. If the Bengals are able to pull this one out though it will be because of Burrow and hopefully phenomenal play.

So with that in mind let’s take a look at the Madden sim to see what it predicts for week 5.

The Bengals offense does not get off to a great start against the Ravens starting with the ball and quickly having to punt. The Ravens have to punt and the Bengals do too following the Ravens. After three punts though the Bengals defense finally starts to fold and the Ravens are able to drive down the field and score on a long Lamar Jackson run.

Following the touchdown the Bengals receive the ball and begin to drive down the field and actually get a good drive going, but end up punting from the 45 yard line. Following that the Ravens receive the ball and drive all the way down the field before Lamar Jackson hits Mark Andrews for a touchdown.
