FLACCO FINDS HIS GROOVE. Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco broke from his career struggles against the Bengals to throw for 270 yards and two touchdowns in the first meeting. But in seven career games versus Marvin Lewis’ Bengals, Flacco has six touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He’s also coming into this matchup off back-to-back subpar games. With Anquan Boldin out and so much attention on running back Ray Rice, the Ravens need more from Flacco.
