The Bengals defense not only stopped the Ravens, but they set up the offense 2 yards from the end zone. Joseph Ossai had a strip-sack of Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, and defensive end Cedric Johnson caught the ball and ran it back 3 yards to the Baltimore 2 before Jackson tackled him.

Shedeur Sanders didn’t try to make his first NFL start into something it wasn’t. He opened his postgame comments with the same relaxed tone he carried all week. “I’m here once again. How y’all doing? Chilling, relaxing, thankful.” That was the mood. No nerves. No panic.
