Bengals Vs. Ravens: Ray Rice Gives Baltimore Two-Score Lead, Jerome Simpson Gets It Back

The Baltimore Ravens are slowly but surely putting themselves in position to improve their playoff standing. RB Ray Rice ran in a seven-yard touchdown to give Baltimore a 13-0 edge against the Cincinnati Bengals with about 17 minutes to go.

But the Bengals responded with their first scoring drive of the game, with WR Jerome Simpson following up on last week’s 124-yard, two-touchdown performance by grabbing an 11-yard score from QB Carson Palmer. Simpson has 10 catches on 12 targets for 89 yards — if not for his fumble earlier, he’d be a clear candidate for Cincy’s player of the game.

The Ravens now lead 13-7 with about 12 minutes to go. The Bengals have outgained the Ravens, but have also doubled up Baltimore’s turnover total. Palmer threw a second pick to Ed Reed to supplement his earlier INT.
