Cincinnati Bengals 34, Baltimore Ravens 26

At first I had a hard time believing it was happening. At work the game was blacked out from the NFL Sunday Ticket because, we think, it was a home game in Cincinnati (only an hour or so away) and it may not have sold out in time. So we settled for seeing score updates.

Nevertheless, I am excited that the Bengals won in the Jungle. It was an obviously sweet victory for Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis, who helped build the Ravens defense that went to the Superbowl in 2000.
