Flacco Beware

NBC’s “Football Night in America” analysts Rodney Harrison and Tony Dungy believe the Bengals have a real chance of pulling off an upset over the Ravens in Sunday’s regular-season finale.

One of the keys to stopping the Bengals from pulling out a win will be the Ravens’ ability to protect quarterback Joe Flacco.

In ESPN’s stock watch, the Bengals’ pass rush is on the rise. They rank third in the NFL in sacks with 44.

“Few defenses have pressured quarterbacks like Cincinnati recently,” wrote Jamison Hensley. “Over the past three games, the Bengals have recorded 13 sacks and 29 quarterback hits.

“The problem for offenses is that you can’t shut down the pass rush by shutting down one player. During this three-game span, 11 players have recorded at least a half sack. The only player with more than 1.5 sacks is defensive end Jonathan Fanene (three sacks).”
