Lamar Jackson almost flawless as Ravens rout Lions 38-6 in a matchup of division leaders

Kevin Zeitler, a guard for the Cincinnati Bengals in the past, is presently with the Baltimore Ravens.

This weekend, the Arizona Cardinals and Ravens will square off.

Zeitler would become the third former Bengal to defeat all 32 NFL teams if Baltimore defeats Arizona.

Zeitler would become one of three former Bengals to accomplish this feat, along with Andrew Whitworth and Domata Peko.

The Bengals selected Zeitler late in the first round of the 2012 NFL Draft.

Zeitler began all 16 games for Cincinnati in his first season and wore orange and black for the first five seasons of his career.

Zeitler started 71 of 72 games as a right guard for the Bengals in his five seasons there.

After leaving the Bengals, the guard moved up north to play for the Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, and Baltimore Ravens in 2021.

Zeitler would become the third offensive lineman to accomplish the victories with the Ravens’ victory over the Cardinals.

CLARA, Santa — When the 49ers play the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 8, the quarterback is the player to watch out for the most.

That’s where. That was easy.

Sadly, there is too much uncertainty for us to predict whether it will be Sam Darnold making his first start for his new team or Brock Purdy making his comeback after suffering a concussion and two straight losses.

Following the NFL’s return-to-play procedure, Purdy and the team seem to be headed in the right path. However, at this point in the week, we won’t predict his status for Sunday’s game.

We have therefore chosen to concentrate on other positions as the 49ers prepare for their bye week and play a crucial game against the Bengals (3-3) in the meantime.

The top five 49ers players to watch are not quarterbacks:

On Monday night, Charvarius Ward already had one interception. And right before the first half ended, it appeared as though he would land another.

Rather, rookie receiver Jordan Addison of the Minnesota Vikings outmuscled Ward for the ball, managed to stay upright, and completed the crucial 60-yard catch-and-run score.

Among Ward’s few shortcomings this season is that play. But when Ja’Marr Chase visits Levi’s Stadium on Sunday, the task becomes much more challenging.

Ward praised Chase, saying, “He can do everything.” He is able to quickly play the game and line up in the slot or outside. He’s pretty good [when the ball is] in the air. He’s pretty adept at running routes. He becomes a runner whenever he has the ball in his hands.

He is a genuine top receiver. I hold great admiration for him.

By far the Bengals’ best offensive threat is Chase. In six games, he has 50 receptions for 556 yards and three touchdowns.

Joe Burrow of the Bengals will likely target Chase at least a dozen times, putting Ward and the 49ers defensive secondary to the test frequently.

4. DT Armstead, Arik

The 49ers signed defensive lineman Arik Armstead to a big contract in 2020 before making significant financial commitments to Javon Hargrave and Nick Bosa.
