Twitter reacts to the Ravens’ 34-20 take down of the Bengals on Thursday Night Football
Injuries were unfortunately a key component of an AFC North showdown on Thursday Night Football in Week 11.
Early in the first quarter, the Baltimore Ravens lost tight end Mark Andrews for the season with an ankle injury. In the second quarter, quarterback Joe Burrow left the game with a wrist injury, effectively scuttling the Cincinnati Bengals’ night. It didn’t take any sweat for the Ravens to squelch backup Jake Browning and for Lamar Jackson to have his way with Cincinnati’s defense.
Twitter was full of takes and commentary surrounding the rollercoaster of a night with injuries. Here are some of the best.

People say Al Michaels has lost his fastball but he's still unparalleled at turning Baltimore into Bawldimoor

The Cincinnati Bengals is a weird team … they suck outside of couple of positions… but they always play inspired against good teams hell most of the time win the game …
