The Baltimore Ravens suffered a 27-16 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18, pushing their final 2022 record to 10-7. Baltimore rested many key players in the game, and were without starting quarterback Lamar Jackson due to a knee injury he suffered in Week 13.
After the game, Bengals players and fans took exception to how the Ravens played, accusing them of “dirty play”. When asked about the notion, head coach John Harbaugh said that his players played a “clean game”, mentioning that millions of fans watched the game and saw the same thing.
