Although the Bengals are a tough team, Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco seems excited to take on a familiar foe.
"We're used to these guys," hobbled Baltimore quarterback Joe Flacco said. "They're a good defense. They have been for a few years now. It's always a good test to play a division opponent in their place. They have a lot to play for. We have a lot to play for. It's going to be a good game, a good test."
While Baltimore needs a win and some help to get into the postseason and defend last season's title, the Bengals are potentially playing for a No. 2 seed. If they can top the Ravens, and the Bills are able to upset New England, Cincy will earn themselves a first-round bye.
"We want to defend home and make sure we win," cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones said. "If it was my choice, I don't want Baltimore to make it. We've got to make sure we defend the house and play all four quarters."
Quarterback Andy Dalton and wide receiver A.J. Green have a chance at franchise regular season records in passing and receiving yardage, but Green isn't focused one iota on those historical marks.
"The goals are good, but we're fighting for a bigger picture," Green said. "When I'm done with this game, maybe it will (mean something), but right now I'm trying to continue to get better."
