CINCINNATI — The Bengals fell to 4-10 on the season and were officially eliminated from playoff contention on Sunday afternoon when they lost to the Ravens 24-0 at Paycor Stadium. It was the first time they've been shutout with Joe Burrow at quarterback. Ja'Marr Chase finished with 10 catches for 132 yards.

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is blaming himself for Cincinnati's 24-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Bengals were eliminated from the playoff race.

For the fourth time this season, the Bengals did not score a touchdown in the first three quarters. And by the start of the fourth quarter, many of the fans who braved the 10-degree temperature at kickoff with a wind chill of minus-1 had left their snow-dusted seats for warmer accommodations.

The Ravens (7-7) crushed the Bengals, 24-0, to keep their playoff hopes alive and secure their first shutout since 2018.

The Bengals didn’t remove the snow from the seats. The relevant rule clearly requires them to do so.

Joe Burrow suffered an apparent late hit on a play with less than two minutes left in the half at Paycor Stadium. While a borderline play, Dre'Mont Jones proceeded to taunt the Bengals after the hit on Burrow. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor argued with officials that it should’ve been called a late hit.

Former running back Zack Moss called out the Cincinnati Bengals in a reply to a tweet criticizing the team's effort to clear ice and snow from the seats at Paycor Stadium ahead of the team's 24-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in NFL Week 15. "Been telling people easily the worst franchise in sports!" Moss tweeted Sunday night.

If you think the Bengals need changes at the top and on the sideline, the most important voice in the locker room, QB Joe Burrow, disagrees.

A Ravens player said what most Bengals fans were probably thinking about the team during Sunday's horrendous showing.
