It was over when ...
Cedric Benson eclipsed the century mark on the ground for the second time this season vs. the
Ravens.

Bengals DE Jonathan Fanene sacked Ravens QB Joe Flacco on fourth-and-25 with 1:50 remaining and Cincinnati up 10 points.
Game ball
Bengals RB Cedric Benson rushed 34 times for 117 yards and a touchdown. With the effort, he joined Jerome Bettis as the only players to have 100-plus rushing yards against Baltimore twice in a single season.
Key Stat
Without the ball for much of the game, the Ravens never established an offensive rhythm. The Bengals dominated time of possession, doubling the Ravens (40:00-20:00). All three of Cincinnati's first-half scoring drives were 10 plays or more, which meant Baltimore had the ball for just 8:26 at halftime.
