The story, neutrally told

Mixed · 2The Cincinnati Bengals beat the Baltimore Ravens 35-13 on Sunday after trailing 13-0, scoring all 35 of their points in the second half. Mixed · 2Quarterback Joe Burrow threw four touchdown passes, and said afterwards that he was "pretty lights out" in the second half while acknowledging he would have liked to have some first-half plays back, though the team did not turn the ball over. Centre · 1Newsweek reports that wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase gave an impassioned locker-room speech at halftime; Burrow told CBS Sports that Chase "got everyone fired up" but that "at the end of the day, we just executed".

Centre · 1Offensive tackle Amarius Mims said Chase's words "really fired us up" and called Chase the best receiver in the NFL; Chase finished with five catches for 62 yards and a touchdown. Right · 1Vice President JD Vance, who did not attend the game, posted on X, "Huge win for Cincinnati," adding, "It's early, but I think the Bengals are going to make a run. Who Dey!" Right · 1Fox News's OutKick columnist Armando Salguero notes the Bengals have won two straight but have swung between two-game winning and losing streaks, so they need such a run.

Right · 1Salguero says the schedule is favourable: four of the next five opponents have losing records, including the Washington Commanders and Tennessee Titans with one win each, though the Bengals also face division co-leader Pittsburgh. Right · 1Vance visited the Bengals' training facility the previous week; he later thanked Chase on X for noticing his six-year-old son's Bengals gloves, and Salguero dismisses reports that the team was unmoved or unfriendly during the visit as "fake news".

Every sentence links to the reporting it rests on. The pill in front of each says where its sources sit: Left, Centre or Right when one side supplies at least half of them, Mixed when they are evenly split. The number is how many outlets it cites.
