Bengals Punish Late Cowboys Blunder to End 3-Game Losing Skid

1 week ago 5

The Cincinnati Bengals capitalised on a late Dallas Cowboys blunder to end their three-game NFL losing streak and win 27-20 in Texas on Monday.

With less than two minutes to play and the score 20-20, the Cowboys deflected a punt but Amani touched the ball to make it live, before it was recovered by the Bengals.

Three plays later, quarterback Joe Burrow found receiver Ja’Marr Chase for a 40-yard, game-winning touchdown.

Cincinnati held off a late Cowboys final drive to deny Dallas a third straight win.

The win extends Cincinnati’s record to 5-8 and keeps them mathematically in contention for a play-off spot, although the likelihood is unlikely because they would need other results to go their way.
