Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor was adamant this week that December football in the NFL is about winning at all costs. In the NFL, good teams pull out wins in a variety of ways.
On Sunday at Paycor Stadium in front of an announced attendance of 66,222, the Bengals found a way to beat the Cleveland Browns, 23-10, despite a sluggish start offensively and injuries to two of its top playmakers. It's the Bengals' first win in the Battle of Ohio since the 2019 season-finale.
"It was really just a great team effort of finding a way to win in December," Taylor said.
