The Cincinnati Bengals were far from in a must-win scenario as they entered Nissan Stadium Sunday, but a win had the potential to put them at 7-4 and tied for the top spot in the AFC North.
Win they did as the Bengals took a tie into both halftime and the third quarter and used a fourth-quarter touchdown to pull ahead of the Titans.
Cincinnati was led by quarterback Joe Burrow, who was 22-for-37 as a passer and also ran for 32 yards. He had a touchdown and no interceptions, ending with 270 passing yards.
