Andy Dalton looks just fine in the offense of new Cincinnati coach Zac Taylor.

Dalton threw for 245 yards and two touchdowns in the first half as the Bengals took a 17-14 lead over the Seahawks in Seattle.

Dalton hit John Ross on a 33-yard flea-flicker touchdown and added a 55-yard TD strike to Ross in the closing seconds of the first half after a mistake by Seattle safety Tedric Thompson.

Dalton was 18 of 26 passing and the Bengals ran only five times in the first half.
