The Cincinnati Bengals remained undefeated with a win over a tough Buffalo Bills team on the road.
The Cincinnati Bengals were looking to remain undefeated against a tough revamped Buffalo Bills team that was getting back running back LeSean McCoy. The Bills had the benefit of homefield advantage and perhaps some snow.
The Bengals almost pulled away in the second quarter, but the Bills were able to keep it close. The third quarter was when the Bengals finally pulled away from the Bills to put this game pretty much out of reach.
Three stars
- Andy Dalton, QB, Bengals – Dalton continued his MVP season campaign with three touchdowns, no interceptions and completed roughly two-thirds of his passes.
- Marvin Jones, WR, Bengals – Had a big day for the Bengals, including a 42-yard reception and a touchdown.
- LeSean McCoy, RB, Bills – McCoy returned and had an impact on the Bills’ offense, even found the end zone for a touchdown.
Highlights
The highlight of the game is clearly Marvin Jones touchdown. He gets up-ended and cartwheels through the air, but somehow manages to extend his arm with the ball to break the plane, and holds on.
Marvin Jones is no stranger to acrobatics.

But this one-handed forward dive TD?? No words.
Just no words. #CINvsBUF http://t.co/c0zE0iLyYL
Jones wasn’t the only one flipping into the end zone, running back Jeremy Hill did his own version as well.
Watch Jeremy Hill make the catch

Watch him break 2 tackles.
Watch him front flip into the end zone.
Oh my #CINvsBUF http://t.co/ELxTfQAkIF
Bengals running back Gio Bernard cut through the Bills defense for a 17-yard touchdown run and the Bills didn’t appear to touch him.
He wasn't launched out of a cannon.

Next Week
Next week the Cincinnati Bengals have a bye week. When they return in early November, they take on the Pittsburgh Steelers, a team still struggling to find their identity but a divisional rival.
The Buffalo Bills host the Jacksonville Jaguars next week, a game they’ll be expecting a win in.
