16. With two weeks to prepare, the Bills got off a good start in the Queen City. But by halftime, the host Bengals had scratched out a 12-10 advantage. However, Rex Ryan’s team pitched a shutout in the second half as they took advantage of a Cincinnati attack which lost wide receiver A.J. Green early in the game. Meanwhile, the Buffalo ground attack overcame the eventual loss of running back LeSean McCoy and gashed the Bengals defense for 183 yards on the ground. On defense, the hero for the Bills was cornerback Stephon Gilmore. He picked off Cincinnati quarterback Andy Dalton twice, totaled six tackles and knocked down three passes. <p>Next Week: Rex Ryan’s club is back in Orchard Park for a date with the highly-disappointing Jacksonville Jaguars, firmly embedded in last place in the AFC South with a 2-8 mark. It’s the beginning of a favorable stretch that will see the Bills play four of their next five games at home.</p> <p>Playoff hopes: The Bills ended a three-game losing streak and are back at the .500 mark with six games to play. The win over the Bengals was huge but Ryan’s team still owns a shaky 2-4 record within the conference. It’s going to take a hot streak and some help to get this team in playoff position.</p>. 5-5.
