Bengals vs. Cowboys highlights: Cincinnati defeats Dallas after crazy late-game sequence
The Cincinnati Bengals have snapped their three-game skid.
Cincinnati defeated the Dallas Cowboys on the road in the Week 14 edition of “Monday Night Football,” 27-20.
Wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase continued his incredible run with two more touchdowns, including a 40-yard catch-and-run that ended up being the game winner. That score made it eight touchdowns for the wideout in his last four games and extended his league lead to 15 receiving touchdowns this year.
Chase might not have had a chance to score that touchdown if not for a wild sequence a few plays earlier.
Bengals punter Ryan Rehkow’s punt was blocked by a Cowboys defender on fourth down coming out of the two-minute warning. But the tipped ball ended up bouncing off of the arms of cornerback/special teamer Amani Oruwariye, and Cincinnati recovered the fumble just shy of midfield.
