ANALYSIS: 5 takeaways from the Bengals’ win over the Panthers
CINCINNATI -- Quarterback Joe Burrow called Sunday’s win over the Carolina Panthers the “first complete game” the Cincinnati Bengals have played this season. Now they are hoping that turns into another playoff push like the one they made last year to get to the Super Bowl.
Joe Mixon’s franchise-record five touchdowns and 153 yards rushing paved the way for a balanced offense, and the defense pitched a first-half shutout with two takeaways to help secure a 42-21 win Sunday at Paycor Stadium.
The Bengals (5-4) washed away the sour taste of a blowout loss in Week 8 at Cleveland on Monday NIght Football and head into their bye week having won three of their last four games.
