The Cincinnati Bengals tend to garner major reactions right now, which is especially true coming out of the team’s 30-26 win over the New Orleans Saints in Week 6.
Buy Bengals TicketsThose Bengals, after a rocky 2-3 start, again looked sluggish at best. Even the defense that carried the franchise to a Super Bowl last year struggled mightily against an Andy Dalton-led Saints offense and especially against the rushing attack.
As one can probably imagine, the down performance, entertaining game and the fact Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase finally returned to the Dome made for a litany of noteworthy reactions from media and fans alike.
Huge road win for the Bengals to get to 3-3. Not pretty, but pragmatic and effective when needed. Some absolute money plays made by big-time players, too.
NYG currently leading BAL by 3 with under 1:30…

That’s a semi-season saving win. Pure gut check on the road.

Joe Burrow posted 300 yards passing, three touchdowns passing (one rushing), and zero interceptions.
This is Burrow's first game with 300+ yards passing, three or more touchdowns and no picks since week 17 last year against the Chiefs (446-4-0).

#Bengals win 30-26.
Defense still hasn’t allowed a second half TD all season.
Back to .500.

Bengals Eli Apple just danced and saluted the Superdome crowd as he walked off the field following that incompletion.
Cincinnati beats New Orleans, 30-26.

BJ Hill really stepped up on that play to sack Dalton. Deserves a game ball.

The Bengals winning and the Ravens losing to the New York Giants is just so sweet

Don’t want to be hyperbolic, but that could be a season-changing win for the Bengals

Joe Burrow’s walk off the field included a double fist pump, a “f*** yeah” and him signing a picture of his iconic cigar pic.

Defense has their worst game in a long time and the offense picked them up; that’s not nothing for the 3-3 Bengals.

The Ravens imploding and the Bengals coming back to win is a LARGE swing in the AFC North.
