Reactions: Cincinnati Bengals outscore Indianapolis 20-0 in second half to improve to 7-6
Jake Browning overcame a rare thumb cramp to pass for 275 yards and two touchdowns to lift the Cincinnati Bengals to a 34-14 NFL Week 14 win against the Indianapolis Colts.
Browning's leading receiver wasn't Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins or Tyler Boyd, but rookie Chase Brown, who had three catches for 80 yards with a touchdown and added 25 rushing yards on eight carries.
The Bengals and Colts were tied at halftime, but Cincinnati outscored Indianapolis 20-0 after the break.

The Bengals just dropped 34 points in a win over another team that’s fighting for a playoff spot. They have a 7-6 record, and they’re starting to pick up some momentum heading into their final four games.

Zac Taylor on the Bengals offensive line today: Awesome. I think those guys up front did a great job.

The Bengals aren’t done. They are showing the strength of their team right now. Joey B is the franchise and his injury certainly hurts this team’s chances of winning a Super Bowl, but they are showing they can be a playoff team on the strength of the rest of the roster.
