INDIANAPOLIS – Those looking for aesthetically pleasing, would leave Lucas Oil Stadium unhappy on Sunday.
Bengals fans looking for a victory got just that. Coming off two seasons where those didn’t come in abundance, the team will take it.
If looking for a few words to sum up the Bengals effort in the 34-23 win in the season opener, resiliency should live in the top three. Opportunistic needs to be there, too.
After falling behind by two touchdowns late in the third quarter, the Bengals were on the ropes against the Colts, but rallied with three straight scoring drives behind precise passing from Andy Dalton and high number of Joe Mixon touches.
