The Cincinnati Bengals broke into the win column in Week 13, as they beat the New York Jets 22-6. For the Bengals, it was the first win of the 2019 NFL season. For quarterback Andy Dalton, it was some late-season vindication.
Cincinnati needed this one. They needed something, anything, to get that 0-2019 off of their collective backs. Now, with a victory under their belt, the last four games of the season get very interesting.
Dalton was solid in his return. Nothing flashy, as that isn’t his style, but he did just enough to build a lead that the Jets would find insurmountable.
