“And he did,” said left tackle Andrew Whitworth after Sunday’s wild 28-24 victory for the Bengals that saw the lead change four times in a 4:39 span of the fourth quarter.
“Whether it was putting eight men in the box or blitzing DBs, they gave him a chance to beat them.”
Dalton threw for a career-best 383 yards and two of his three TD passes gave the Bengals the lead with 6:37 left and then for good with 2:10 left. Both went to A.J. Green working out of the slot with man-to-man matchups that didn’t come close.
