When they went into their bye week, the Bengals had seven passes of at least 40 yards. It took them four games to get another, a 42-yard pass to wide receiver A.J. Green Sunday night. Then Bernard ripped off a 41-yard screen pass and had a huge 30-yard catch-and-run against linebacker Kevin Minter. He’s also got their longest run of the year with a 28-yarder.
On his 24th birthday he set the team record for most receiving yards by a running back with 128. The last time a back reached 100 yards, was 17 years ago when Brandon Bennett set the record with 119 against the Steelers.
