The Cincinnati Bengals evened up their record at 8-8 with a win over the Denver Broncos on Saturday night in a back-and-forth game, winning in overtime by a score of 30-24.
The defense was inconsistent, Ja’Marr Chase dropped a touchdown pass in the first half, and Cade York missed a 33-yard field goal in overtime that could have won the game a few minutes earlier.
The only consistent people Zac Taylor had to rely on Saturday night were Joe Burrow and Tee Higgins.
Burrow is ending an MVP-caliber season, and we’ve seen his magic all season, but Higgins, who was questionable after being limited in practice all week with ankle and knee injuries, was the real star against the Broncos.
