There were whispers after the Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Saints on the road in Week 6 that the Bengals were back. It seemed fragile, though. They hadn’t put a full game together yet on offense, so anything louder than a whisper might make the whole thing fall apart. Feel free to yell now, because the Bengals are back!
They dropped 35 points on the visiting Atlanta Falcons on Sunday at home, giving up just 17 in a completely dominant showing by the offense, defense and special teams, when they were needed, which wasn’t often.
