The Bengals needed a single play to take the lead over in the second half thanks to the connection between Joe Burrow and Tee Higgins, the young Bengals receiver who has accounted for both of Cincinnati’s touchdowns in this game.
On the first play of the second half, Burrow stepped up as the pocket was breaking down around him and found Higgins working against Jalen Ramsey one on one for a deep connection.
As he made his way into the end zone for the 75-yard touchdown. Higgins looked to his left and his right. None of the Rams defenders were anywhere near him.
