The Kansas City Chiefs are hard to beat. Unless you're the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Bengals beat the Chiefs twice last season, including in the AFC championship game, and came back on Sunday to get another win over Kansas City. The Bengals made some mistakes but didn't back down, winning after trailing by seven going into the fourth quarter.
Cincinnati came up with a number of clutch plays in the fourth quarter to beat the Chiefs, just as they did in the regular season last year, and in the postseason too. The Bengals are 8-4 after the 27-24 win over the Chiefs and in good position to steal the AFC North title away from the Baltimore Ravens, who saw Lamar Jackson go down with a knee injury on Sunday.
The Bengals made the Super Bowl last season. They might be even better this season, and the win over the Chiefs is a sign they're peaking at the right time.The Bengals had chances to build a big lead after a fast start. But a few key mistakes kept the Chiefs in the game. On a fourth-and-1 deep in Chiefs territory, the Bengals decided to go for it. Instead of sneaking it ahead, which is a high percentage play in that situation, the Bengals ran a jet sweep from left to right. Chiefs defensive lineman Carlos Dunlap shot through the line and tackled it for an immediate loss. The momentum of the game changed after that.
In the third quarter, with the Chiefs leading 17-14, the Bengals dialed up a great playcall on third down, getting Tyler Boyd on a wheel route after a pick by Ja'Marr Chase got him open. And was Boyd ever open. There was nobody within five yards him when Joe Burrow's pass was in the air. And Boyd dropped it. There was no other reason than Boyd blew it. Nobody was around. The pass was fine. The sun wasn't in his eyes. It just went through his hands.
