A rushing touchdown from Andy Dalton and a 16-yard pass for Marvin Jones have helped the Cincinnati Bengals build a strong lead against the Baltimore Ravens.

Baltimore tried to reduce the deficit with a Justin Tucker field goal from 50 yards, but he pulled his attempt wide of the uprights.
The Ravens luck worsened when Joe Flacco was picked off on his own 30-yard line, which gave Cincinnati the chance to increase their lead.
They did so as Dalton threw down the centre to wide receiver Jones for 16 yards, to leave the Ravens down two scores.
Indeed, Dalton thought he had set up a third TD for Tyler Eifert, but officials reversed the decision after ruling it an incomplete pass.
