Andy Dalton: "We don't have selfish guys"

Dalton: "We don't have selfish guys"

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton has hailed the selfless nature of his receivers following his side's win over the New York Jets.

Dalton threw five touchdown passes in his side's victory, which included four to wide receiver Marvin Jones who set a franchise record in the game for touchdown receptions.

The 26-year-old feels that his receiving corps are not bothered who gets the scores as long as his side are winning games.

Dalton told reporters: "I think they know it all depends on the looks we're getting. We don't have too many selfish guys --we don't have selfish guys at all.

"That's why this offense has been able to do what it has, because we've got guys whose sole goal is to win the game.

"It's big, and I think everybody was really happy. I don't think anybody was jealous about what Marvin did yesterday. Everybody was just happy for him. That's what's so special about this team: We've got guys rooting for everybody and want everybody to be successful."

The Bengals are 6-2 in their season after week eight.
