The Philadelphia Eagles record their 10th loss of the NFL season.

The Philadelphia Eagles defense struggled as the Cincinnati Bengals took a convincing win to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The Bengals dominated the first quarter, BenJarvus Green-Ellis scoring an early touchdown.

The home side found their stride in the second quarter, taking a three-point lead at half time.

However, the Bengals were too strong, preventing the Eagles from adding to their score after the break.

The Cincinnati defense forced five turnovers, with Andy Dalton, AJ Green and Wallace Gilberry all finding the end zone.

The loss was Philadelphia's 10th of the season, marking the first time that the side has lost 10 games in a year since 2005.

The Bengals move into second in the AFC North.
