Cincinnati Bengals trounce New York Jets for sixth win

Andy Dalton has led the Cincinnati Bengals to a crushing home win over the New York Jets tonight, throwing five touchdown passes in a 49-9 victory at Paul Brown Stadium.

A record-breaking night for the Bengals saw Marvin Jones set a franchise benchmark for touchdown pass receptions, scoring four times as New York's defence proved powerless in a tough night for the Jets.

Jones completed a hat-trick of touchdowns inside the first half as the Bengals built a 28-6 lead at the break, with Jermaine Gresham also collecting for an early score.

Jets quaterback Geno Smith was unable to offer any kind of response as he threw two interceptions, allowing Chris Crocker and Adam Jones to add their names to the scoresheet in the second half.

New York's heaviest defeat since 2010 saw them slip to 4-4 with very little in the way of resistance, while a seven-touchdown showing saw the Bengals move further ahead in the AFC North.
