Receiver Ja'Marr Chase had 97 receiving yards on six catches with a TD, and broke his own franchise record for single-season receiving yards.
And despite questionable flags on Joseph Ossai and Marco Wilson and an injury to offensive tackle Amarius Mims , the Bengals cruised to an AFC North win with just two games left in their regular season.
Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson (93) sacks Cleveland Browns quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson (17) from his knees in the fourth quarter of the NFL Week 16 game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Cleveland Browns at Paycor Stadium in downtown Cincinnati on Sunday, Dec. 22, 2024.
