I still don't believe it....the Bengals won

Bengals 31 Jaguars 27

If you didn’t see it, you won’t believe it.

The Bengals lost Joe Burrow to a left toe injury in the 2nd quarter, but rallied to win a game they didn’t lead until the :18 mark when Jake Browning capped a 15 play/92-yard drive with a TD keeper.

The Bengals are 2-0 for the first time since 2018. Zac Taylor won a Week 2 game for the first time.

How it happened:

Trailing 27-24, the defense got a 4th down stop at their own 8-yard line w/ 3:42 left after the Jaguars passed up a FG to go up 6. The Bengals converted a 4th & 3 at their own 14 w/ 2:42 left. Travis Hunter interfered with Andrei Iosivas on 4th & 5 at their 33 with 1:54 left at the Jacksonville 42. At the goal line, Dalton Rise was called for offsides with :51 left, moving the ball back to the 5-yard line. Browning hit Mike Gesicki at the goal line w/ :19 left. Browning then kept for a TD leap over the top of the pile.
