The Cincinnati Bengals may have fallen short on the scoreboard, but they closed out their matchup with plenty of positives to build on — and it all started with Ja’Marr Chase.
After a quiet first half, Chase erupted in the fourth quarter, torching the Lions’ defense and reminding everyone why he’s one of the league’s most dangerous playmakers. His late-game explosion helped spark a mini rally that injected some much-needed energy into an offense that had struggled for most of the day.
Head coach Zac Taylor praised his team’s fight, emphasizing that the Bengals must carry that same urgency into next week. “We finally found our rhythm,” Taylor said. “Now it’s about keeping it for four quarters.”
While the loss stings, the Bengals leave Detroit encouraged by their late surge. If Ja’Marr Chase and the offense can sustain that momentum from the fourth quarter, Cincinnati could be on the verge of turning things around.
