The first 58 minutes of Sunday’s Bears-Bengals game were filled with thrilling moments, highlighted by nine touchdowns and five lead changes. But the heart-pounding drama late in the seesaw contest had to be seen to be believed.
Highlights from the Week 8 matchup between the New York Jets and the Cincinnati Bengals during the 2025 NFL season.
Cincinnati didn't waste time making New York pay for its decision on the failed 4th-and-1 conversion. The Bengals went 35 yards on five plays in 2:41 as Joe Flacco scored on the quarterback keeper from just outside the end zone after a Semaje Perine 10-yard run was stopped just short of the goal line.
The Bengals have lost three games in a row for the third time since the start of last season after falling to Detroit at Paycor Stadium Oct. 5.
Chris Boswell trotted on for a 41-yard field goal, furthering the Steelers' lead to 10-0. Incredible effort from S Juan Thornhill on a third-down tackle forced the Bengals to punt. Steelers take over at their own 26.
What a day it was for Caleb Williams, Kyle Monangai and Colston Loveland. And what a day it wasn't for Dennis Allen and Richard Hightower.
After the Bengals scored two touchdowns in a 49-second span to erase Chicago's 14-point lead, the Bears pulled off their fifth win of the season when Caleb Williams delivered a 58-yard touchdown to rookie Colston Loveland with 17 seconds remaining.
