Falcons Soar at Paycor Stadium Against Bengals in Week 7 Showdown
The Atlanta Falcons, with a record of 7-10, faced off against the Cincinnati Bengals, who held a record of 12-4. The game ended with a score of 35-17 in favor of the home team at Paycor Stadium.
The Atlanta Falcons entered the field with determination but were unable to match the Cincinnati Bengals' performance. The Falcons' offense managed to accumulate a total of 214 yards throughout the game. The rushing attack contributed significantly with 107 yards on 29 attempts, averaging about four yards per carry. Despite their efforts on the ground, they were only able to cross into the end zone once via rush.
Through the air, Atlanta's passing game was relatively quiet but efficient when it connected. Quarterback play resulted in one touchdown and an impressive longest completion stretching for 75 yards out of their total passing yardage of 124. Their completion percentage hovered around sixty-one percent from thirteen attempts.
Special teams had moments worth noting as well; particularly impressive was a punt return that racked up an outstanding longest return for fifty-six yards contributing to their sixty-four total return yards.
Defensively, Atlanta showed resilience by recording three sacks and six quarterback hits against their opponents while also achieving one fourth-down stop during critical moments in play. However, they could not manage any interceptions or forced fumbles throughout this encounter.
On penalties, discipline was maintained as they incurred only three penalties costing them twenty-two yards which is relatively low compared to many NFL games.
