First Quarter


The opening quarter set the tone for the Bengals as Joe Burrow orchestrated an impressive aerial attack. Burrow completed 25 out of 32 passes, amassing 309 yards and four touchdowns without any interceptions. His precision passing was evident as he connected with Ja'Marr Chase for significant gains, including a longest reception of 36 yards that kept the chains moving.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, Chase Brown emerged as a key contributor on both rushing and receiving fronts. Brown rushed for a total of 66 yards on 12 attempts and scored one touchdown. Additionally, he caught four passes for another two touchdowns, demonstrating his versatility in contributing to Cincinnati's offensive success.


Third Quarter


As the game progressed into the third quarter, Tee Higgins made his presence felt with three receptions totaling 53 yards and one touchdown. His ability to stretch the field complemented Burrow's deep passing game effectively. Meanwhile, Mike Gesicki added another layer to this dynamic offense by securing three catches for 35 yards and one touchdown.


Fourth Quarter


Defensively, Myles Murphy played a pivotal role by recovering one fumble while Jordan Battle forced another turnover that helped maintain Cincinnati's lead throughout the fourth quarter. The defense collectively forced two interceptions against Miami’s offense which struggled under pressure from Cincinnati’s relentless pass rush led by B.J Hill who recorded multiple quarterback hits during critical moments.


The special teams also contributed significantly; Ryan Rehkow averaged an impressive net yardage per punt ensuring favorable field position consistently throughout all quarters while Evan McPherson remained perfect on extra points converting six attempts successfully along with making his only field goal attempt from long range (45 yards).


Overall this comprehensive performance highlighted what went wrong for Cincinnati Bengals earlier in their season but showcased how they can dominate when firing on all cylinders offensively & defensively alike - providing fans hope looking forward towards future matchups such as upcoming home clash against Arizona Cardinals scheduled December twenty-eighth at Paycor Stadium where fans can catch live action broadcasted via FOX network starting from early afternoon (1:00 PM EST).
