The Cincinnati Bengals capitalised on a late Dallas Cowboys blunder to end their three-game NFL losing streak and win 27-20 in Texas on Monday.<\/b><\/p>\n
With less than two minutes to play and the score 20-20, the Cowboys deflected a punt but Amani Oruwariye touched the ball to make it live, before it was recovered by the Bengals.<\/p>\n
Three plays later, quarterback Joe Burrow found receiver Ja’Marr Chase for a 40-yard, game-winning touchdown.<\/p>\n
Cincinnati held off a late Cowboys final drive to deny Dallas a third straight win.<\/p>\n
The win extends Cincinnati’s record to 5-8 and keeps them mathematically in contention for a play-off spot, although the likelihood is unlikely because they would need other results to go their way.<\/p>\n
“We needed a break. We haven’t got many this year. It was nice to get that one, nice to come out of this with a win,” said Burrow.<\/p>\n
The Cowboys, who were missing key quarterback Dak Prescott through injury, also have a 5-8 record with a slim chance of qualifying for the play-offs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
