00:00We see a lot of guys in the line of scrimmage right now.
00:08Linebackers close to the line of scrimmage.
00:10De'Ami Brown in motion.
00:11Third and six.
00:12Flag out at the start of the play.
00:14Tipped and intercepted.
00:17Jordan Battle, who had a pick last week in the third quarter against Cleveland.
00:27There is a flag, though.
00:28This might not stand.
00:30An eagle shift.
00:31Offense.
00:32The telonies to find.
00:33Result of play.
00:33Interception.
00:34Touchdown.
00:35Well, Logan, you call it for the defense of the Bengals to come up with pressure and make
00:41a play.
00:42Logan, Jordan Battle right there for the Bengals.
00:46He had a crucial one last week, but I'll tell you what, Brian Thomas made a business decision
00:49to not go across that middle there.
00:51He shut it down.
00:52Look how he shuts it down.
00:53Sticks his arm out and tips and overthrows.
00:56Got to get those, is what we say in the DB room.
00:58Jordan Battle with his second pick in two weeks.
01:03Meanwhile, Joe Burrow, the long, slow walk, looks like he's heading back to the locker room.
01:09With 7.04 still to go here in this first half.
01:13Joe Burrow's a tough cookie.
01:15When you can't put weight on it, that's never a good sign he's going to get an x-ray.
01:20So Jake Browning, pop pass, chase, speeds to the outside, tries to turn the corner.
01:26And there's a few yards shy of first down yardage.
01:33Trying to follow Joe Burrow to the back.
01:36That's the position the Bengals have been in over the years.
01:39Browning specifically has that experience in the back half of 2023.
01:42Just from personal experience, there are so many ligaments and bones in the foot, ankle, area.
01:51When you have an injury down there, you just never know how severe it could be.
01:56As he continues to get examined, second and three.
02:01Not much room for Brown.
02:03Hines Allen off the edge.
02:07Now, how do you approach this third down play call?
02:09It's third and two, short yardage, with a backup quarterback.
02:13Both teams know right now that Joe Burrow's not out there.
02:16You're looking at the running game and short, easy passes.
02:19If you're the Jags, you've got to play tighter coverage.
02:22You do not want to give any easy throws to any backup quarterback.
02:25Jake Browning, that is.
02:26And the Bengals know they have to rely on running the ball now
02:29and getting the ball to Jamar Chase, T. Higgins, quickly,
02:31so the playmakers can make plays in space.
02:33Hey, hey, hey, Tony, come on, right here.
02:35On a possession set up, Jordan Battle interception, third and two.
02:39Brown again.
02:41Stood up at the 20 and falls forward.
02:44He looks like he has enough for the first, indeed.
02:50That three-yard run means a lot there.
02:53Because I just referenced, the Bengals have to run the ball now without Joe Burrow.
02:57And the Jags know it.
02:58And the Bengals still able to convert on the run.
03:01You're going to see a lot more Chase Brown game today.
03:04And keep in mind, the Bengals had the lowest week one rushing total of any team.
03:10It was 46 yards on the ground against the Browns.
03:13Browning keeps it.
03:25Rolls right.
03:27It has an open goal of Phant.
03:28The crowd started to yell, but he didn't see it.
03:31Throws it away.
03:32Trayvon Walker was chasing.
03:35You can hear the crowd start to yell because they saw Phant break loose in the end zone.
03:39That's the backup quarterback, Jake Browning.
03:46Just kind of getting his feel of the game, missing an open receiver there.
03:51It's hard coming off the bench right into action.
03:53But you got a guy like Joe Burrow ahead of you.
03:55You don't know how much you're going to play, but you got to be ready to play when your number
03:59gets called.
04:00You saw there Travis Hunter flipping a bit on the sideline.
04:03So a couple of the headliners of this game being examined.
04:07One-on-one down bottom here.
04:10That's T. Higgins.
04:12Browning looks that way.
04:13Runs out of time.
04:14Trayvon Walker closed that quickly like he usually does.
04:19Browning had the one-on-one down bottom, but Trayvon Walker said, I'm a number one pick
04:28too.
04:29Not just these other quarterbacks.
04:30Check me out.
04:31He wins right away.
04:32And I mentioned it earlier.
04:35The Bengals O-line is the key to this game, the key to this season.
04:40If you can't keep Joe Burrow healthy and can't protect the pocket, you're not going to have
04:44a successful day.
04:45Travis Hunter off the field here.
04:49Third down and 18.
04:51And they protect Browning enough.
04:53Quick slant.
04:54That's Chase in stride.
04:56Chase hit hard.
04:57He needed a 10 for the first.
04:59He's three yards shy of it.
05:01With a team down to touchdown late here in the second quarter.
05:05Decision time for Zach Taylor.
05:08I tell you, that play was called to protect the field goal because you're in field goal
05:11range, but Jamar Chase did something with it to lead to a decision.
05:14Field goal team running on.
05:16Crowd's not happy about it.
05:20They needed a bunch and got within three of the first.
05:24But instead, McPherson comes in for a 31-yard attempt.
05:29Last year was the toughest year so far of his NFL career.
05:32Made one from 35 last week.
05:37This one from 31 right through.
05:43The interception by Jordan Battle leads to three points for the Bengals.
05:48Jags still lead on the road.
05:52Here we can catch up anytime on Paramount+.
05:55Bengals field goal and a drive led by Jake Browning.
06:01Joe Burrow left moments ago.
06:03Let's get an update with Tiff.
06:05Hey guys, I can tell you a little bit about what I saw after Burrow went down.
06:08They were trying to, the athletic training staff, do a little bit of work on his left ankle.
06:12It appeared and taped it up.
06:13But as we saw him being helped off to the locker room, he's going to get some further examination.
06:17I'll wait till we get official word and give it back to you guys.
06:20But having been here for Jake Browning starts a few years ago, I can tell you that this team
06:25has all the confidence in the world in him being a capable backup.
06:28I mean, Tiffany, he's a career, Browning.
06:3070% completion quarterback.
06:33Talk about a guy who was very productive, as you mentioned, in the games you saw in the
06:37back half of 2023.
06:38After the field goal, Washington, that ball lands in the end zone, so you take a knee.
06:46That goes out to the 35-yard line.
06:49Let's get an update with New York.
06:51Adam Schein.
06:53Chris, the DK Metcalf revenge game.
06:57We have the DK Metcalf revenge touchdown.
07:00Two-point conversion.
07:02Good.
07:0214-7.
07:03Pittsburgh, back to you.
07:06Logan, you've played for five teams.
07:08Is it a little bit different when you're going against a former squad?
07:11It's always a little extra chip on his shoulder there, for sure.
07:15I mean, when you play for five, you pretty much play against every squad.
07:18You know, but I had fun in New England one time against Brady, and I won a lot of games
07:22with my guy, too.
07:24Picked him off.
07:25Trying to end his time at the Patriots.
07:28Flag out, start of the play.
07:30High throw to Brenton Strange off his hands.
07:33Battle came crashing in.
07:35We'll check the penalty.
07:38Illegal shift.
07:43Offense.
07:43The penalty has declined.
07:45Let's check it out.
07:45That's the Jaguars' third illegal shift in as many plays, and Trevor Lawrence talked about
07:54the new offense.
07:55So much at the line of scrimmage.
07:57A lot of pre-snap motions, and these are errors you see.
08:01Everyone's not set.
08:02He's trying to get the play off.
08:03Etienne not set at the top of the screen.
08:05All right, Boise.
08:06All right, Boise.
08:06These are the learning curves of a new offense.
08:08Penalties were a theme in week one for Jacksonville.
08:12They had 11 of them.
08:15Etienne couldn't really get going.
08:18Boy, the rookie Demetrius Knight Jr. from South Carolina fired up after the tackle, joined
08:22by fellow rookie Shamar Stewart.
08:24The only thing that stopped the Jags so far this game from moving the ball is penalties and
08:30the two turnovers by Trevor Lawrence.
08:31He has to clean that up.
08:33He has a great play call on Liam Cohen.
08:35Those two INTs make it 49 in his career.
08:38That's much too many.
08:38Angles with two straight weeks of multiple interceptions.
08:50Can they make another play on third and seven?
08:54LeQuint Allen Jr. in at running back, the rookie from Syracuse.
08:58With the pass protection to set up this crossing route, Parker Washington.
09:03Big play and makes one miss by the sideline.
09:05On third down, a jump play as Geno Stone runs him out of bounds at Jacksonville's in business.
09:15Parker Washington in motion just comes right across the screen there, running away from
09:18leverage.
09:19This guy showed up big today, second time for a big play for Parker Washington.
09:23That's 40 yards.
09:26And the protection was beautiful.
09:27The back Chip Hendrickson gave Trevor Lawrence time to find Parker Washington.
09:32Look at the chip here by Allen.
09:34And then rookie back helps out on Hendrickson, and it gives Trevor Lawrence the time to make
09:39that throw.
09:40And for a rookie to be brought in for pass protection situations, that's rare.
09:45Lawrence looking, deflected, and intercepted off the ricochet.
09:51Looking for Travis Hunter, and the ball hawk Geno Stone has another.
09:56Career INT number 13 for the former Raven.
10:05Geno Stone, a communicator, the smart guy in the back, tips and overthrows.
10:09I talked about that, but we got to take another look.
10:12As a former DB, I'm going to celebrate like I caught it, too.
10:15But we got to take another look if Geno Stone was able to get underneath that ball there.
10:18We got to take a closer look.
10:24Stone with the near INT.

11:21It's a stone-cold world as the interception's taken away from Geno Stone.
11:27You can see there, that ball tip hit the ground.
11:29I got a saying, fake it till you make it in life.
11:32Geno Stone can't fake it there.
11:33There's too many cameras in the building.
11:34It caught him.
11:35Ball hit the ground.
11:36They found our recipe for calling this game.
11:38Rolling to the right, Trevor Lawrence throws it away.
11:43Flags down.
11:43Back near the line of scrimmage.
11:49Another pre-snap penalty.
12:00Illegal shift.
12:02Offense, two players in motion.
12:03Both are not consent.
12:04The penalty has declined.
12:06It's third down.
12:07And pre-snap has been an issue.
12:08Coming up on the Verizon Halftime Report.

12:13All the latest NFL scores and highlights.
12:15It's coming up on the Verizon Halftime Report.
12:20That interception was taken away from Trevor Lawrence.
12:24That would have been his third of the first half.
12:26Still a dangerous pass.
12:28How does he handle it here?
12:29Team in field goal range on third and ten.
12:31He's got to take care of the ball.
12:32They're in field goal range here.
12:34Protect the ball, Trevor Lawrence.
12:35With Etienne in the slot, Hendrickson pressure steps around it.
12:41Again, a flag in.
12:43Lawrence's wheels.
12:44He throws way past the line of scrimmage.
12:47An incomplete.
12:49A lot of contact in the end zone and a flag there.
12:53So, a lot to examine here.
12:54This is the bad news Bears and the Little Giants.
12:58About four penalties on this play.
13:01Lawrence threw the ball.
13:02Four yards downfield.
13:03Trey Henderson looked like he drew a hold.
13:05And a hold in the end zone.
13:06Yeah, nobody has any laundry left in the pocket.
13:16Now, this needs to be held in a boardroom right here with all the penalty flags that are in.
13:22All the officials that have something to say about what happened there.
13:25They need to have time stamps when each incident happened.
13:29There's so much illegal happened on this play.
13:36There were two fouls.
13:38Illegal shift offense.
13:39That penalty has declined.
13:41Illegal forward pass number 16 offense.
13:44Quarterback was completely beyond the line of scrimmage when he threw the pass.
13:47Five-yard penalty from the spot of the foul.
13:49Lost it down.
13:51Fourth down.
13:52Cincinnati will be given the option regarding a 10-second runoff.
13:55Since the quarterback was beyond the line of scrimmage, there is no foul for defensive pass interference.
14:01So, that's the explanation for Lawrence who wanted the flag in the end zone.
14:04An illegal forward pass.
14:05There can be no pass interference.
14:07Still, I love how Alan Eck emphasized completely because this one wasn't very close.
14:14You see the line of scrimmage and Trevor Lawrence is a good four to five yards.
14:19Six, seven yards past it.
14:22Five-yard penalty from spotting.
14:23Illegal forward pass.
14:24It's fourth down.
14:25Game clock is starting to snap.
14:27So, Cam Little comes in.
14:33This will be from 42 yards.
14:37He was made 25 in a row inside of 50.
14:41This is well within his range, Chris.
14:44He made a 70-yarder in preseason.
14:48Such a shame that he made the kick.
14:51Doesn't count in the record books.
14:53Record's still 66.
14:54But Little's got a big leg in his second year from Arkansas.
15:01And 42.
15:04Could not have designed that any better.
15:07Full seven-point lead for Jacksonville with 95 seconds left here in this first half.
15:14Premier League and streaming on Paramount+.
15:21This is where my love of the game was born.
15:25But they're taking that love even farther.
15:28We helped grow the game.
15:31They're taking it where it's never been.
15:34Where will you take it next?
15:3617-10.
15:44Jacksonville leads late in the first half.
15:49Coming up on the Verizon Halftime Report.
15:51Join JB, Nate, Matt Ryan, Coach Cower.
15:53All the latest NFL scores and highlights.
15:55It's all coming up on the Verizon Halftime Report.
16:01A lot of illegal shift penalties on Jacksonville.
16:05Especially in this second quarter.
16:07Bogged down their last drive.
16:09Had to settle for a field goal.
16:13They didn't have Tameyos last week.
16:15They had penalties but not operation penalties.
16:17Pre-snap penalties.
16:19Cam Little.
16:21P. Ryan.
16:24From the landing zone.
16:25P. Ryan lost drives.
16:29All the way to the 40.
16:30Devin Lloyd brings him down.
16:36So, two timeouts.
16:38A minute 29.
16:39Backup quarterback.
16:41How do you approach this if you're Zach Taylor?
16:43Well, that P. Ryan returns to the 40 changes things.
16:45I didn't know how much they'll go for it.
16:47Now I think they will.
16:48The first down is key in two minutes.
16:51They got to either run the ball, quick screen, to a playmaker.
16:55Once you get that first 10 yards, then you get on the ball and start rolling.
17:00Screen.
17:00Chase.
17:01Loppers in front.
17:02Chase!
17:03They're chasing!
17:05Bob's out of bounds.
17:06What a way to start the drive.
17:08Eric Murray runs him out.
17:10Chris, it's like I played the game for 11 years.
17:15Run the ball.
17:16Quick screen to a playmaker.
17:18No one better than number one, Jamar Chase.
17:20And this is what he does.
17:21Plays running back.
17:22He played until eighth grade.
17:23He's great with the ball in his hands.
17:25And now he puts you in scoring position in one play.
17:2929 yards.
17:32And you called it.
17:33Give a safe play for your quarterback.
17:35Get him into a rhythm.
17:36Now you're at the 35.
17:38And you still have your timeouts.
17:39You can run the ball still.
17:40You can throw more screens.
17:42Or you can throw the ball into the middle of the field.
17:47Chase from the left to the right of the formation.
17:54Grounding.
17:56Looking far side.
17:58Higgins back shoulder.
18:00And incomplete.
18:02Tight coverage by Jarrion Jones.
18:04Remember, he left with a back injury.
18:06He's returned and matched up against one of the best in the league.
18:10Credit to Jarrion Jones here.
18:11Staying on top with T. Higgins.
18:12This is what he does best.
18:14The back shoulder.
18:15And Jarrion Jones is in the right place at the right time.
18:19Fans want to flag.
18:20I don't see enough there.
18:21And that's the lack of chemistry.
18:23Joe Burrow, that ball would have been a little more accurate.
18:25You think he didn't turn his head enough?
18:27That's why the crowd wants the penalty.
18:30The lack of a head turn.
18:31I don't think the ball was catchable enough.
18:33If that ball is a little more catchable, you might get a call there.
18:38Another screen.
18:39Chase, you brought it up.
18:41Grew up playing running back.
18:42That time corralled for a loss.
18:45Jordan Lewis there.
18:47Now the clock moving.
18:48A minute seven.
18:48Still two timeouts left before a third down.
18:52That's a beautiful tackle by Jordan Lewis there.
18:54But notice how the Bengals aren't going to use their timeout.
18:56They're in no rush right now.
19:00They want to bleed the clock down.
19:01Maybe settle for a field goal here and don't get the ball back to Jacksonville.
19:04I think that's interesting.
19:06It's not going to use the timeout, but I think that's the right call.
19:14Clock continues to move inside of 40 seconds.
19:17It'll be a long field goal.
19:2053 yards from here.
19:22Browning pressured in his face, and he throws an interception on the backside.
19:30Eric Murray, a former Houston Texan, with Trayvon Walker right in the grill of Browning.
19:38So instead of the opportunity for three, Jacksonville takes over.
19:43Jacksonville sitting in a soft zone, and the receiver there just stops.
19:47Yossi Voss stops his route, and this is what I'm talking about when Joe Burrow's not out there.
19:54The chemistry, the timing, the throw directly to Eric Murray because the receiver and quarterback
19:58aren't on the same page.
19:59So the one time Coach Taylor goes aggressive with a down-the-field play call on third down,
20:04it ends up burning his team.
20:06And I'm going to tell you what Liam Cohen's about to do.
20:08I believe he's going to be aggressive here.
20:11They have the one timeout, but he still has trust in Trevor Lawrence.
20:14Although the two INTs, I still think they throw the ball downfield.
20:17Not hiding anything, spreading it out.
20:26Lawrence D. dropped back, slides through one.
20:29Eyes down the field, launches.
20:31Thomas there, deflected away, but nearly caught off the bounce.
20:36Hunter was there, but could not haul it in.
20:39Wow.
20:40That had a lot on a play late first half.
20:43What an exciting play right there.
20:46Brian Thomas prevents the INT.
20:48Travis Hunter, always around the ball, doesn't catch that one.
20:51That would have been a massive play for the Jags.
20:54Put them in field goal range, knowing how good their kicker is.
21:00Boy, Hunter right through his hands.
21:02With that incomplete pass there, I think Jacksonville plays it a little safer here.
21:07I don't know if they go down the field again.
21:09Remember, Cam Little, you brought it up.
21:10That 70-yard field goal you've made in the preseason.
21:13Don't have to get too much farther.
21:15Brown jukes the Ami Brown to the 36.
21:19Yeah, that one timeout left seven seconds.
21:21It's winding, and it looks like Jacksonville will let this one get to halftime.
21:26They got the takeaway.
21:29Their fourth takeaway this season to end the Cincinnati drive.
21:34They had only nine takeaways all of last season.
21:40Exciting, adventurous.
21:42First 30 minutes.
21:44Core Stadium here in Cincinnati, where the Jaguars have the 17-10 lead.
21:48Getting ready to start the second half, along with Logan Ryan for the first time.
21:52Love sharing the booth with you.
21:53Chris Lewis, Tiffany Blackman is on the sideline.
21:56So the big moment in the first half was a Joe Burrow injury left in the second quarter.
22:01How does that change the outlook here in this second half?
22:03I'm not going to lie.
22:04It changed the entire game plan for both teams.
22:07The Bengals have to get the ball to Jamar Chase and run the ball.
22:09That's just what they have to do to generate offense.
22:11And the Jags are going to bring more pressure.
22:13And they need to run the ball to stop Trevor Lawrence from throwing the turnovers.
22:16So we'll take a look at the first half stats coming up later.
22:20But the turnovers were the key factor for Jacksonville.
22:25They moved the ball as well as they've had in a long time in the first half.
22:29Samaje P. Ryan bobbles that one and gets on top of it.
22:34Right at the 25.
22:35Scary moment for the Bengals.
22:38Right out of the shoot of the second half.
22:40Moments ago, Tiffany Blackman with Liam Cohen.
22:42Coach Cohen, two touchdowns after a fast start.
22:47But how can you guys better get around this defense on the Bengals?
22:50They've been so disruptive.
22:51Yeah, they've gotten a few plays on us when we, you know, haven't had a chip on them or something like that.
22:56And you look at some self-inflicted wounds that have kind of cost us some points on the board.
23:02And when you look at it, we've been moving the ball up and down the field.
23:05But we've got to limit the penalties and turning the ball over.
23:08Thanks, Coach.
23:11So that's the perspective from Jacksonville.
23:13What they have to correct.
23:14They're on defense to start the third with Chase Brown burrowing forward for five.
23:20He's completely right.
23:21Jacksonville's moved the ball.
23:22It's the self-inflicted wounds today.
23:24The penalties, the turnovers is what kept this game even this close.
23:28The Bengals we talked about, you saw the early run there.
23:32And they've got to find number one Jamar Chase as much as possible.
23:36So guy from the Sacramento area, Jake Browning.
23:43Hands it off again.
23:45What a spin.
23:46Brown holds on to the ball.
23:47Hines Allen chasing from behind.
23:49But picks up enough for the first.
23:53Chase Brown put over 1,000 all-purpose yards up last year.
23:57Alvin Kamara-level production.
23:59He's really developed in this league.
24:01He's always had good vision.
24:02He runs hard.
24:04You know he has a twin brother over there in Philly.
24:06And he's getting more of a load not only today but this season.
24:11Sidney Brown for Philly.
24:12They have a test in the Super Bowl rematch against the Chiefs.
24:18That's Gasicki in motion on first.
24:23Browning unleashes right on.
24:25That's target for Jamar Chase.
24:31That's 25 yards for Cincy.
24:35Look at the route running by Jamar Chase.
24:37He's always smooth.
24:38Never looks like he's trying his hardest.
24:40But he dots those toes every time.
24:43It is hard to make professional football that effortless.
24:46But that's what Jamar Chase does.
24:47I'll let you know he's picked up enough for the first.
24:53Production did not drop off too much when Browning was the starter in the back half of 2023 two seasons ago.
25:02Brown.
25:03Before he got ahead of steam.
25:06Shy of the 35.
25:09One of the most productive backs of the NFL over the back half of last year.
25:13You mentioned the scrimmage yards.
25:15Finished just shy of 1,000 rushing yards.
25:17And that continued his role of what he did at Illinois.
25:20It's a lot like what he did at Illinois.
25:21Getting involved in the pass game, the run game, good agility, good vision, good balance.
25:28It is third year.
25:30First time starting the season as the lead guy.
25:35Jamar Chase over 100 receiving yards in this game.
25:39Second and seven.
25:41Browning to Chase again.
25:43That's catch number 10 on 11 targets.
25:46They're the 25.
25:48It is the Jamar Chase show for the Cincinnati offense.
25:53Jamar Chase show that is.
25:55And I'll tell you this, Chris.
25:57When you have an injury like Joe Burrow, you can't make adjustments until halftime.
26:01And that's clearly what Cincinnati did.
26:03Now they're finding the plays that Browning likes.
26:05Now they're finding Jamar Chase more because he needs to be involved more.
26:09And Chase Brown as well.
26:10So Zach Taylor definitely went back and talked to Browning at halftime.
26:14And went, sat down with the quarterback and said, what plays work best for you?
26:18So it's almost like a weekday meeting.
26:21Getting that done all at half.
26:22Chase, Stephon stays in and tiptoes along the sideline and has the first down.
26:30It is all the superstar from LSU.
26:34We caught it coming out of half that one would be getting the ball a lot.
26:37And Anthony Campanelli coached me at Rutgers.
26:39I love him.
26:40Coach Camp, put the double team on Jamar Chase.
26:42I don't know what we're waiting for.
26:44But number one is going to be targeted heavily this half.
26:47And the Jags defense have to do a better job of knowing where that number one threat is.
26:54Campanelli, Coach Slogan, Ryan, and Rutgers.
26:57They go way back.
26:59Browning, Campbell.
27:01One hand.
27:02Mitchell Tinsley.
27:04Are you serious?
27:05Mitchell Tinsley.
27:21Mitchell Tinsley.
27:23You want to double Jamar Chase?
27:25Fine.
27:25I got something for you.
27:26The one hand.
27:28The one foot.
27:29But where's the second?
27:30And the shin.
27:31The shin counts as two.
27:33There you go.
27:34The shin counts as two.
27:40Imagine that being your first target of the game.
27:43And that's what you do with it.
27:44That's how you earn more playing time in this league.
27:46He had a breakout preseason.
27:51The former member of Washington had a couple of touchdowns on highlight catches against Washington in the preseason.
27:59They have confirmed that score.
28:03Wow.
28:03That shin in is enough.
28:0513-yard score.
28:12McPherson for the extra point.
28:15And we are tied at 17.
28:18Tinsley's first catch in his NFL career is a stunner to tie it up.
28:30Bengals back in business.

28:40Any other use of this broadcast or any pictures, descriptions, or accounts of the game without the consent of NFL Productions is prohibited.
28:49Second-year man out of Penn State, Mitchell Tinsley, out of all their weapons, makes this catch.
28:55This deserves another look.
28:56Routine as it gets as a wide receiver in DV.
28:58But I told you, great ball, great catch, beats great coverage.
29:02Nothing the DV can do there.
29:04He gets not only one foot, but the shin would count as two.
29:08Now, Mitchell Tinsley, what a heck of a first catch of this game.
29:11He played a couple of games with Washington back in 2023.
29:18He was on their practice squad all of last year.
29:22And a huge preseason got him a spot on this roster.
29:26He had those highlight catches against Washington in their preseason matchup.
29:30Give him a chance from Jake Browning.
29:32And the fade ball, one-hands it in to tie it at 17.
29:41And Pearson kicks off.
29:44This is Parker Washington.
29:46Stops his tracks.
29:48And it's belted back.
29:50The whole special teams unit for the Bengals all over it.
29:53Saturday, 3.30 Eastern.
29:56It's big time when Nebraska hosts 21-ranked Michigan, later Washington.
30:01Thanks on Washington State in primetime.
30:04It all begins with college football today at 3 Eastern on CBS.
30:08And Paramount Plus.
30:10We'll see you in Washington.
30:12I'll be on that Washington-Washington State call.
30:14You know me.
30:14When I'm in the booth, we're going to have a lot of fun.
30:16I'm excited.
30:17But I'm more excited about this half of football here.
30:19It's been a blast so far and still plenty left.
30:24From the 19th, ETN runs into T.J. Slayton and picks up four.
30:33Let's set the scene.
30:35We saw the adjustments made by the Bengals' offense.
30:38Jacksonville's got to go back to their same adjustments.
30:40I believe they should run the ball, get rid of the pre-snap penalty,
30:44simple it for Trevor Lawrence so he can take care of the football.
30:46If he takes care of the football this half, they have enough to win this game.
30:50But if he's careless and his Bengals' defense keeps getting turnovers,
30:54it's going to be a long day for him.
30:55And then over 250 yards of offense in the first half is stellar,
30:59but those turnovers were key.
31:09With ETN in motion, both backs in.
31:12Vaisal Tootin on this carry.
31:13He's a couple of yards shy of the first down
31:16and back-to-back tackles by that guy, T.J. Slayton.
31:20This is a crucial third down to establish momentum in the second half.
31:25You know, the fans are going to get into it.
31:27Does Liam Cohen trust Trevor Lawrence's situation to put it in his hands,
31:30or do they try to run the ball here and convert it on the ground?
31:33You just highlighted it, Logan.
31:41This crowd getting re-energized after that last touchdown catch.
31:49Brenton Strange back near the line of scrimmage.
31:52Third down.
31:53They go to the air.
31:54Lawrence hit as he throws.
31:56Incomplete.
31:57Trey Hendrickson.
31:59Picking up the ball.
32:01Haven't heard the clear whistle yet.
32:02Geno Stone.
32:04Finally the whistle, and they say incomplete.
32:06They allow the clear recovery for Stone in case they decide to take a look.
32:12But the ruling's incomplete.
32:13Incomplete ties.
32:16Hendrickson wanted that forced fumble.
32:18You know he does.
32:20You got to find 91 on third downs.
32:21He's moved around.
32:23He's off the right side now, and he wins the edge immediately.
32:27He hits the hand there.
32:28We're going to take another view at this one.
32:29I know the officials let him play.
32:329.30.
32:339.30 on the game clock.
32:34Hendrickson feels like that's a fumble,
32:36but the pressure by itself gets Jacksonville off the field.
32:40And you brought it up.
32:41Him being moved around.
32:43That's something different in this defense.
32:45It is.
32:45He usually always rushes the left tackle in his career.
32:48He likes rushing against the best.
32:50For the top pass rushers in this league, Micah Parsons,
32:52they get to move around.
32:55And that's what they want to do with him in this game.
32:59Logan Cook.
33:01In the punt.
33:02And it's Charlie Jones standing at the 25 to return for the Bengals.
33:07Good one.
33:08Booming.
33:09It brings Jones back to the 12.
33:12Play your room.
33:14Jones.
33:1423.
33:18But a backup quarterback, Jake Browning,
33:21has a chance to put his team in front.
33:30Let's take a look at the game flow.
33:32It's presented by Progressive Insurance,
33:34and it's out of halftime.
33:35Jake Browning leading the drive.
33:37Well, Chris, I want to hear the halftime speech.
33:40Because Jake Browning came out a new man.
33:41He found his guy, Jamar Chess.
33:43To the right, to the left.
33:45And then, obviously, the fade ball.
33:46Beautiful throw there.
33:49Bengals offense rolling under Browning in the second half.
33:52Well, it is college ball in Washington.
33:57A member of the Vikings practice squad early in his career.
34:00Moved over to Cincinnati for the 2021 season.
34:04Spent a couple of years on the Bengals practice squad
34:06before really getting his moment a couple of seasons ago
34:09to finish out that season.
34:10Last four possessions, including that touchdown,
34:15to open up the second half score.
34:18Tie this one at 17.
34:20Travis Hunter lined up on the far side against Tee Higgins.
34:38Getting this drive from the 23.
34:41Browning.
34:42Open player over the middle is Andre Yosevich.
34:4612-yard gain and a first down and a check-in with New York.
34:50Chris, a Joe Flacco interception leads to this.
35:00Lamar Jackson, second touchdown pass of the day
35:03to the Montez Walker.
35:04It's all Baltimore.
35:0623, back to you.
35:09Looking like an unstoppable offense early in the season,
35:12except late in week one.
35:15With that crazy Bills comeback.
35:20On first, Brown wrapped up and driven down.
35:23Josh Hines-Allen first there.
35:25Campbell came late.
35:27Josh Hines-Allen told us what he believes he is,
35:31which is a top premier rusher in this league as well.
35:33And I know we've highlighted Trey Henderson so much,
35:36but this Jags defense has these premier rushers
35:39in Trayvon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen.
35:40That was a former defensive back.
35:42Just having that pass rush,
35:44what does that allow you to do as a member of that back end?
35:46You've seen what the pass rush has done
35:48for the interception today.
35:49Yeah.
35:49A lot of them started up front with pressures.
35:52It gives you layups in the back end.
35:55Second down, 10 to go.
35:56Browning.
35:58Throws for a sideline.
35:59That's no offense.
36:00Yeah.
36:02Steps out of bounds.
36:04A shy of the 40-yard line.
36:05Call it to 38.
36:06So third down and seven.
36:08Make it six upcoming.
36:11Leads to a third down coming up here.
36:13Beautiful tackle by Eric Murray.
36:15Did not allow any more yards after the catch.
36:18But third downs are so monumental in football games.
36:23I mean, this is what it all comes down to.
36:25Projection.
36:25You've got to stop the bleeding.
36:27Browning has come out hot.
36:28You've got to play tighter coverage,
36:30not allow the easy throw.
36:34Right there, Jacksonville showing pressure.
36:40Browning.
36:41Five in the pattern.
36:43Rolls to the right.
36:44Off the back foot.
36:45Throw is intercepted.
36:47Across the body.
36:48Throw.
36:48Andrew Wingard all over it.
36:51And the former Wyoming Cowboy
36:53tiptoes down the sideline.
36:56Another Cincy interception.
36:58From Browning.
37:00And Jacksonville takes over in plus territory.
37:03The pressure, the tight coverage,
37:06led to the mistake.
37:07Browning has nothing early.
37:09He throws in late into a party
37:11of Jags defenders.
37:14Wingard able to come up with it.
37:16But look at the pressure by Hines Allen
37:17and Walker.
37:18They get Browning uncomfortable.
37:20Anytime you have a backup quarterback
37:22or a guy who's got a lot of reps in there,
37:25you want to make him uncomfortable.
37:26And you ask me, what does the pressure do?
37:28It leads to interceptions.
37:29Right there, right on cue.
37:32Andrew Wingard,
37:35the beneficiary.
37:36Sixth career pick.
37:38Undrafted out of Wyoming back in 2019.
37:41And look at the field position
37:44it gives Trevor Lawrence
37:45and his Jacksonville offense.
37:48From the 30,
37:50it's Tootin.
37:51Escapes a tackle from Stewart.
37:53The rookie could not corral the rookie.
37:56Finally, Logan Wilson makes the tackle.
38:02Stewart, 97,
38:04couldn't make the tackle right there.
38:06You know, he missed a bunch of camp
38:09and offseason with a contract situation.
38:11And I think Basel Tootin
38:13is slowly becoming America's
38:14new favorite running back.
38:15This guy getting a lot of a huge debut here
38:18in some time.
38:19And he's making the most of it.
38:20He was just joining us.
38:21He had a touchdown in the first half
38:23with a dazzling Duke move.
38:26And this time early movement.
38:29Patrick McCary.
38:31Right guard.
38:31Ball start.
38:36Number 65.
38:37Offense.
38:38Five-yard penalty.
38:39Check it out.
38:41The operation,
38:43Coach Liam Cohen said,
38:44was fine enough for game one.
38:46His first career game as a head coach.
38:48It's been a lot more sloppy
38:50here this afternoon.
38:51It's taken a huge step backwards.
38:53And they were surprised,
38:55pleasantly,
38:55of last week not having a lot of it
38:57with a whole new system.
38:58I mean,
38:58these guys are learning Spanish
38:59compared to English
39:00of the play calling.
39:01And some of that's laying on mistakes today.
39:04And no wristband
39:05for Trevor Lawrence
39:06to call these plays this season.
39:08Parker Washington
39:09with blockers in front,
39:11including Anton Harrison
39:12pushing a couple.
39:15That pile moves to the 25.
39:18Chris,
39:18do you find it interesting
39:19that Parker Washington
39:20is getting the workload
39:22I thought a Travis Hunter
39:23would get?
39:24When you draft the guy
39:24number two overall,
39:26I want to see more usage
39:27out of Travis Hunter
39:28either offensively
39:29or defensively.
39:30He just hasn't made the impact
39:32over these first two games yet.
39:34Trade up
39:35to select the guy
39:36who's right now
39:37on the sideline
39:38on this multiple
39:40receiver set.
39:42on third and four.
39:49LaQuint Allen
39:50right near the sticks.
39:52He has just enough
39:53to move the chains.
39:55Hendrickson and Hill
39:56combine on the stop,
39:58but a fresh set of downs
39:59for the Jaguars.
40:01Jacksonville definitely
40:02ran the ball there
40:03to concede the field goal.
40:04But they got another great
40:05young back,
40:06LaQuint Allen,
40:06and they have a good
40:08young running back room.
40:09It's why Tank's
40:10Big B was traded
40:11and these guys
40:12are performing well.
40:16You've highlighted it
40:17a few times, Logan,
40:18put it out cleanly
40:19that the only thing
40:20that stopped the Jaguars
40:21in this game
40:22have been the turnovers.
40:23They've moved the ball.
40:24Etienne on the end
40:29around spins
40:30and gets a chunk there.
40:33Nine on first.
40:35Joseph Osai on that stop.
40:38Liam Cohen's offense
40:39is very condensed.
40:40The receivers are very tight
40:41and that makes the defense
40:42play very tight.
40:44And this is the way
40:44they get outside
40:45with these little speed sweeps
40:47to Etienne.
40:48An easy six yards there
40:49just schematically.
40:52Now if you're Al Golden
40:53here defensively
40:54for your team
40:57to force another turnover
40:58is what they've done
40:59on this area of the field.
41:08Etienne in motion.
41:10They throw it that direction
41:11with Brown leading the way
41:12blocking.
41:13Etienne turns up the field.
41:16Touchdown, Jacksonville.
41:1911-yard score.
41:21Travis Etienne
41:22and the Jags
41:23back in front
41:24here in the third.
41:27When the Jags
41:28don't turn it over
41:29they've been moving the ball
41:30up and down the field.
41:32Simple screenplay to Etienne.
41:33A numbers game
41:34for Trevor Lawrence
41:35and he is too good
41:36with the ball in his hands.
41:38Etienne had a big week
41:39last week
41:39and it looked like
41:40another one this week.
41:44Set up for an explosive season.
41:47Remember, Etienne
41:48over 1,000 yards rushing
41:49his first two healthy seasons.
41:52Last year it was Tank Bigsby
41:54leading the team
41:55in rushing yards
41:56but Etienne is now
41:57the feature guy again.
41:59Caps that one off
42:00on a touchdown reception
42:01as Cam Little
42:02drills the extra points.
42:06Complimentary football.
42:08Pressures lead to interceptions.
42:10Great field position.
42:12Go pitch it out to my guy, Etienne
42:14and go get me seven points.
42:18Like a good neighbor,
42:21State Farm is there.
42:22You've got the game.
42:24Uh-huh.
42:24Get live, local, and primetime games
42:26on mobile with NFL+.
42:27Our departure has been delayed.
42:32Yeah!
42:34NFL+.
42:35Keep the NFL in reach
42:37on CBS.
42:38After the interception
42:41thrown by Jake Routing,
42:43the Jaguars take advantage
42:44short field,
42:45five plays
42:46and a Travis Etienne touchdown.
42:49First three touchdown
42:50passing game
42:51for Trevor Lawrence
42:51since a couple of seasons ago
42:53against Cleveland.
42:59And it's been back and forth
43:01fun, big plays
43:02on each side.
43:04So my J.P. Ryan
43:05from the five.
43:06Get off, Ryan!
43:06Accelerates.
43:09Hit hard.
43:10Stays on his feet somehow.
43:12Houdini's
43:13past the 35-yard line.
43:17BB's biggest nine
43:18is almost here.

43:21of television's best

43:27right here on CBS.
43:32Seeing Alan Eck
43:33or as a pedally marker in,
43:35came after the kickoff.
43:36after the play was over,
43:41a personal foul,
43:42unnecessary roughness,
43:43number 56 in the defense.
43:4515-yard penalty.
43:46First shot.
43:4956 is just here,
43:50Abdullah.
43:53See Abdullah right here.
43:59It's never the first man
44:00that gets caused.
44:01Number the second.
44:02Retaliation there.
44:03Couldn't see much
44:04from that view,
44:04but that is costly
44:06to your team,
44:07that 15 yards there.
44:08Give the Bengals
44:09the ball
44:10and the plus 50.
44:11And for just joining us,
44:12Joe Burrow
44:13left the game,
44:14left toe
44:15in the second quarter.
44:16Since then,
44:17it's been Jake Browning
44:18at quarterback
44:19for the Bengals,
44:20and he hands it off
44:21to Brown.
44:22It's about to see
44:23a lot of the feature
44:24back in his third year.
44:26Trayvon Walker
44:26on the stop.
44:28So this is Burrow
44:29back in the second quarter.
44:30It was a pressure.
44:34Arm set on his ankle there.
44:36Joe Burrow kind of
44:36gets caught up.
44:37It looked routine,
44:38and then he limped off.
44:41Ends up being
44:41a left toe injury,
44:42we're told.
44:43Has not returned yet.
44:45We don't know
44:45if there'll be a return.
44:47But I want to see
44:47what Jake Browning can do.
44:49Had the touchdown drive,
44:50then the interception.
44:51How did he respond?
44:51Hand off here
44:55against just a couple,
44:56so a third down.
44:57And this is a situation
44:58that I'm interested in
44:59with Zach Taylor, right?
45:00You have a quarterback
45:01and Jake Browning
45:02to back up.
45:03You're in the middle
45:04of the field here.
45:05This is usually
45:06a passing down,
45:07and he's shown
45:09the tendency
45:09at least a couple of times
45:10to put the ball
45:11in harm's way.
45:12Well, you're scared to death
45:13because of last turnover.
45:15Zach Taylor feels like
45:15that touchdown's on him
45:16because the quarterback's
45:17interception gave Jacksonville
45:19a short field.
45:20They may run the ball
45:21twice here
45:22or a quick screen.
45:23It could be four down
45:24territory for him.
45:25But this is going to be
45:26a short throw
45:27for Browning.
45:30Everybody near the line
45:32of scrimmage.
45:32Third down,
45:33Browning.
45:34To the air!
45:35He gets!
45:36But doesn't matter!
45:39Touchdown, Bengals!
45:48It's a Browning bonanza!
45:50In the jungle!
45:55Short throw,
45:56or just throw the ball up
45:57to T. Higgins.
45:58Wins at the line
45:59right away.
46:00Stacks his receiver inside.
46:02You're not big enough.
46:03Get off me.
46:04Let me look back at him.
46:05T. Higgins,
46:06he got his money
46:07this year, too.
46:08They have two number one
46:09wide receivers
46:10in Cincinnati.
46:11A lot of coin
46:12being handed out
46:13to the playmakers
46:14for Cincinnati.
46:17They get to chase
46:18each with touchdowns.
46:20Kevin McPherson
46:22put it on the board.
46:25Tied up at 24
46:27and a final one
46:29in Cincinnati.
46:30Higgins
46:32putt by a couple.
46:34Yeah, he's too strong.
46:35This game
46:37too good.
46:4017th,
46:41part of CBS Premiere Week.
46:47Tied at 24.
46:49What a play
46:49for the Bengals.
46:50Let's break down
46:51the T. Higgins touchdown.
46:52Top of your screen there.
46:53And you're gonna see
46:54right away,
46:55right away,
46:55he wins.
46:56When he's even,
46:57he's leaving.
46:58He's the only orange helmet
46:59atop.
47:00And he's gonna get the ball
47:01and look at the throw
47:01by Browning
47:02right to T. Higgins.
47:04You cannot get beat
47:05inside and on top
47:06as a corner.
47:07Tyson Campbell knows that
47:09and these guys
47:10are just too good
47:10to get that free release
47:11up at the line of scrimmage.
47:14And the ball
47:14in a perfect place.
47:16Credit to the quarterback.
47:19Washington
47:20from the goal line.
47:22Runs across sides
47:23of the field
47:24and hits a wall.
47:26Stays on his feet
47:27but driven back.
47:29Ball spotted
47:30at the 25.
47:31Let's go down to Tiff
47:33for a check
47:33on the Bengals defense.
47:35Hey guys,
47:35I was behind the bench
47:36listening to
47:37defensive line coach
47:38Jerry Montgomery
47:39address his guys
47:40and it was silent
47:41as they all listened
47:42to the long talk
47:43that he was giving them.
47:44A bit uncharacteristic
47:45play from this group.
47:46We've seen it
47:46when the Bengals offense
47:47has been off
47:48and the defense
47:49has given them that boost.
47:50Now we get to see
47:51how they respond
47:52after the Bengals touchdown, guys.
47:54And that's your side
47:55of the ball, Logan.
47:56Being able to play
47:56off of energy too
47:57matters.
47:58And you hear the crowd.
47:59The crowd truly
48:00your 12th man in football
48:01and they're off
48:02all their feet.
48:03If you can hear
48:03the crowd at home,
48:04it's deafening
48:05for a player on the field.
48:11Tootin.
48:13Boy, does he run hard.
48:14First contact usually
48:16doesn't stop him.
48:18Keeps it moving.
48:19Picks up seven.
48:21The Bengals defense
48:23been opportunistic today.
48:25The pressure by Henderson
48:26leads to the interception
48:28there in the end zone.
48:29And then a business decision
48:31by Brian Thomas
48:32leads to the overthrow.
48:33They are capitalizing
48:34on the mistakes
48:35of Trevor Lawrence today.
48:36Now, tip balls
48:39have been pickballs
48:40for Al Goulden's team
48:41over these last couple
48:43of weeks.
48:44Two last week
48:45on tip passes
48:45and crunch time.
48:47Bobble on the snap.
48:48Lawrence picks it up.
48:49Sneaks ahead.
48:52Mistakes,
48:52whether it's pre-snap
48:53or on the snap.
48:55But still a recovery
48:56for Trevor Lawrence
48:59to move the chains.
49:00The offense definitely
49:02has a lot more bumps
49:03in the road
49:04than we thought.
49:05Just not getting there,
49:07not staying under there.
49:08You never know
49:09if that's on the center
49:10or the quarterback.
49:11Regardless,
49:11it can't happen.
49:13Luckily,
49:14he's able to pick it up
49:15and sneak it
49:15and actually get
49:16the first down.
49:19Some improv
49:20from Lawrence.
49:28On first,
49:29Scrains in the flat.
49:31The rookie Knight
49:32all over him.
49:35Not much there
49:36as Scrains
49:37is brought down
49:38by Knight's
49:38rookie from South Carolina.
49:42Demetrius Knight
49:42is a rookie,
49:43like you said,
49:44but he doesn't play like it.
49:45He's earned the job.
49:46He's earned the responsibility.
49:48And he's really been
49:49operating Al Goulden's
49:50defense well.
49:52He's somebody
49:52that Al Goulden,
49:54all of the Cincinnati staff
49:56tie on.
49:58Somebody,
49:58they say,
50:00his give-a-dark factor
50:01is as high as anybody.
50:03Talking about a guy
50:04who used to be
50:04a DoorDash driver
50:05back in college.
50:07No,
50:08he's a hard worker.
50:08The way to the
50:17next level,
50:18it looks like
50:18you go around
50:19KX
50:19or
50:20a
50:20movie
50:21how we
50:21can
50:22see you
50:23as
50:24one,
50:25you
50:26can
50:26see it to
50:27you
50:28from the
