And a child shall lead them.
Jordan Franks caught a 32-yard pass on his first NFL snap to highlight a drive Joe Mixon's one-yard touchdown run with 3:04 left in the first quarter to jump-start the Bengals' 27-9 halftime lead.
The Bengals defense did its share with two interceptions of Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston in the half, two sacks and they did not allow the NFL's No. 1 offense points until 4:36 left in the half when wide receiver DeSean Jackson ran by William Jackson for a 60-yard touchdown play.
It appeared Will be shadowing DeSean, an uncharacteristic move by the Bengals scheme, but it looks like Will be looking for help on DeSean's streaking post. After Randy Bullock missed an extra point, he then kicked the ball out of bounds to give Tampa Bay the ball at its 40 with 2:34 left. The Bengals forced Chandler Catanzaro's 25-yard field goal with three seconds left when Winston overthrew wide receiver Mike Evans covered in the end zone by cornerback Dr Kirpatrick.
This was the last time in the last 24 games in Bengals foe had scored in the last two minutes of the half, but it was not a good time. against the NFL's last-ranked defense.
Andy Dalton went after a Tampa Bay defense allowing a 125 passer rating with a 129.6 of his own. He hit 13 of 20 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns, the last one coming with 2:34 left on a 17-yard fade where wide receiver A.J. Green out-jumped corner rookie Carlton Davis III.
Wide receiver Tyler Boyd also only needed to join the 100-yard club with 112 on six catches.
Clint Boling (back) and rush end Carl Lawson (knee).
Franks, undrafted out of Central Florida, Mason Schreck became the third tight end to Kansas City. When C.J. Uzomah, the last tight end of training camp, re-injured a shoulder on the second series, Franks found himself going on the road and running down the right sideline on Devonte Bond linebacker. Dalton put it right there at the Tampa 31 and two snaps later he went back to Boyd and they probably should have given him the touchdown when he did it on the pylon at the end of the 28-yard play that set up Mixon's TD.
Uzomah did return.
Up 7-0, the Bengals picked up Winston a second time, this time defensive Sam Hubbard contained Winston in the pocket, mirrored his moves and then got his hand on the road Preston Brown to set the Bengals up their own 42.
The series was a grind job. Marvin Lewis went for it to fourth on the second time in the game on fourth-and-third of the Bucs 36. Green pick a good time to make his first catch the day with 10:53 left in the first half on a sliding seven-yarder out of the slot. Then Mixon rolled for 21 we misdirection sweep where he took off behind Glenn as they moved to the right.
They went up 14-0 when Dalton lined up three receivers to his left with Boyd, Green and Alex Erickson from third in the Tampa Bay 9. Linebacker Adarius Taylor had no chance against Boyd down the seam he plucked Dalton's bullet by barely turning around.
After the Bengals kept swarming Winston (left end Carlos Dunlap dropped back Ronald Jones II for a loss in the backfield and Hubbard added a sack), Boyd strafed that shaky secondary for 45 yards on two catches and Mixon walked in behind right guard Alex Redmond and center Trey Hopkins for an eight-yard touchdown with 5:07 left in the half.
Then Mixon put on his show to the next series to set up Green's TD at the end of the half with the longest run of his career, a 43-yarder he began stalking the left perimeter. A couple of jump-cuts and missed tackles in the middle of the field, the ball was at the Bucs 17 and Green was waiting.
This video was written by Bengals safety Shawn Williams in the middle of the first quarter in a 0-0 game the Bucs had blasted into the red zone at the 18. Goal Winston threw a touchdown pass to Williams instead of Evans .
The Bengals ended the half with eight interceptions on the season after getting 11 all last year.
