Bengals vs. Giants score: Cincinnati wins ugly 17-7 defensive slugfest at the Meadowlands on Sunday Night Football

Greg Joseph missed a 45-yard field goal with 55 seconds left, as the Giants tried to cut the game to just one possession, and Cincinnati will kneel it out for the

the 30-yard rush came with just under two minutes remaining in the game, and gave the Bengals a two score lead.

On a third and 12, Burrow scrambled to his right and found Andrei Iosivas for the big conversion.

D.J. Turner breaks up the pass, and the Giants turn it over on downs with three minutes left in the game. The Bengals lead 10-7 and can close the deal with a couple of first downs.

A huge third down run by Tyrone Tracy has the Giants in Bengals territory again. In the second half, the Giants have had some success running the ball and nickle and diming their way down the field.

Burrow was hit by Brian Burns to force a 3rd down incompletion and a Bengals punt, but all eyes will be on Burrow and if he can return to the game. Here's the play that sent Burrow to the tent.

Giants come up empty after another plodding, methodical that included a fourth down conversion. Cincinnati still leads 10-7 in a game that has been highlighted by excellent play by both defensive lines.

This time it was the 6-foot-5 Daniel Jones taking it on a QB sneak at the 45-yard-line in Bengals territory.

Daniel Jones hit his tight end Theo Johnson to open the series with the first down off a play action pass. That was the final play of the third quarter and the Giants are trailing 10-7.

When you've been playing together as long as these two, this stuff just happens.

16 plays, 79-yards and two fourth down conversions on the way to the end zone, and the Giants score an offensive touchdown at MetLife stadium for the first time in 2024.

Darius Slayton drew the foul, and the Giants are in business

Tyrone Tracy bounces it outside, and his secondary burst got the first down for the Giants, who've gotten the ball into field goal range.

The Giants run an old freeze option, out of a college playbook to give themselves some breathing rom with a second first down on the drive.

Azeez Ojulari again! This time forcing a fumble with the crown of his helmet, and the first Cincinnati turnover of the game couldn't have come at a better time for the Giants.

An inaccurate throw from Daniel Jones that Darius Slayton couldn't dig off the turf, a short loss on a run by Tyrone Tracy Jr., a short completion to tight end Theo Johnson and a Mike Hilton pass breakup. An extremely rough series for the Giants and Cincy takes over at the 38-yard-line in plus territory.

The two defenses have dominated the game. Other than the big run by Joe Burrow, neither offense has done much. Burrow and Jones are still their teams' leading rushers, and neither has been spectacular throwing the football. Burrow is 9-of-15 for 87 yards and Jones is 8-of-16 for 81 yards.

The Giants have sacked Burrow three times and the Bengals have taken Jones down once, and a pressure forced the game's only turnover.

Both offenses need to make some adjustments to get the ball moving, but both teams should be happy with their defensive efforts.

Also, in a low-scoring game, special teams may play a factor, and Giants' punt returner Ihmir Smith-Marsette left the game with a foot injury and is questionable to return.

The Giants now have three sacks in the game after coming into Week 6 leading the league in that category.

Even without Kayvon Thibedaux, the Giants are finding edge rushers to keep Burrow in the pocket and get him on the ground after his long run earlier.

A huge missed opportunity for New York, and they'll have to punt deep in their own end. That penalty could be a turning point in the game if the Bengals are able to go down and add to their lead at the two minute warning.

The Giants were flagged for ineligible player down field on an RPO pass. The play would have been, by far, the longest of the day for the Giants.

Pinnock left the game after Joe Burrow's 47-yard touchdown run, and has yet to return to the game.

The two quarterbacks have done the heavy lifting on the ground tonight. Jones (three rushes, 28 yards) and Burrow (two carries, 57 yards) are the leading rushers in the game so far.

A 14-yard penalty on first down by Burrow to set up 2nd and forever for the Bengals from deep in their own end

Chase Brown has been a focal point of the Cincinnati Offense in the early going with three carries for 13 yards and an 11-yard reception. The drive stalling out though, thanks to the Giants' defensive line. Brian Burns stuffing Zach Moss on the final play of the 1st quarter with the Bengals leading 7-0.

B.J. Hill forced the pressure, and Cincinnati stops the Giants' march. Daniel Jones and company were moving the ball well before the interception, and now the Bengals take over in the waning minutes of the first quarter.

Darius Slayton gets Big Blue into Bengals territory, and the Giants follow that up with a 14-yard screen pass to Tyrone Tracy Jr., who's filling in the backfield for the injured Devin Singletary.

Cincinnati nearly had a safety on their hands on their second series, but Joe Burrow spun out of a sack to throw the ball away. The Giants take over in their end, midway through the first quarter

After a quick first down catch by Darius Slayton on their first offensive snap, the Giants punted it back to the Bengals. New York threw the ball on all four plays — the club is without lead back Devin Singletary for a second straight week as he tries to work his way back from a groin injury.

Yes, you read that correctly, and no, that's not Lamar Jackson in a Bengals jersey. A play after a sack, Burrow sets a new career-best with a 47-yard scramble for a score.

The No. 1 sack team in the NFL is at it again on the first drive. Burns, who inked a 5-year, $114 million deal with the Giants, is making good on that big payday early on against Cincinnati.

A third down scramble by Joe Burrow and an 11-yard reception by Tee Higgins have the Bengals on the move and in Giants territory.
