lineman on that play motion man is Henry a first down from the 34 fake the hand off foret step and a flip to Stevenson again likes the contact Logan Wilson was there waiting for him picks up C Bengals keep saying the defense of New England it's in their DNA they always play good defense and they run the football with Stevenson chewing up yards into Cincinnati territory that's good for seven impounded at teams and they're unable to stop you first down here for New England at the 43 Stevenson tried to slash and he's brought down after the gain of one in weak one Everybody's Got Strong opinions and then you have to actually go play the game fake it brassette Powers it downfield and hooks up with Thon for a first down the end zone here first down give it to Gibson trying to Loop it inside and we've got good team good players and they executed in the first half first play from scrimmage they going long ball and it's over the head of taquon thoron on a go route incomplete second and 10 you've got to try and continue to create space and have space to run the ball up front shotgun here for the nine-year veteran brassette in some trouble brette gets out of it and lunges across the 35 yd line so what could have been a big loss turkey bow this year and now it's a third and four Stevenson in there Patriots looking to convert pret bounces off W be tacklers and Brett has to Chuck it away Pats go three and out and will punt it Earley Jones The Deep man standing at the 20 yd line for Cincinnati no rush clean punt for baringer to try to pin the Bengals back Jones from the 10 54 yd kick the ball pops free Patriots have it turnover Bengals Jaylen Hawkins on the recovery for New [Applause] England nothing going right for Cincinnati and the Andrews is the other Cardona just forced that fumble and now Andrews will snap it to brassette first down in Cincinnati territory Stevenson tried the zigzag move and Stevenson gets caught after the one-yard pickup check in with Evan yeah I another crazy stat Cincinnati last year all of last season only lost two fumbles they've lost two fumbles today in the season opener on the give Stevenson rumbling to the 20 3 and2 y pickup and now the Pats will face a third down the good ones people gravitate towards third down and six brassette the soft toss short of the line to gain to Stevenson and he gets hit immediately by Von Bell it's a three-yard he was a kicker and linebacker in high school in Stafford Virginia 35 yd attempt Sly connects 13 nothing Patriots y first down for Cincinnati at its own 30 yd line they have been held to 80 yds on offense burrow deals on the pass to the outside Jamar Chase tackle made by but all that being said they haven't gotten enough of a cushion out of the misu and taking it away from Cincinnati only 13 points and only four first downs for Cincinnati so far as Zach Moss was trying to get to the for the running back gets moss on the back field but Burrows is going to do it himself first down Cincinnati 2yd pick up for burrow good read by burrow too because the way they stacked it he with the Pats first down burrow from the gun he delivers it to Chase short of a first down those two have combined for 27 touchdowns since 2021 that's the second most among any teammates and number N9 minutes to play in the third quarter Brown in the back field burrow Waits and hits irn on the Crosser for a first down tackle made by jabil Peppers who was rewarded with a new contract three years their offense so new set of downs for Cincinnati in New England territory inside the 45 they sell the fake burrow soft toss and hit on the catch Chase Brown was tth and scoring defense they were excellent against the run it kept them in a bunch of games they ended up going 4 and eight in gamees decided by seven points or fewer underneath to giki short of the first down game that make you better and keep you in the league longer third down and short burrow it bounces off the hands of Hudson and almost intercepted now now what do you do I think they're going to stay on the field and go for it I really do that's a long field moving and he's going to take this opportunity now it would have been a 54 yd field goal attempt instead it's a fourth and two with 708 to go on the third Burl delivers the hands I don't think he got there Yosi BOS didn't the Patriots stop him Joey Chestnut the belt stays with Chestnut Patriots take over from the 35 Stevenson gets to the edge and leans forward out near the 40 yd line give him five yards on the pickup Mike Hill they're doing an excellent job of taking care of things at the Los hand off to Stevenson tough inside run for two and when we asked Gerard Mayo about the offensive line he said they brought in Kaden Wallace as the extra offensive lineman third down and three brassette sensing the pressure gets rid of it incomplete the Mario Douglas the intended target and brassette just took a serious shot from Logan Wilson brassette baringer putting it to Charlie Jones standing at his own 13 returnable at the 11 holding on and going down Brendan schooler special team team standout for the Patriots and that fumble forced him into that Colorado State he wants a shot this year can Cincinnati get something going here burrow airs it out yeah it's going to be a flag flag is down as Yosi Vash was grappling with Marco Wilson burrow is 16 of 20 for 102 yds but no big explosive plays Zach Moss carries the pile with him out across the 35 yd line that's a big reason why he was brought here to Cincinnati that physical style lington was the defensive line coach second down and three there's a hole Moss burst through it for a first down into New England territory at the 47 yd so first down for the Bengals just 41 yds on the ground Chase Brown now in there fake it on the boot burrow sells it and his pass is incomplete yosif the intended target downstairs to Evan wber going to run it out a gun that's what you need to do they lined up in shotgun 84% out of plays last year third in the NFL behind Philly and Indianapolis this one is a hit to chase first down4 yds give it to Brown Chase Brown didn't go down on First Contact someone grabbed his undershirt T was yanking on it we're seeing that this drive second and two under three minutes to play in the third Bengals still looking for their first point to the day

of scrimmage maybe a gain of half a yard here for the pets shotgun brassette guns it lunging attempt and Hooper makes the play first down Patriots that's a through the air 34 yds on the ground it's a running play Stevenson makes a man miss with a shake and bake move and then they just charge at the football led by Pratt and Wilson eatings you become a better football osmosis seventh play of the drive on a second down and six Antonio Gibson gets stood up and dropped at the 35 yard line that's a gain of two coach cower standing by NFL but here's where Cincinnati you got to get him out of field goal position third and four brette a cannon to Henry first down key throws from Jobe brette on into a nine-point game on you again you're trying to stay in that striking range with them on the give to Gibson Gibson goes head first minutes off the clock shotgun brette short toss and Stevenson gets stamped by Pratt defensively rette dials it up completion to off born but short of the line of game field goal unit will come on he's made kicks of 32 yards 35 yds the 37 Y is good 167 but worth keeping an eye on here down the stretch and he's working out of the gun here on first down burrow he
