Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals carved through the porous New York Giants' pass offense on their way to a 31-13 win.

Dalton went 21-for-30 for 199 yards and four touchdowns. A.J. Green continued his excellent 2012 season and backed up his Giants' trash talk with seven catches for 85 yards and a 56-yard touchdown.

BenJarvus Green-Ellis carried 15 times for 50 yards.

Eli Manning continued his mid-season struggles, going 29-for-46 for 215 yards and two interceptions.

Andre Brown rushed seven times for 65 yards and a touchdown, his sixth on the season despite just 53 carries.

A.J. Green Sees Vulnerabilities In Giants' 26th Ranked Pass Defense

Sep 14, 2014 10:38 PM

A.J. Green admitted to seeing vulnerabilities in the 26th ranked New York Giants' pass defense ahead of Sunday's game.

“I feel like they’ve got a lot of holes in their defense,” Green said.

Green does respect the Giants' defensive line.

“Their front four, they get so much pressure on the quarterback,” he said. “A lot of people don’t have that much time to get the big plays on them. We just have to be solid up front and then we’ll see what happens." 

Green leads the NFL in receptions and touchdowns on throws outside the painted numbers.
