Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase have been a huge part of the Cincinnati Bengals offense this season, but this time, they delivered a pair of dramatic plays.
The second touchdown lifted the Bengals into a tie against the San Francisco 49ers. Chase caught a 32-yard touchdown on a go route along the sideline with 1:19 remaining to make it a 20-20 game. It was the second fourth-quarter touchdown for the connection of former LSU stars as the Bengals completed a huge comeback after they trailed 17-6 at halftime.
After San Francisco 49ers kicker Robbie Gould missed a 47-yarder at the buzzer, the game went to overtime.
