Marcus Reyes: "Both teams threw it all over the field and it worked—Simpson had 608 yards and 6 touchdowns, Stafford matched him with 6 of his own—but Atlanta's 4 interceptions and 5 turnovers total turned what looked like an offensive showcase into a 21-point rout. Cincinnati was cleaner with 1 pick and 2 giveaways, which against a team that loose was the difference between competitive and over." Devon Walker: "Cincinnati's defense never had to show up. Atlanta threw it 55 times and turned it over 5 times—Stafford needed just 18 completions to match Simpson's 6 touchdowns because the Bengals weren't burning energy stopping the run or chasing ghosts downfield."
