The Bengals offense has been putrid to open the season. The team hasn’t scored a touchdown in five quarters. But A.J. Green did his best to take care of it himself.

Eluding defenders, Green came down with a 54-yard catch from Andy Dalton, helping the Bengals get into field goal range to tie the Texans at 3-3 in the second quarter.
