Game Preview: Bengals at Browns | Week 14
The Bengals’ win over the Jets featured the return of QB Andy Dalton, who was back in the starting lineup for the first time after serving as a reserve for Games 9-11. Dalton completed 22 of 37 passes for 243 yards and a TD (88.0 rating) in the win, however his performance may be remembered most for passing former Bengals QB Ken Anderson for the franchise records in career TD passes and career completions. Dalton now has passed for 198 TDs (Anderson had 197) and 2669 completions (Anderson had 2654).
The Bengals today activated WR John Ross to the 53-player roster from the Reserve/Injured list and waived WR Damion Willis.
The Bengals designated Ross to return from Reserve/Injured on Nov. 13, at which time he returned to practice but did not count against the team’s roster limit. He is the second of two possible players the team may return to the active roster from R/I this season. The other was CB Darius Phillips, who was activated to the roster on Nov. 29.

Zac Taylor and the Cincinnati Bengals are relieved to not be winless
For the first-year coach Sunday’s win was a long time coming. Taylor’s had an inauspicious start to his head coaching career. His rookie first-round pick had season-ending shoulder surgery in the offseason, on the very first day of training camp the Bengals’ best player went down with a left ankle injury and still hasn’t been able to play, the injury bug attacked the team on both sides of the ball and the club got off to its worst start in franchise history.

Panthers owner explains decision to fire Ron Rivera
"I came here two years ago. I wanted to show patience on the football side to see how it was going. On the business side we made vast and sweeping changes, and I didn't want to make those vast and sweeping changes on the football side. I wanted to take time and patience to see what could go and how it could go," Tepper said in a video interview released by the team. "I just thought it was time given the way things have gone the last two seasons to put my stamp on this organization on the football side as we've done on the business side of the organization. As much respect as I have for Ron, I think a change was appropriate to build things they way I want things to be built."
