The special teams weren’t particularly special in this game (see what I did there?).

Jacoby Jones did have one good return that he took back to the 40-yard-line, but other than that he was pretty much stagnant. He returned two punts, totaled just two yards, and fumbled one of them.

Justin Tucker missed his first field goal attempt of the season – a 55-yarder in the first half. However, he did hit a big 38-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to cut the Bengals’ lead to five.

Sam Koch did a nice job, with four punts totaling to 169 yards – a 42.3 yard-per-punt average.

Grade – B-
