Overview

• Detroit beat Cincinnati 37-24 in Week 5, dropping the Bengals to 2-3 as their offense again struggled early before late touchdowns narrowed the margin.
• Jake Browning threw three interceptions before three fourth-quarter scores and later said he "played awful" and must stop turning the ball over.
• Head coach Zac Taylor said he believes Browning can win games, took blame for offensive issues, and acknowledged the staff will evaluate all personnel, including quarterback.
• The team has not engaged in trade talks for veteran quarterbacks and plans to stick with Browning for now, with internal options including Brett Rypien, Mike White and Sean Clifford.
• Since replacing the injured Joe Burrow, Browning’s efficiency has ranked near the bottom of the league and his turnovers have set up short fields for opponents, intensifying scrutiny ahead of Week 6 at Green Bay.
