Cowboys 20, Bengals 17

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Bengals coach Zac Taylor and quarterback Joe Burrow both talked about how much season is left to be played.

They also said pretty much every team will have a two-game losing streak.

Unfortunately for the defending AFC champion Bengals, they have one to start the season.

Burrow was sacked six more times in a 20-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

A week after Pittsburgh won on a field goal in overtime, the Cowboys won with a 50-yarder on the final play of regulation.

The Bengals are the first defending AFC champion to open with consecutive losses since 1999.
