A Denver Broncos offense that gained just 125 yards in the first half against the Cincinnati Bengals rallied for 21 points in the third quarter to grab a 28-27 lead.

Following a 22-yard touchdown pass from Andy Dalton to Giovanni Bernard gave the Bengals a 27-14 lead, Peyton Manning engineered two lengthy scoring drives to give Denver the lead.

Manning hooked up with Emmanuel Sanders for a pair of touchdowns, a 4-yard and 5-yard score, respectively, to rally Denver to take the lead. After being held to just 88 yards passing with an interception in the first half, Manning has been much better after the break.
