The 13th week of the 2024 National Football League regular season is now finished. Here are the top five headlines.

5) Cincinnati’s defense responsible for another loss.

The Cincinnati Bengals poor defense was once again the reason why they lost a football game. This time the player who feasted on the Bengals was quarterback Russell Wilson.

Four times this season, Cincinnati has scored 33+ points and lost.

3) Josh Allen dazzles in the snow.

In extreme winter conditions, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen of Firebaugh, California was tremendous.
