Christian Benford returned a fourth-quarter interception for a touchdown as the Buffalo Bills kept pace in the playoff chase by rallying from a late 10-point deficit in the snow for a 39-34 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at Orchard Park, N.Y.

Down 28-25 with less than six minutes remaining, Benford scored when he blitzed off the edge, made a leaping pick of Joe Burrow's lob and dashed 63 yards for the Bills' first lead at 32-28. AJ Epenesa picked off Burrow's next throw, and Josh Allen hit Jackson Hawes on fourth down for a 3-yard score to lift Buffalo (9-4) to its fifth win in the past seven games.
