What happened: Atlanta marched down the field for a touchdown on its first possession of Sunday's Week 9 game against Cincinnati in Madrid.

Why it matters: The Bengals arrived in Spain at 5-2 and were weighing a Nov. 10 trade-deadline market.

What to watch: Cincinnati's defense allowed 36 points to Tennessee in Week 8, and Atlanta's offense now has to sustain the drive's pace through the rest of the game.
