Watch: Brian Baldinger Highlights Cincinnati's Physicality Against Buffalo

CINCINNATI — NFL Network analyst Brian Baldinger loved the pain Cincinnati brought to Buffalo on Sunday afternoon.

The Bengals ran the ball for 172 yards, including 105 for Joe Mixon, in a great team victory. Baldinger highlighted some of the lesser talked about players in the run game.

"Watch this block by Ja'Marr Chase," Baldinger said. "I can show you all the catches, all the run after the catches, the touchdowns, all that stuff, but this block right here on Shaq Lawson. Like he gets him in the air right here, and that allows Mixon to get outside."

Baldinger also loved the blitzing he saw out of Mike Hilton. The corner had four pressures on just five blitz snaps.

"Hilton recognizes and beats the block of Isaiah McKenzie and he takes down James Cook for a solo tackle," Baldinger said. "The guy is just a pit bull. That's how he plays the game. Now, watch this right here. This blitz, like, from the sky. Like right here, Josh Allen was looking the other way, and he gets the ball out. He (Hilton) comes like a bat out of hell is what he does."

.@Bengals @MikeHilton_28 is a “Pit Bull”. Always in ATTACK mode. If I was @chiefs I would have a “Mike Hilton Alert” up every play. And you know if they have success with his blitz that they will keep him a coming #whodey #BaldysBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/urF2gax7Wj
