CINCINNATI (AP) - Aaron Rodgers led Green Bay to a big first half Thursday night, running for 52 yards and two touchdowns during a 27-13 preseason victory over Cincinnati.
Rodgers led the way for the Packers (No. 1 in the AP Pro32), going 12 of 22 for 154 yards with an interception. He scrambled six times, scoring on runs of 12 and 5 yards.
Running back Cedric Benson made his Packers debut against his former team and ran six times for 38 yards. Benson led the Bengals (No. 14) in rushing each of the last four years, but they decided to let him leave as a free agent and signed BenJarvus Green-Ellis.

The Bengals (2-1) played their starters into the third quarter but they couldn't get a touchdown, failing even on a first-and-goal from the 1-yard line. Andy Dalton played the entire first half and the opening series of the third quarter, going 5 of 17 for 40 yards and two sacks. He scrambled three times for 36 yards.
