Six facts about the Bengals and Bills, who meet at 1 p.m. Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium:

• Bengals running back Jeremy Hill has rushed for a touchdown in three consecutive games for the first time in his career, but he’s only halfway to Rudi Johnson’s franchise record of six set in 2005.

• The Bills have had five players – LeSean McCoy, Tyrod Taylor, Mike Gillislee, Jonathan Williams Reggie Bush – rush for a touchdown this season, which is the most in the NFL.

• With sacks in each of his last two games, Cincinnati’s Geno Atkins has 47.5 since 2010, most in the league by a defensive tackle.

• The Bills are the most consistent offense in the league in terms of points per quarter, scoring 58 in the first, 59 in the second, 58 in the third and 62 in the fourth.

• The Bengals are 24-6-1 in their last 31 home games (excluding the “home” game in London Oct. 30), which is the best mark in franchise history over any stretch of 31 games.

• Buffalo has scored at least 25 points in five consecutive games, and if the Bills are able to reach that total Sunday it will be the first time since 2004 they have done it in six straight.
