Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green vs. Cowboys cornerback Morris Claiborne: A.J. Green ranks third in the NFL in receiving yards with 468 and has two touchdowns. He’s among the best receivers in the game and poses a big challenge to the Cowboys’ secondary. But cornerback Morris Claiborne is having a breakout season and should be ready for the challenge. Claiborne has not been beaten for a touchdown yet, and recorded his first interception in more than two years last week at San Francisco.
