The past two weeks have been rough for the Cincinnati Bengals.
After blowing a late lead in Week 8 to hand the New York Jets their first win, the Bengals followed that up with another crushing loss to the Chicago Bears. Now, the Bengals are on a two-game losing streak and are in danger of seeing their season slip away.
Specifically, it's been the Bengals defense that has been struggling mightily, as the unit has allowed 86 points in the last two weeks. What makes it even worse is that the Bengals' offense has scored 38 and 42 points in those contests, respectively, but neither score was enough to win the game.
Fortunately for the Bengals, they get a respite this week with their bye week and a chance to regroup for the stretch run.
Here's everything that you need to know about whether the Bengals play today, including schedule, time, and channel for their next football game.
