Preview of the Titans and Bengals matchup.
The Tennessee Titans are coming off of their first loss of the season as they travel to face the Cincinnati Bengals and Joe Burrow.
In Ohio, the Titans will look to secure another critical AFC victory before a brutal four-game stretch. The game will kick off at 12:00 P.M. CT at Paul Brown Stadium on CBS.
After a brutal first half against the Pittsburgh Steelers last week, the Titans rebounded in the second half and closed a 27-7 gap. Unfortunately, an intentional grounding call forced Tennessee to settle for a potentially game-tying 45-yard field goal kick from Stephen Gostkowski. You know what happened after that.
Just north of Nashville, the Bengals had their own devastating loss last week against their Ohio rivals, the Cleveland Browns. Behind rookie quarterback Joe Burrow, the Bengals drove down for what seemed to be a game-winning drive by scoring a touchdown with one minute left in the game. However, the Bengals defensive gave up a touchdown to the Browns with 11 seconds left and lost the game.
While the Bengals are looking to build consistency in their offense, the Titans need to win to keep pace for the top seed in the AFC. The Bengals have been a frisky team all season and the Titans need to be well-prepared if they want to pull out a victory.
