CINCINNATI (AP) — The Bengals have a chance to move into contention in the AFC North, but it’s a long road back.
And it starts in Pittsburgh on Sunday.
The 2-3 Bengals play four road games in the next five weeks, a stretch that will either set them up for a playoff run or leave them so far behind that they’d need a collapse by the rest of the division to have a chance at the postseason.
Pittsburgh leads the division at 4-2 and have won seven of the past eight meetings with Cincinnati.
