If the Denver Broncos’ push for the playoffs is going to continue, they will need to go on the road and pick up a win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Fortunately for them, that is a team they have had plenty of success against.

The Broncos have won three of the last four games played in Cincinnati, the most memorable of which taking place back in 2009 and ending in dramatic fashion.

For those reasons, and the fact that the Bengals won’t have their starting quarterback, the Broncos should head to Paul Brown Stadium full of confidence. Following back-to-back wins over the Los Angeles Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers, the Bengals represent the first in a stretch of easier opponents, at least on paper.

The Bengals sit at 5-6, the same record as the Broncos. That makes this an important game for both teams as it could end up being an elimination game for the team that loses.

The Broncos actually lead the series against the Bengals 8-7 in games played in Cincinnati and lead the overall series 21-10. The Bengals, who beat the Broncos last November, haven’t won two games in a row against the Broncos since 1975 and 1976.

Kickoff between these two teams is scheduled for 11:00 am MT and the game will be televised on CBS.
