Bengals Are Searching for Answers in the Run Game

Both teams face offensive difficulties with the Bengals ranking last in rushing yards and the Broncos struggling on early downs, impacting their early-season performances.

  • On MONDAY, Cincinnati travels to Denver for Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. EDT on ABC, with the Broncos favored by 7 1/2 points in a strong test for the AFC North leaders.
  • After their 48-10 loss last week, the Bengals face renewed pressure to fix the run game as Chase Brown has just 93 yards on 45 carries, and the offense ranks last in efficiency.

  • With Joe Burrow out until mid-December, the Bengals must rely on Jake Browning, who Zac Taylor said Thursday still has his utmost confidence despite five turnovers.
  • The series stands with Denver leading 22-12, last meeting a 30-24 Bengals overtime win on Dec. 28, 2024, in Cincinnati, with Cincinnati's 5-20 Monday Night Football road record adding context.
