Pace?

But the Bengals will be kicking off another game about 100 hours after the Sunday game.  And opening day is usually pretty hot weather.  So should the Bengals play a slow pace and run the clock to shorten the game in order to save their legs for Thursday night?

Nightmare scenario is an overtime game Sunday.

The only game that matters Sunday, is the game that's on Sunday. You play that however you need to, to get the win. 

Then you worry about Thursday, Monday morning.
