Week 7, Oct. 21, the 4-1 Bengals and 5-0 Chiefs are being flexed to Sunday night, per source. Rams-49ers, which was scheduled for that night, will be moved to 4:25 pm. So it’ll be two straight Sunday night games for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. Bengals lone SNF appearance.
This is awesome. They will be traveling back from Mexico City the previous week after playing a tough Rams defense. I could still see them winning that game, but I would sure love to be going in there 5-1 vs. their 6-0.

Right, the next two weeks will tell us a lot about whether we're contenders or pretenders.

Spot on TomKat. We will never get over the hump if we don't learn to win in Primetime.
I find this to be great news and just another challenge this team needs to take on in order to make a deep Playoff run and hopefully win the Superbowl. This team is different and has lots of fight in them and our Defense just showed up.
Price should be back soon and for the Chiefs game. I think we can beat these guys as long as we cover and tackle well and get after Mahomes. We can certainly score on that Defense.

Don't know what you are talking about.
We are 1-0 in our last one prime time games. Based on that history we should win.
Damn but we want them undefeated against us i think it’d be better then if New England beats them this week and they are coming home mad after first loss.
Bengals in Primetime
21-50
9-24 under marvin
7-39 on the road
1-16 on the road under Marvin yikes
3-16 on Sunday night
1-8 on Sunday night under Marvin
1-13 road Sunday night
0-7 road Sunday night under Marvin
Meh, I'm fine with it. When they start screwing around with the homes games, then I'll be upset. But, they can do what they want with the road games. Hell, make all of them Sundays at 8:20. Knock yourself out, NFL.
But, if it's an advantage for anyone, it's a small one for KC. Guess we'll see if that matters.

* FULL GAME*
I believe we also beat them more recently... can't remember them.
That was when Chad guaranteed a win!!!!!!!!
That's one of the things that make him one of the Bengals greats and made him so awesome before he became a d bag! He believed in the team and loved being here before Drew Rosendouche go into his head!
I love this but hopefully Marvin lets the coordinators do what they do and doesn't try to outsmart anyone, even though he has done ok this season.
We don't need to go run-heavy or pass-heavy, but rather we need balance on the road in a hostile environment, which is something Marvin struggles with. We'll get our big plays by just wearing the defense down.
We need to get after Mahomes, double Kelce so he can't destroy us, and just play off of Hill.......... give up plays underneath all day.

Sarcasm with the mask?
You are the stats guy Fred. How many times has this team gone .500 in ANY 'big stage' games, including playoffs and England, when they've had two or more games in a season?

2013 Bengals went 4-0 against playoff teams in the regular season beating Green Bay, New England, Indianapolis, and San Diego.

Again, that's not what I asked. In franchise history, how many times have they gone .500 in big stage games, when they've played 2 or more in a season?
