Bengals v Pats history
#1
Pats lead series 16-9. It was tied at 7-7 in 1992, but since then Pats have won 9 of 11. However Bengals are 2-2 at home since PBS opened.

Bengals and Pats have met twice when both were playoff teams. In '13 shut down Brady and the Pats in a 13-6 win at home. The very next year the Pats were "struggling" at 2-2 coming off a 41-14 blowout loss to the Chiefs. That loss led to the famous "Moving on to Cincinnati" press conference from Belichick and a 43-17 waxing of the undefeated Bengals.

Biggest win for the Bengals other than '13 was probably '86 when the 8-5 Bengals blew out the 9-3 Pats 31-7 in Foxborough. James Brooks had one of the greatest games of his career (163 yd rush, 101 yd receiving) and Stanley Wilson had 120 yards on just 16 carries. Both of them had td runs of 50+ yards in the 4th quarter to put the game away.

Individual records

Passing yards...……………….Carson Palmer (9-12-10)... 345
Passing td...……………………..Boomer Esiason (12-22-91)… 3
Passer rating...………………...David Klingler (9-18-94)… 123.6 (Ironically Klingler was sacked 7 times that day for another record versus Pats)
Rushing yards...………………..Harold Green (12-20-92)… 190
Rushing td...……………………..Paul Robinson (12-20-70), Jack Thompson (9-16-79), Steve Broussard (9-16-79)… 2
Receptions...……………………..T.J. Houshmandzadeh (12-12-04), Chad Johnson (9-12-10)… 12
Receiving yards...……………..Tim McGee (9-23-90)… 163
Receiving td...…………………..Eddie Brown (10-16-88), Rodney Holeman (12-23-90), Carl Picken (9-18-94)… 2

Make it 10 of 12 on Sunday. Only positive in this one is it's a guaranteed loss. Though the Pats haven't been hot recently nor have they put up tons of points this year, they certainly won't pull a Cleveland and forget that the Bengals run defence is dreadful. Brady might throw 2 passes all game!

Just hoping this one isn't a blowout. If our offence doesn't turn it over and we play the run ok, then Brady isn't throwing for 5-6 TD's. I imagine we struggle against their defence either way however.
