26. Cincinnati Bengals 3-4-1 (25) (Play Monday Night)

What’s the saddest part about the disappointing 3-4-1 record of the Cincinnati Bengals heading into Monday night’s showdown against the New York Giants? Despite their horrendous record, the Bengals are still in the hunt for the AFC North title thanks to some help from the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens over the last couple of weeks.

Two weeks after settling for a tie against the Washington Redskins in London, the Bengals look to get back on the winning track to keep up with their division rivals in the AFC North standings. On paper, Cincinnati certainly has the talent on offense to make this a competitive football game, but they should be concerned over how well New York’s defense has been playing over their last couple of games.

Once again, the key factor for the Bengals in this one will come down to A.J. Green in the passing game. As long as Andy Dalton manages to take advantage of his favorite weapon in the passing game, Cincinnati may actually come up with the win on the road to get back to .500 on the season.

If the Bengals fail to win, let’s just say the hot heat is only going to continue heating up for Marvin Lewis.
