Who's Playing

San Francisco @ Cincinnati

Current Records: San Francisco 6-6; Cincinnati 7-5

What to Know

The Cincinnati Bengals will play host again and welcome the San Francisco 49ers to Paul Brown Stadium, where kick-off is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

Cincinnati ended up a good deal behind the Los Angeles Chargers when they played last week, losing 41-22. Cincinnati's loss came about despite a quality game from WR Tee Higgins, who caught nine passes for one TD and 138 yards.

San Francisco came within a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks last week, but they wound up with a 30-23 loss. The losing side was boosted by TE George Kittle, who caught nine passes for two TDs and 181 yards. Kittle had some trouble finding his footing against the Minnesota Vikings two weeks ago, so this was a step in the right direction.

The 49ers' defense was a presence as well, as it got past Seattle's offensive line to sack QB Russell Wilson four times for a total loss of 50 yards. It was a group effort with five guys contributing.

Cincinnati is expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the New York Jets Oct. 31 easily too and instead slipped up with a 34-31. In other words, don't count San Francisco out just yet.
