CINCINNATI (AP) – Two big goals are still out there for the Cincinnati Bengals: Shine in prime time, win in the playoffs.
The AFC North leaders have a chance to put a dent in the first one on Monday night when they host Denver (11-3), which has already clinched the AFC West. The Bengals (9-4-1) have been at their worst at night.
Cincinnati is 18-41 all-time in prime time, including 10-20 on Monday night. The Bengals were beaten badly by New England and Cleveland in their two night games this season.
They’re generally healthy heading into this one, although receiver A.J. Green missed practice on Thursday with an illness. A lot of the focus will be on Andy Dalton, who is 2-6 in prime time.
