The Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals meet for Monday Night Football at Paycor Stadium. Both teams look to solidify their playoff positions with a victory before the postseason begins in two weeks. Here’s what fans can look forward to in tonight’s matchup.
Bills Look To Clinch Home-Field Advantage
Since two straight losses to the Jets and Vikings, the Bills have won six consecutive games, including three in a row on the road. Buffalo is 12-3 and has already clinched the AFC East division title.
A win tonight would tie them with the Kansas City Chiefs for the best record in the AFC, and they would claim home-field advantage and a first-round bye in the playoffs on the strength of their 24-20 win over the Chiefs in Week 6.

Gabe Davis is the second-leading receiver for the Bills with 45 receptions for 797 yards and seven touchdowns.
Bengals Seek Sixth Straight Home Win
After a shaky start, Cincinnati is currently the hottest team in the NFL. Since starting the season 4-4, they’ve won seven straight and can clinch the AFC North title with a win tonight.
The Bengals have an offense that can match up with the Bills and also will be the biggest challenge Buffalo has faced on defense in several weeks. Cincinnati is 15th in the league in total defense and is ranked 21st against the pass with 225.9 yards per game.
