The Bengals are in unfamiliar territory. Sitting at 1-2 for the first time since 2011, Cincinnati aims to even their mark on Thursday in their first of four primetime games in 2016.
The Bengals will have to overcome a team that has had their number in the past. Miami is the lone AFC opponent quarterback Andy Dalton has yet to beat, going 0-2. In their previous matchup –also on TNF –, Dalton threw three interceptions and was sacked in the end zone for a game-winning safety in a 22-20 decision on Halloween 2013.
Miami also comes in 1-2 after defeating the Cleveland Browns in overtime last week.
