As we continue our look at the Cincinnati Bengals’ 2022 schedule, up next is the first major test of the year.
While the Dallas Cowboys won’t be the toughest team on Cincinnati’s schedule, winning at Dallas is something we’ve not seen for the orange and black since the 1988 season. The only players currently on the Bengals’ roster that were alive that year were 36-year-old punter Kevin Huber and 37-year-old holder Clark Harris.
So yeah, it’s been a minute since the Bengals beat the Cowboys in their own stadium. However, the Bengals are coming off a season in which they won a playoff game for the first time since 1991 and made their first Super Bowl since that 1988 season, so breaking longstanding trends is no issue for this bunch.
