Bengals hoping to fulfill another CJ guarantee
Chad Johnson talks with Joe Mixon before a Falcons-Bengals game in 2018.For the first time in the 21st Century, the Cincinnati Bengals have advanced to the American Football Conference Championship.
Perhaps it is only fitting, then, that their opponents would be the Kansas City Chiefs.
After all, it was the Chiefs who were the expansion Bengals’ opponent in their first game of any kind on August 3, 1968 at Nippert Stadium on the University of Cincinnati campus. Kansas City won that one, 38-14.
The stakes are a little higher this time.
The winner punches their ticket to Super Bowl LVI at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on February 13, 2022.
