For the first time since these two teams met in the playoffs last season, the Tennessee Titans and Cincinnati Bengals will do battle in Week 12.
Titans fans don’t need to be reminded about what happened last year, and even if the Titans play a perfect game on Sunday, there’s no amount of butt-whooping Tennessee can dish out that would erase it, so forget revenge.
What’s important is the current season and where the Titans are heading in 2022.
Tennessee currently sits with a nearly insurmountable lead in the AFC South, with the Titans holding a magic number of four. Also, the Titans are once again competing for a top seed in the conference, where they sit at No. 3.
Meanwhile, the reigning AFC champions are clinging to the final playoff spot after a rough start to the season. The Bengals have been better of late, though, and look primed to make a run in the second half of 2022.
Now that we’ve set the table, it’s time to serve up some burning questions.
