(The last Bengals win at Mile High coming in 1975). Since HC Marvin Lewis has taken over the Bengals and Broncos have only played 4 times, with the Bengals sporting a 1-3 record.

It’s a simple game plan this week for the Bengals, run the ball. Command the game in the trenches on both ends and you will win the game. Last week the Broncos gave up 190 Rushing yards (31st in NFL) and rushed for only 38 (32nd), and remember this is against the Oakland Raiders. Hue Jackson figured out how to beat them, now the Bengals need to continue with the rushing attack if they want to win today.
