It has been a magic carpet ride season for the Patriots with the team currently sitting at 9-2 and tied for the best record in the AFC. They are coming off a lopsided 27-14 victory over the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football last week.

The Bengals will also be missing All-Pro receiver Ja'Marr Chase and defensive end Trey Hendrickson. Cincinnati has lost their last three straight games, including a 34-12 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road last week. They will now try to turn the page by upsetting the visiting Patriots in their home building.
