Seattle Seahawks to Battle Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium

As the Seattle Seahawks prepare to take on the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium, fans are buzzing with anticipation. The Seahawks have been on a roll, boasting a 3-1 record that includes an impressive 24-3 victory over the New York Giants on October 3rd. That game showcased their defensive prowess, with an astounding 11 sacks and two interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown.

The offense wasn't slacking either; they managed to put up 281 total yards against the Giants' defense. The punting game was particularly strong, averaging over 50 yards per punt and pinning three inside the 20-yard line. This special teams performance could be crucial in setting up field position against the Bengals.


In contrast, when looking back at their September 24th home game against Carolina Panthers where they scored a season-high of 37 points, it's clear that Seattle can also rely on its offensive capabilities when needed. They accumulated an impressive total of 425 yards that day and were successful in half of their redzone attempts.


However, it's worth noting that while Seattle has shown dominance in certain areas like defense and punting strategy during previous games, there are still aspects they need to tighten up before facing Cincinnati. Penalties have been a consistent issue for them; they racked up eight penalties for a loss of over seventy yards in both mentioned games.


The upcoming match-up will not be easy by any means as Cincinnati is known for its resilience and competitive spirit at home. Fans should expect this game to be hard-fought from kickoff until the final whistle.


Looking ahead to October 15th at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati where kickoff is scheduled for 1:00 PM local time (5:00 PM GMT), fans can catch all the action live on CBS. It promises to be an exciting encounter as both teams vie for supremacy on the gridiron.
