11 things to know for Titans-Bengals divisional-round matchup

The Tennessee Titans and Cincinnati Bengals will do battle on Saturday at Nissan Stadium in Nashville for a divisional-round matchup that will determine who takes one of the spots in the AFC Championship Game.

The Titans are coming off a first-round bye after finishing with 12 wins and securing the AFC South and top seed in the conference. It was by no means an easy road for Tennessee, though, as the team had to overcome a ton of injuries to get to where they are today.

The Bengals finished with a 10-7 mark and won the AFC North. It was the first double-digit win season and division crown for Cincinnati since the 2015 campaign, and the future is as bright as it has ever been for the franchise.

The Bengals were also able to exorcise their playoff demons in the Wild Card Round, defeating the Las Vegas Raiders 26-19 for their first postseason win since the 1990 playoffs.

In preparation for this matchup, let’s take a look at 11 things to know about these teams.
