Cincinnati Bengals Avoid Blackout.
By Jesse Mapati
For the second time this season, the extra extension that the Cincinnati Bengals took advantage of from the NFL, helped avoid a home TV blackout.
So, the game Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium, where the team haven’t lost in their this season (6-0). Their opponent the Minnesota Vikings will be shown on local TV (FOX 19, Chan. 3). They are still seats remaining for the game, but luckily they were able to claim enough by the 4pm deadline Friday afternoon.
Yesterday, we reported that there were 3500 tickets remaining for the game that has huge playoff implications. A Cincinnati win, could clinch a playoff berth or the AFC North division title, and would keep their hope of a No. 2 seed for the playoffs.
For all that to happen, obviously the team need to win and fans should keep their eye on these two games this Sunday: Dolphins at Bills 1pm and Patriots at Ravens 4:25pm on CBS.
