The Cincinnati Bengals have made it clear that they are not the underdogs ahead of Sunday’s AFC Division clash against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium.
That kind of confidence remained strong in the Bengals’ locker room, even as the two groups were scheduled to meet at Paycor Stadium in Week 17. But concerns about the health of Bills guard Damar Hamlin caused the game to be canceled, resulting in the NFL. Demise. propose the situation that would put the AFC championship in an unbiased place in Atlanta, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
And running back Joe Mixon, who has established the Bengals as the “big dog,” is back making sure his voice is heard after news emerged that the ticket price for the potential AFC naming game at an independent venue in Atlanta had already surpassed $50,000 while the game is yet to be decided.
“To be honest, it’s disrespectful, but we’re not worried,” Mixon said. “They gave us a game to play on Sunday, didn’t they? So they can’t exclude us. We’re going through there on Sunday and we’re going through to do what we want to do to come back with that W. And then we’ll go through to see what they’re talking about. “
The AFC call-up independently might not be an issue if the Kansas City Chiefs lose to the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday.
But no matter who has to play the winner Buffalo-Cincinnati, Mixon and the Bengals don’t seem to be wasting the huge chip on their shoulders that has only grown after the recent price news.
The Bills and Bengals will kick off Sunday at Highmark Stadium at p. m. CT.
