Eagles Vs. Bengals: Battle Of Struggling Teams

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - A pair of struggling teams will meet on Sunday in Cincinnati when the Eagles visit the Bengals.

The Eagles are 5-6 and they have lost six of their last eight, including their last two. This past Monday the Eagles lost to Green bay at home, 27-13, in a game that probably wasn't even as close as the final score would indicate.

The Bengals are 3-7-1 and they are winless in their last four. Cincinnati will be without two of its top weapons on offense in WR AJ Green and RB Gio Bernard because of injury.

The Eagles won't have RB Ryan Mathews (knee) or T Halapoulivaati Vaitai (knee) on Sunday. WR Jordan Matthews (ankle) is officially listed as questionable.

Philadelphia and Cincinnati last played on December 13th, 2012. The Bengals won easily that night at the Linc, 34-13

KYW's Matt Leon spoke with Brandon Lee Gowton of Philadelphia Magazine's "Birds 24/7" and BGN Radio about Sunday's game.
