Bengals have NFL's worse two-game losing streak in 60 years originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here. The Cincinnati Bengals have scored 80 points in their last two games - they are 0-2 in that stretch.

The Bengals reached a historic low not seen in the league since the 1960s after their embarrassing 47-42 loss to the Bears in Week 9.

The Bengals were on the brink of making one of the most miraculous fourth-quarter comebacks in recent memory on Sunday against the Bears, but they let the game slip out of their grasp. Trailing by 14 with less than five minutes left, Joe Flacco steered a pair of sensational touchdown drives and gave Cincinnati a 42–41 lead.

“The Cincinnati Bengals mourn the passing of former tight end Bob Trumpy, who played for the team from its inaugural season in 1968 through ’77. He passed away peacefully at the age of 80, at his home surrounded by family,” the statement said.

The Cincinnati Bengals are having a tough season with Joe Burrow's injury and a struggling defense. After a win against the Steelers, hopes were high, but two recent losses have dashed optimism.

NFL coaches rarely get Sundays off, but Bengals coaches did because the team played on Thursday night. So Zac Taylor and James Casey worked their sons' game.
