HISTORY: The Cincinnati Bengals and Green Bay Packers were once regular preseason opponents, meeting every year from 1970 through 1979. After that the meetings became sporadic, six times during the past 30 years. The Bengals have a preseason record of 11-4-1 against the Packers, currently on a five-game winning streak and having won seven of the previous eight meetings. The last time these two teams met it was at Lambeau Field in 2008, with Cincinnati jumping out to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter. Bengals quarterbacks completed 14 of 27 passes for only 118 yards. However Chris Perry and James Johnson combined for 82 yards rushing on 24 carries, helping lead the Bengals to a 20-17 win. Robert Geathers generated a quarterback sack and two hits on the quarterback while Keith Rivers led the defense with seven tackles.
