Recently it was announced that Channel 5 (WLWT) will simulcast Cincinnati's Monday Night Football game between the Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers on September 16, originally airing on ESPN. Save for the background noise of possible blackouts, that leaves all but one game being shown on local television.
That obstacle has been overcome.
According to the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Bengals Thursday night game on the NFL Network will also be shown on Channel 5 (WLWT). Cincinnati will play in Miami on Thursday, October 31.
The Bengals will play 11 games on CBS, two on Fox, one on the NFL Network, ESPN and NBC.
