Monday Night Football tonight is back — Ja’Marr Chase and the Cincinnati Bengals travel to Jacksonville to take on Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars in a clash that features two talented AFC teams.
However evident the talent is, these are two teams heading in two different directions as the Bengals are still trying to navigate the rest of 2023 without the help of starting QB Joe Burrow, while the Jaguars are looking to keep pace with the AFC elites.

The 8-3 Jaguars have everything they want still very much in front of them. While the Miami Dolphins look to be the team to beat in the AFC right now, the Jaguars have a chance Monday night to make sure that those around the league do not forget them, either.
After starting the season 1-2, the Jaguars have been one of the hottest teams in the NFL and have gone 7-1 in their last eight games. With a tough stretch of games on the horizon, including matchups against the Cleveland Browns and Baltimore Ravens, tonight presents an opportunity to keep pace with those around them.
As for the 5-6 Bengals, things have changed quickly for them over the last couple of weeks. Burrow is lost for the year, and they’re in the middle of a two-game skid, which casts doubt on their legitimacy as Jake Browning tries and helps the team punch a ticket to the playoffs.

Cincinnati is currently on the outside looking in and has a tough road ahead, even if Burrow was in the lineup. Following the Jaguars tonight, the Bengals have dates with the Indianapolis Colts and Minnesota Vikings before finishing the season against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Kansas City Chiefs, and finally the Browns.
Tonight’s matchup is important for both teams as both need wins looking to obtain the same goal but from vastly different vantage points.
