What channel is Packers vs. Bengals on today? Schedule, time, live stream to watch ‘Sunday Night Football’ in Week 6
Week 6 features a key afternoon showdown rather than a primetime game — the Green Bay Packers are set to host the Cincinnati Bengals in a Sunday afternoon matchup. This game may not carry the Sunday Night Football billing, but with both teams seeking traction, it’s no less significant.
Green Bay enters off a bye and looks refreshed. The offense, led by Jordan Love, has shown flashes of consistency, while the defense has tightened up in recent outings. Home-field advantage at historic Lambeau Field could be a major factor in this one.
Cincinnati arrives with uncertainty at quarterback after acquiring Joe Flacco, hoping he can steady an offense that’s sputtered in recent weeks. Despite roster shakeups, the Bengals still have dangerous weapons like Ja’Marr Chase (listed as questionable) who can change the game in a moment.
Green Bay’s defense must clamp down on passing lanes and disrupt Flacco’s timing, while the Packers’ offense will test Cincinnati’s secondary and pressure up front. Expect a physical, strategic battle as both head coaches look to gain momentum in the middle of the season.
