Where to Watch Cincinnati Bengals at New York Giants - Sunday Night Football on NBC
Who has more to play for? It’s an NFL survival contest between the Bengals and Giants in Week 6.
Last weekend’s Sunday Night Football matchup on NBC was a classic NFL battle for the ages, featuring two of the league’s premiere brands in a thrilling 60-minute contest that saw the Dallas Cowboys ride past the Pittsburgh Steelers on the strength of an impressive last-minute touchdown toss from Cowboys QB Dak Prescott.
The emerging storylines continue as we round the corner into the NFL’s Week 6, with a conference crossover on Sunday Night Football that matches two teams who’ve seemed to punch well beneath their talent weight — at least so far — in this still-young NFL season.

What to expect from the Cincinnati Bengals vs. New York Giants game on Sunday Night Football
There’s a lot riding on this game for both teams, though it’s clear that the Bengals are desperate for a win after a 1-4 start to the season. To do so, they'd better be focused on finding ways to mount a defensive effort worthy of QB Joe Burrow’s high-powered passing attack alongside offensive weapons Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase.
The clock might just be ticking on the Bengals’ entire season, as they’re currently warming the last-place spot right beside the Cleveland Browns (also 1-4) in the AFC North division, even while nursing the recent wounds of a heartbreaking Week 5 loss to the current AFC North leading Baltimore Ravens (3-2).

On the Giants’ side, things are at least urgent if not exactly desperate just yet. At 2-3, the Giants are coming off a big win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5, enough to gain ground in their NFC East division. With a win on Sunday, perhaps they can move out of their current last-place standing, just behind the Philadelphia Eagles at 2-2 and the Dallas Cowboys at 3-2, even if everyone’s still catching the vapors from the division leading Washington Commanders (4-1).
Behind QB Daniel Jones, the Giants are still working without some of their biggest offensive threats — though that didn’t stop them against the Seahawks in Week 5. Wide receiver Malik Nabers is still on day-to-day watch after sitting out last week’s win under the NFL’s concussion protocol, while rookie RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. is still eyeing a potential starting spot against the Bengals as RB Devin Singletary, whose game-time status remains unknown, continues to recover from a groin injury.
