Live updates, analysis: Chargers lead Bengals 6-0 in first quarter

The Cincinnati Bengals host the Los Angeles Chargers at 1 p.m. at Paul Brown Stadium with a chance to get another head-to-head win over a potential playoff challenger. The Bengals are 3.5-point favorites, according to Tipico Sportsbook, and the over/under point total for the game is 49.5.

Three weeks ago, the Bengals went into their bye losers of two in a row, but have rebounded with consecutive wins over the Las Vegas Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers and find themselves the fifth seed in the AFC Playoff picture.

The Bengals (7-4) will be without starting right tackle Riley Reiff and center Trey Hopkins against the Chargers (6-5).
