The NFL announced Saturday, Sept. 13, that the Bengals’ scheduled game at the Houston Texans, originally set for Sunday, Nov. 9, has been changed to Sunday, Oct. 26 at 4:05 p.m.
The Bengals originally had a bye for the weekend of Oct. 26, but Cincinnati’s bye will now be the weekend of Nov. 9.
The changes were made as part of a three-team rescheduling shufffled caused by damage in Houston from Hurricane Ike, including significant damage to Houston’s Reliant Stadium.
Because conditions in Houston will prevent this weekend’s Baltimore at Houston game from being played, the Baltimore-Houston game has been rescheduled for Nov. 9.
The Ravens and Texans will now have their byes this weekend.
Baltimore’s bye had orginally been scheduled the weekend of Nov. 9, and Houston’s bye had originally been scheduled the weekend of Oct. 26.

Here’s something that you won’t hear from Chick about tomorrow’s game. last week Cincy’s defense gave the Baltimore QB all day to throw the ball and the linebackers consistently played too far off the line of scrimmage. Baltimore running backs were 2+ yards past the line of scrimmage before Bengals defenders met them. Another note, when is the last time that Palmer had a great game and when is the last time that the O-line actually knocked a defense on their ear?
