MADRID – The Atlanta Falcons head across the pond on Sunday for an early-morning game against the Cincinnati Bengals in a matchup that could deliver fireworks. 

Quarterback Joe Burrow leads an explosive offense that ranks second in the NFL in scoring (29.2 points per game) and has scored 30 or more points in all three of its consecutive wins. The Falcons have shown they can score, but this high-flying passing attack will test that. 

The Falcons are looking to put a rain-soaked 16-0 loss to the Buccaneers behind them, and the offense will need to wake up to do it. Michael Penix Jr. struggled, throwing four interceptions, and the entire offense failed to find any meaningful success. Against the Bengals, the Falcons will be counting on him to rediscover the form he had against the 49ers. 

Otherwise, it could be another dreary day for the Falcons. 

This one has the makings of an exciting game, and here’s everything you need to know to watch the Falcons’ Week 9 matchup with the Bengals.
