Thursday Night Football open thread: Dolphins and Bengals

It’s hard to believe it, but we’ve already reached the final week of the first quarter of the season. Week 4 is here and things kick off on Thursday night again.

This week’s “Thursday Night Football” game features two AFC opponents, meaning this game won’t have any bearing on the Detroit Lions in any way imaginable. However, there are several Lions connections you could make with this game. The Miami Dolphins sport a slew of former Lions including Ndamukong Suh, Isa Abdul-Quddus and Jason Jones. The Cincinnati Bengals don’t have any former Lions, but they do have a former Sparty in Darqueze Dennard and common Lions draft crush Rey Maualuga.

Here’s all the info you need for Thursday’s game:
