NFL Streak Watch
Streak Watch: Cincinnati Bengals Have Won 3 Straight (NFL)
Published
Somebody is always rolling and somebody is always spiraling, that is what makes a league a league. Here is the current NFL streak board, longest runs first.
As of this morning, seven different teams are riding runs of three or more in one direction or the other, a busy board by any standard.
The win-column crowd
Cincinnati Bengals just keep stacking, three wins in a row, the best active streak going. At some point a run stops being a coincidence and starts being a statement, and they are somewhere past that point.
Behind them, Buffalo Bills have quietly won 3 in a row.
And Los Angeles Rams make it a crowd with 3 consecutive wins.
The skids
The skid to watch belongs to Houston Texans, losers of three in a row. Runs like this always end eventually; the only question is how much damage gets done before they do.
It is not much prettier for Miami Dolphins, losers of 3 straight.
Philadelphia Eagles round out the skid list at 3 in a row.
The board
The full board, longest runs first:
| Team | Active streak |
|---|---|
| Cincinnati Bengals | won 3 straight |
| Houston Texans | lost 3 straight |
| Miami Dolphins | lost 3 straight |
| Buffalo Bills | won 3 straight |
| Los Angeles Rams | won 3 straight |
One more thing
A 3-game run is long enough that it stops being a footnote and starts being the lead, expect it to come up in every broadcast until it ends.
A streak is history with good posture: impressive to look at, honest about the past, silent about tonight. Markets know this, which is why streaking teams get funny prices.
