With a temperature of 7 degrees and a wind chill of -9 at kickoff, the Cincinnati Bengals said the NFL Week 15 loss to the Baltimore Ravens was the coldest in Paycor Stadium history.

Dec. 14, 2025, 2:09 p.m. ET The Cincinnati Bengals (4-9) hosts the Baltimore Ravens (6-7)at Paycor Stadium on Dec. 14, 2025.

An announced crowd of 64,097 braved a kickoff temperature of 10°F and snowy conditions on roadways as the Bengals dropped to 4-10 and were officially eliminated from playoff contention.

NFL seasons are a marathon and not a sprint, and the Ravens (7-7) were able to regroup and put pressure on the Steelers (7-6) after a 24-0 shutout of the Bengals at Paycor Stadium that eliminated Cincinnati from playoff contention.

The Pittsburgh Steelers head into their Monday Night Football showdown with the Miami Dolphins with a full understanding of what is at stake.

The Ravens need a win on Sunday to keep pace in the AFC North, and keep their hopes of a playoff spot alive.

The Ravens remain alive in the race for the AFC North, but the Bengals do not. Lamar Jackson threw a pair of touchdown passes in the first half and safety Alohi Gilman returned a Joe Burrow interception for a score in the fourth quarter of a 24-0 Ravens victory.

The Cincinnati Bengals entered the Week 15 game against the Baltimore Ravens flat in the cold and never warmed up on the way to a humiliating 24-0 loss.

The Ravens defense handed Joe Burrow his first shutout in the NFL and his first in any game since a 2018 loss to Alabama.
