Default Cylinder 3 and 5 misfire

I have a 2002 Dakota 3.9L V6. I checked the codes and got back 2 misfires in cylinders 3 and 5. Anyone else ever had this problem? If so, how'd you fix it?

Usually when it's a bank like that, it is an O2 sensor problem (the upstream is generally what sets the misfire codes)

I guess now would be a good time to mention I also got a reading for an o2 sensor😂 The reading was for bank 2 sensor 2. I believe that's the downstream sensor, however.
