Point Spread: 14.50 | -105.00 Cincinnati (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 10* ASSASSIN on the Bengals.
The Bengals have Brandon Allen under center and he's been decent so far with three TD's and two INT's over three games. Allen has two big time receivers in Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd, and these two will be tasked to fill the void of RB Joe Mixon. Overall the Bengals average only 18.8 PPG, while allowing 26.0.
The Steelers are 11-2, but they come to town off two straight losses and dealing with some injury issues themselves, including to starting running back James Conner, which turns the Pittsburgh offense very one-dimensional.
The Bengals are looking for different motivational factors each week and they have plenty today, as they look to deal their hated rival another blow to its playoff positioning.
Outright win? I'm not calling for that. But I do think the stage is set for a much more competitive battle than what this spread would suggest.
Grab the points!
Good luck, NP
