Cincinnati at Jacksonville 8:15 ET
Bengals (+) over Jaguars- I believe that there has been a general over reaction to both of these team because of their recent play. So, trending to the negative are the Bengals and becoming the public’s choice the Jacksonville stock has never been higher. Cincinnati has dropped three straight while the Jaguars have won seven of eight and their only loss was to San Francisco. Jags QB Trevor Lawrence has better command of the offense now to go with his talents as he is learning how to win. Win...that is something the Bengals don’t understand for certain situations. What I say here is the truth and it is why I like them (Go figure). Here it is and this won’t be easy to swallow. The Bengals have lost nine straight Monday night road games (their last win came on Oct. 22, 1990 (that’s Oct. 22, 1990) and there is more, they have lost 15 straight prime-time road games and lastly they have lost 26 of 27 night road games. When you put it all together it seems that the Bengals don’t stand a chance and maybe they don’t but, when people have buried a team and assume they are done, that they have quit, that they are finished...that’s when amazing things start to happen. These guys are pro’s and after their inept offensive performance at Pittsburgh picking up only 10 first downs and gaining just 25 yards rushing i expect personal pride to rise up and for them to go toe-to-toe with the home club. Jake Browning gets his second start for the two-time defending division champs. Somehow, the money goes to CINCINNATI!
