Denver comes into the weekend favored by a field goal. I think the Broncos have a major advantage in the trenches on the O and D-lines. The home field and the defense especially in the redzone with their tough secondary.
The Bengals have struggled of late, dropping four of their last six games to fall to 7-6 through 13 contests. Cincinnati’s defense has taken a major step back during that span, allowing 26 points or more in each of its losses. Meanwhile, anchored by a strong running game, Bridgewater has been doing just enough to keep the Broncos afloat. He is a game manager who doesn't turn the ball over.
Look for Denver to turn this into a physical, low-scoring contest and take the Broncos to cover the spread at home on Sunday evening.
