Baltimore Ravens vs Cincinnati Bengals Prediction
The Cincinnati Bengals have had issues stringing together success, their defense isn’t as trustworthy, and they’re banged up on both sides of the ball. The Baltimore Ravens are rolling outside of their weird loss to the Browns, and they’re 5-1-1 ATS in their last 7 games. At home with the short week, it’s hard to bet against this Raven’s side right now. We’re getting the line just under a full touchdown. Give me the Ravens.
