Bengals @ Falcons Predictions

[*SHRacerX*]

Last time they played, if I remember, Atlanta came in high-flying and was grounded. We had Burfict and a different DC then, though.

I believe the defense matches up better because Atlanta isn't a pound it style offense, at least not with Freeman out. They will give up a big play or two (Dre), and their TEs will eat well (LBs), but I can see the Bengals holding them to 24 points.

The offense is due for a big game. It was on quite a roll against Carolina and then suspect penalties and dumb play calls put them off schedule and led to turnovers. Dalton needs to use the TEs more to just move the chains, and grind out drives. We also need to see more of Mark Walton in the rushing attack.

I am going to say that the Bengals offense gets going again and pulls out a close one.

Falcons 24
