D is going to have its best game of the year if Burfict is in shape.
28-17 Bengals.
Only thing that worries me is that the Bengals will lay an egg following that win in Atlanta. It's odd to ask, but can they rebound from a win like that, if that makes sense?
I still pick the Bengals because they are at home and the overall better team, but they are also coming off a big emotional win.
31-21

If you hit this one, I'm coming to you for lottery numbers.
In my beginning of season prediction with the Bengals at 8-8 or 7-9 I had the dolphins game down as a win for the Bengals. Going to stick with that and say they win 31 to 27.
I'm concerned about the loss of Eifert, Ross not being 100% due to his "tweaked" groin, our very ineffective defensive backfield and Miami's good defense. And there's the whole post euphoric win let down.
Don't know how to call it.
I'll say Bengals 26 Dolphins 24
I think the Pre-Steelers week let down is a big concern.
Fortunately Miami's not so hot O-Line is hurting (note, why Drake can't run).
Bengals 24-17
Bengals have a terrible record against the Fins so it's anyone's game, but I'm hoping for the win and an emergency visit to a local Cincinnati hospital for Tannahill..and other Fins..
This one strikes me as being a lower-scoring game than we've seen this team play so far this season. Phat Randy is the difference-maker at the gun. 16-13 good guys.
31-17 Bengals-Burfict makes this a different defense,not Austin,so far I’m not impressed with him at all.
We win on momentum. Burfinct puts a stop down the middle. Bengals 24 - Fins 10
The offense has carried the defense. This week defense creates sacks and turnovers and Bengals win 24-13.
A bazillion to nothing! We win.. Yey..

??? What the hell they do to you?
WE MUST DEFEND THIS HOUSE
WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE
If this game was at Miami, it would be another hard road game. For all the Bengals injuries, the game is in Cincinnati.
I'm hoping THE JUNGLE helps the defense out. Maybe they could be LOUDER on 3rd downs, that might help.
I don't think Dolphins fans will fill the stands. It should be mostly BENGALS FANS.
So I'll say Bengals WIN IN THE JUNGLE, go to 4-1 on season, remain in FIRST PLACE.
