The opening line is Bengals by 6.5 which is doable but crazy at the same time. It will likely tighten up as the week goes on

Give me a couple C-Notes on the Stripes.

I think it will go to -4.5 by game time.

We should be a big favorites. 6.5 seems reasonable and I don't see t dropping any.

Our offense scored 86 more points.

Our defense allowed 63 fewer points.

We already beat them by 19 earlier this year.

We are playing at home.

We are coming off what was essentially a bye with rested starters

The big thing that makes me nervous about the Raiders this time around compared to the regular season is now the Bengals don't have Reiff to handle Crosby. They're going to have to rely on either Johnson or Prince.
Hopefully they'll leave Sample or Uzomah in to help block since the OT alone (at least Prince) won't be able to handle Crosby.

If the Bengals can do that, I like them to win this game.
