Spreads are usually pretty accurate but they're also made to generate bets on both sides.

Lazor being offensive coordinator with Burfict back and finally leaning on Mixon more, is Bengals-3 easy money?

no... not a bad bet but not easy money. Betting on under if its in the 40s is easy money.  I think its currently at 39.

My least favorite of all bets, the under. I mostly hate it in NBA where fouls will drag it out...I think it's just as difficult, if not impossible to gauge like the NFL. You can lose that bet in a half.

Bengals at -3 is baiting. Although we've played 4 games, what we showed against the Browns should not make the odds this close. Realistically, the spread should be Bills -6. I'm just not convinced we have progressed to that extent since the first 2 losses. I hope I am dead wrong, I mean these spreads are compiled by people who make a living doing this. However, my gut tells me otherwise.

Mo has a handicapper on every week (i forget the guys name now) and the odds were heavy in favor of the Bengals this week. Tried finding the podcast last night (when i was able to remember his name) and they cut it off right before the last (his) segment, so i can't post a link. 

When i say heavy, i mean they were overwhelmingly in their favor based on the last 8-12 games for each team under the circumstances.

The Bills have only allowed 1 pass TD on defense all year so this will be a test for Lazor.

Everyone is giving too much credit to the Bengals after beating the 1-19 over the past 20 games Browns.

I hate betting o/u as well but depending on weather and teams some are easy bets.   Rain with 2 stingy D's is a no brainer.  That being said the line was 39 which is always a little hairy.
