Bengals -11?
#21
Yeah if we have a down game I could see it being close but if the defense plays they're game and the offense gets into a groove we should win by a decent amount. I heard on the radio that vegas said someone made a $500k and some change bet that Cincy would cover but I think that was at 9.5. I wonder who made that bet Nick Lachey? Bill Gates? Charles Barkley? Also heard the superbowl odds for the Bengals were down to 35-1 might've been a good year to put a few hundred bucks down for them to win it all.

No.  Not the message I was trying to send.  All it takes is a little bit of one team being on or the other off to keep the game tight.  You can have outcomes like Bengals/Detroit that play out as they should, but it doesn't take much in the NFL to keep things close.

The general message is to not bet the game at all due to the unpredictability.  Go for prop. bets, over/under etc.

Heard on some sports radio show this week that teams favored by 10 points or more have covered the spread 57.5% of the games played in the last 5 years.

Let me throw a few bets down on those. I’ll even it up.

Why we were double digit favorites at that time over the Texans is beyond me. They had our number for many years. No matter what scrub they were playing at QB.

Yeah, 8-0, but still. I can see being favorites at home when you're 8-0, but double digit suggests a blow out, and with our history against them idk.
