They are at home so they get 3 points for that.
I think they win by 10+
Sorry all. I love my Bengals but I watched the Bills-Ravens game and we are not “currently” operating on their level (or the Bills).
No idea how the Fins beat them both and on that note; how we managed to get a W against the Fins bc we aren’t even playing 70% as well as we did last year. We look kinda lost TBH.
The Ravens will be playing INTENSELY with a giant chip on their shoulders about not only an uncharacteristic 5 straight losses at home, but:
-Revenge for last year’s 2 embarrassments
-A complete team this year (lots of injuries last year)
-Added incentive after coming off of 2 hard fought close ones they lost back-to-back to the Fins and Bills
Transitive property doesn't work in sports and especially the NFL. Each game has it's own pulse and creates a life of it's own. Bengals at home on a thursday night literally created enough energy to have 12-13 players out there against 11. Add in match ups and everything that can and does happen and games are real time and not what this/that team did against them.
