With Tee and Boyd both apparently going to play, and Vela out for them, I foresee a good day for the Bengals offense, even missing Hurst. Winfield a GT decision for them. I think the Bengals score 30, but 24 at worst.
On the other side, missing Trey & Hilton, and maybe Davis, on top of Chido, makes the secondary pretty thin & hurts the pass rush. Wirfs sounding like a game time decision could mitigate it some. But the Bucs have been far from explosive. Our D is not as good as SFs, but I think Hill, CTB, and Ossai/Sample will be more than adequate despite a bump or two vs Brady. I don't think the Bucs break 20. 23 tops.
Prediction: Bengals 30, Bucs 16.
