Positives: Bengals are finally home. Rookies get more experience. Bengals acknowledge offensive woes. Demarcus Ware out
Negatives (and this is really what it boils down to): Denver's defense comes through again and again against the best offenses in the NFL. There's no reason to think they can't come through against an offense that has looked one dimensional and dysfunctional. Let's not act like Denver doesn't have great detph at LBs; they're starter caliber.
This feels like the Green Bay game in terms of staying in the race. I really want the Bengals to win in the same manner that they beat Green Bay and Denver in the 2012-13 and 2014-15 seasons, but I just don't see it happening.
Broncos: 20
Bengals: 13
