Prediction
I’m going to lay the points in this one. The Bengals are a mess right now without Joe Burrow and Browning has been turning the ball over at an alarming rate. The Bengals rank 28th in passing and dead last in rushing. Their defense hasn’t been much better, ranking 25th overall and 27th in points allowed. Denver’s defense should have no problem stopping and creating turnovers, which will lead to short fields for Bo Nix to get his confidence back. I like Denver by 10+ points.
Pick: Broncos -7.5
