Prediction
The Bengals are on the verge of missing out on the playoffs and I think the Broncos can knock them out here. Denver has been terrific against sub-.500 teams, going 8-0 straight up, as opposed to 1-6 against winning teams. Denver’s defense is more than capable of slowing down Burrow and company, while Bo Nix should be able to score some points against a pretty bad Cincy defense. Also, the Broncos injury report is incredibly short, especially for this time of season. Give me the points.
Pick: Broncos +3
