Jaguars score 10 points which will actually push our average total per game up.

You guys score 13.

17-10 Bengals

Benson runs for 105 yards. Green and Gresham catch TD's. Defense gets an interception to set up a late field goal.

I hate this. It seems like whenever we're suppose to win, we lose. Jags still have a great running game and there is always the possibility of the Bengals beating themselves like we do sometimes.

I'm hoping Gresham and Green score just because it's fun to watch them, so I'll go 14-7 Bengals.

Bengals are underdogs in Vegas. Why is everyone saying they are supposed to win?


As for the game, I'm worried about MJD breaking a big run or two which could be the difference in what should be a low scoring game.

Should be interesting to watch the 2 young QBs also. If one of them can avoid any costly turnovers, it would be huge for his team.

Our top ranked defense and an offense that scores more than 9 points a game is why I'm saying we're supposed to win. It's nothing against the Jags, but they haven't looked like a good team yet this year.

Going into this game MJD isn't really a big concern for me going on what the Bengal's defense has done to shut the run game. Marcedes Lewis on the other hand is a huge concern. The Bengal's have such a hard time covering pass catching tight ends and he is one of the better ones in the league when it comes to that aspect. I also wouldn't be surprised to see the Jag's run a lot of screen plays for MJD to try and utilize him and his play making ability outside of the run game.

I really expect the Bengal's to win this game since in Jacksonville there really isn't a road atmosphere due to them not drawing anything of a crowd. Saying that the Bengal's will find a way to somehow lose this game..lol

I get that I guess. The Bengals do look like a slightly better team to me also. But the Bengals are 2 point underdogs.

If you look at the moneyline, Vegas thinks the Bengals have about a 40% chance to win.

Whatever the defensive yardage rankings say, the Bengals aren't the favorites and this would be a minor upset if they pull off the road victory.

Just my opinion, but I'd say the only games that would fit into the "supposed to win" category are games where a team is favored, and really only those that they are favored by 7 points plus....

If you know how Vegas really works when it comes to betting lines you'd see how the Bengal's are actually the favorite in this game. Vegas values home field to be worth at least 3 points for the home team. With that fact kept in mind with this game played on a neutral field or at Paul Brown the Bengal's would be favored. You have to also kinda pay attention to how the money is being played at the sports books. A lot of the odds makers see this game being bet down to a pickem line by game time. All of the smart money has been put on the Bengal's for awhile now. The line opened at a 4 in some places since the initial lines were set in pre-season when Garrard was still on the Jags.
