Last Game

Cincinnati was beaten up in last week’s NFL matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Nobody expected the Bengals to win, but they didn’t have a good showing. The offense turned the ball over twice, and the Steelers’ front seven was able to sack Joe Burrow four times.

Defensively, the Bengals held up strong in the run game but were obliterated against the pass. Ben Roethlisberger picked apart the Bengals’ secondary, throwing for 333 yards and four touchdowns.

Stats Pack

The Bengals have won two games and are also losing in statistics that matter. They’re minus-three for their turnover ratio. These analytics show why the Bengals haven’t been able to win.

Trends

After this week’s crushing defeat, Burrow has made it clear that he’s not going to quit. This is positive news for Bengals fans to hear after seeing the results this year when they’re making their NFL picks.

Betting Record

Next Game: at Dallas Cowboys 

Last Game

Washington suffered a close loss on the road last week to the Lions. Washington lost the turnover margin by one and was unable to score on one of its trips to the red zone. This made the ultimate difference on Sunday.

The team outgained the Lions 464-372, but the Lions had the advantage on the ground. Washington played good enough to win, but it just couldn’t capitalize in the key moments of the contest.

Stats Pack

At one point, many thought Alex Smith would never play again after his gruesome leg injury. This past Sunday, he had his best game since that horrific day in 2018. He was 38-of-52 for 390 yards with no interceptions, giving the team hope at that position.

Trends

Washington is on a two-game losing streak. Sunday is their best chance to break it with the teams that remain on their schedule after the Bengals.

Point Spread

When looking at the NFL online betting odds, Cincinnati is better ATS than Washington. Prior to Sunday, its past two losses came by a combined seven points. The Bengals are also 5-2-1 as dogs ATS, while Washington is 0-1 as favorites ATS. Neither team is favored much, so this could be a skewed statistic for Washington.

Moneyline

This game is a toss-up. Neither team has been dominant. The way Smith played last week should create optimism in the Washington locker room. The Bengals were dominated Sunday, so Washington should have a little more confidence after almost beating the Lions.

Over/Under

These teams are a combined 10-7-1 for the over/under. Washington is better statistically on defense. One of the bigger NFL injuries to Joe Mixon will hurt the Bengals’ ability to score, but I believe they’ll have some success. The Bengals have one of the worst defenses in the league, so the stars could be aligned for Smith to have another big day.
