Everything you need for Thursday Night Football.
The Cincinnati Bengals get a chance at revenge for their home overtime loss to the Baltimore Ravens from Week 5 on Thursday Night Football this week. It also could be a huge win as far as actually getting back into the Wild Card race.
The Bengals offense had a huge game last time these two teams met. Part of that was Tee Higgins’ nine catches for 83 yards and two touchdowns. He is doubtful this week. However, Joe Burrow is coming off a five-touchdown game where he hit eight different receivers.
The defense also opted last time to take away running back Derrick Henry, which worked until his 50 yard run after Evan McPherson’s missed field goal. That led to Lamar Jackson going off in the air, and he was also able to easily pick up first downs with his legs. We will have to see if the opt for that same approach.
FanDuel Sportsbook currently has the Bengals as 6.5-point underdogs with a point total set at 53.5.
