After a dominant win over the Ravens on Thanksgiving Night, the Cincinnati Bengals travel to Buffalo to face the Bills, as they continue their playoff push.
Cincinnati is 4-8, which is an oddly reminiscent status to last year, and they essentially need to win out for a chance at the division. They’ll need to get some help and engage in one of their trademark December runs, but it’s one game at a time right now.
Standing in their way is arguably the toughest game on the Bengals’ schedule this Sunday. Buffalo has seen some ups and downs this season, but they’re 8-4 and eyeing at least an AFC Wild Card spot.
Burrow has had Buffalo’s number recently, including a couple of high-profile primetime and playoff wins. Will that success continue, or will Cincinnati see some familiar issues they experienced in the middle of the season?

Expert Predictions
CBS Sports: Bills 28, Bengals 24
NBC Sports: Bengals 30, Bills 27 (Mike Florio), Bengals 24, Bills 28 (Chris Simms)
Cincy Jungle: This could go one of two ways. First, the more predictable one is that the defense falls back down to Earth after a five-turnover performance and struggles against the great Josh Allen. In this scenario, Joe Burrow plays well enough, even if showing a little rust in the elements, but the Bills eke out a win, and Cincinnati covers.
The other is that Cincinnati continues its recent success both in the month of December and against the Bills. Burrow captures late-season magic to charge towards an unlikely playoff push, and Cincinnati wins by something like a touchdown.
We’ll go with the latter until December Burrow shows us otherwise: Bengals 27, Bills 20.
