Bengals vs Ravens Prediction
The current betting odds have the Ravens listed as a 6 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Ravens have looked good in their games this season with their 6-3 record overall which has them near the top of the AFC North. They are coming off a big win at home over the Broncos in their last one and their offense has been rolling all season. Meanwhile, the Bengals haven't looked great in their games this season with their 4-5 record overall which has them in 3rd place of the AFC North. The Bengals have looked great on offense all season with one of the best offenses in the NFL, putting up a ton of points in their games, but their defense has looked terrible being one of the worst defenses in the NFL. They are coming off a big win over the Raiders last week, but they still gave up 24 points in that game to one of the worst offenses in the NFL. The Bengals almost beat the Ravens earlier this season in a game that went to OT, but the Bengals still lost that game by 3 points after putting up 38 points and taking a late lead too. Their defense just couldn't stop this Ravens offense and they aren't going to do any better being on the road in this one. The Ravens have been putting up a ton of points in their games all year and they have been doing it on a consistent basis too. The Bengals defense won't stop them here and the Ravens defense also looked a lot better against the Broncos last week. The best way to place a bet here is on the Ravens to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes
“Four sacks, seven quarterback hits — that’s tough to match. There were those moments when we needed that big stop on defense. A lot of guys came up big for us, but Trey came up the biggest.” - Zac Taylor after his team’s win against the Raiders in their last game.
“We have been really good at running the ball for a long time, but he is different. Derrick Henry's different. He is adding a dimension that we have not had before. I don't know. You go back to Jamal Lewis maybe.” - John Harbaugh after his team’s win against the Broncos in their last game.
