Game Outlook

Week 10 starts with an absolute bang as Cincy travels to Baltimore for part two of this AFC North Divisional matchup. No NFL game in Week 10 has a higher total than Bengals-Ravens, with the total currently sitting at a whopping 53 points and Baltimore being favored by six at home. In Week 5, when these clubs faced off, this game exceeded the total and the Ravens won 41-38 in OT. Maybe we can’t expect it That another level of offensive production on Thursday, but there is plenty of data to suggest we should see points in this. This year, the Baltimore games are 8-1 to the over, while the Cincy games are 6-3 in terms of gaining the over to the Vegas total. With two defenses that both rank in the bottom ten in scoring and two offenses that can light up the scoreboard, it’s not hard to imagine another high-scoring game on TNF.
