Ravens VS. Bengals Predictions
Baltimore initially opened as 2.5-point favorites on their home turf. The lines have shifted in their favor, now standing at -3.5.
My pick on the spread is Cincinnati at +3.5. I’m expecting the Cincinnati rushing attack to exploit the weaknesses in Baltimore’s rush defense. Furthermore, this should be a tight divisional game on a shortened week, and that has me leaning toward the underdog getting more than a field goal on the spread.
