Cincinnati Bengals vs. Buffalo Bills Prediction
The Bengals come into this game blazing hot at the moment. Cinncanti has won seven games in a row. The last time that the Bengals lost? You would have to date all the way back to Halloween night when they were beaten 32-13 by the Cleveland Browns. This is a team that did not lose a game in November or December.
The Bengals have been led by star quarterback Joe Burrow who is playing at an MVP level at the moment. This should not surprise us, as last year Burrow led this Bengals team to an AFC Championship. The Bengals appear to be a legitimate threat to represent the AFC again this season. The Bengals will have an opportunity to win the division with a win tonight.
Buffalo, meanwhile, comes into play winners of the AFC East once again. Josh Allen has had an MVP-caliber season, and he will look to show off his skills yet again on Monday night. Allen has been a matchup nightmare for opposing defenses the last few years. The reality for the Bills is that they have been a bit disappointing the last couple of years. As good as this team is, they should have more success than they have. They have struggled come playoffs, and they are hopeful of getting over the hump this year. The Bengals come into play as a slight one-point dog tonight.
I am all over the Bills in this spot. I understand how hot the Bengals have been, but when we break this down, I can not pass up this good of a price on Buffalo. I think this line suggests that it is a Bills play, as despite winning seven games in a row, the Bengals are underdogs at home. I expect a Josh Allen masterclass to lead the way for us tonight. This will certainly be a competitive game throughout, but give me Buffalo here!
