My most important factors to consider;
AJ Green is most likely out according to all the major media outlets, carted off the field after re-injuring his big toe which has been a problem since last year, this obviously goes in favor of fading the bungholes this week.
Bungholes coming off an embarrassing loss at NE, the everyone one dumping on the team again saying they are not real contenders and cannot win on the big stage, which I personally agree with. However, this will serve as motivation all week for this team and they are probably the best Sunday @1pm team in the league.
Also, Carolina sucks. No running game, just eeked out a home win to a very average Bears team after getting stomped by Pitt and Balt back to back. Burfict will most likely play this week, needs to be cleared by an independent neurologist this Saturday, but been a full practice participant all week. He is a game changers for the Bengals D.
Good luck on your plays, most likely a pass for me I do not bet against this team on Sunday afternoon at home.
