Bengals Week 2

[tanner40]

Ravens coming off a huge win for them on Monday night. Now they travel to Cincy on a short week of rest to a team that looked very lackluster in New England. It is a division game (Cincy swept the division last year) and this Bengals team needs this game desperately to avoid an 0-2 start. The Ravens have been getting hammered with action yet the line remains at -1 or -2 across the board. As much as it pains me to say this (being a diehard Ravens fan) the Bengals will win this game.

Thoughts/opinions?

I agree, Cincy wins this one.

No lean on the total for me.

Ravens all day. Bengals won't go .500 this year... and i'm not saying that because of week 1.

What are you basing that on then?

Yes, I agree Bengals win here 24-23.

Their offense isn't as good as people think and they have a pretty tough schedule.

the raven s are an improving side and it is dangerous to oppose them imo, i dont get what you mean about having a short rest week the season is only a week old and fatigue/tiredness should not be an issue, sure the team showed some weaknesses but not half as much as the bengals did.
i see this as a ravens win but bol to you

yea i would like to hear your thinking behind cincy falling off when all i see is improvements across the board......

Across the board? Tell me where? Owens is an improvement and I like Gresham at tight end, but Benson will take a step back from what he did last year and the defense wasn't improved at all.
