PASS.

There is no value on the Lions (-600) to win on Sunday.

BET LIONS -10.5 (-105).

The Bengals have scored just 13 points combined over their previous 2 games with Browning under center, with their offense looking diffident and disoriented. On the flip side, the Lions’ offense has looked like a well-oiled machine, scoring at least 34 points in each of their last 3 games and covering as at least 6.5-point favorites in both games they have entered as favorites this season. While the Bengals’ defense will see key players return from injury, it will not be enough to stop the Lions on Sunday.

BET UNDER 49.5 (-110).

The Lions should be expected to carry a lot of the load in terms of the Over hitting, but without Burrow, the Bengals’ offense will be unable to carry their share of the point scoring. Through 4 games this season, Brown has rushed for just 133 yards and 1 TD, showing a lack of running ability for the Bengals, which leads to a majorly lacking pass game.

Sunday will be one-sided in Cincinnati, but it will not be enough to hit the Over.
