BET BENGALS (+125).
The Bengals have scored 32 or more points in back-to-back weeks and handled the Ravens well just 2 weeks ago in Baltimore. Burrow fell apart in the final quarter against Buffalo, but will surely look for a bounce-back game in front of home fans. With frigid temperatures expected, the offense may be more limited, but Burrow has been historically solid in December.
PASS.
The moneyline has better value on the Bengals.
BET UNDER 51.5 (-110).
The Ravens have scored 23 or fewer points in each of their last 4 games and have hit the Under in 2 of their last 3 and 4 of their last 6. Jackson has struggled recently, and with the weather possibly being a factor, scoring will be affected.
The Bengals have scored 20 or fewer points in 2 of their last 4 games and have hit the Under in 3 of their last 4 games. Despite the defense being a major liability, the Over is a tad too high to back it.
