A total оf 79 points were scored when the Bengals and Ravens met іn Cincinnati іn Week 5. Baltimore won that game 41-38 іn overtime thanks іn large part tо the tandem оf Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. Jackson threw for 348 yards and Henry averaged 6.1 yards per carry for 92 yards оn the day.
Baltimore possesses the #1 scoring offense in the NFL and while Cincinnati tried valiantly, they learned a few weeks ago what is becoming obvious across the NFL: you can’t trade scores with the Ravens. You must get stops. Sounds obvious but has been difficult for most of their opponents.
Despite an offense scuffling without Tee Higgins, Cincy has won three of their last four. This past Sunday, however, the Raiders offered a get right opportunity to the Bengals and Joe Burrow and co. took full advantage winning 41-24. Cincinnati had been averaging just 18.3 points/game since losing to Baltimore until Vegas came calling. Sunday Burrow threw for 251 yards and 5 TDs and Chase Brown ran for a career-high 120 yards on 27 carries.
It is an AFC North matchup between two heated rivals.

The latest odds as of Monday courtesy of DraftKings:
- Moneyline: Cincinnati Bengals (-120), Baltimore Ravens (+100)

Before the season started, the Ravens were favored by a mere field goal, but halfway through the season the Ravens are as good as the books anticipated while the Bengals are not. Hence, the big swing in the spread. These teams are a combined 14-4 to the OVER which explains the Total climbing to 52.5.
NBC Sports Bet Best Bets
The Bengals just have to be desperate Thursday as their season is very much on the line against the Ravens. That said, Lamar Jackson chewed up their defense in their first meeting of the season and while Derrick Henry gained yards in sizable chunks, he only carried the ball 15 times. Add in the presumed absence once again of WR Tee Higgins and the data points to Baltimore covering the spread and winning by a touchdown. If that is too great a sweat for you, look at the receiving yardage for Bengals’ TE Mike Gesicki especially if Higgins is inactive.
