The Cincinnati Bengals opened the week as gigantic underdogs against the Baltimore Ravens.
No great shock there as the winless Bengals still won’t have A.J. Green and continue to struggle with the offensive line and who lines up where — not to mention the 0-5 record.
Over at NFL Pick Watch though, none of the experts polled as of this writing think the Bengals can win. Not one.
Nobody could argue against the idea the Bengals are a bad football team. But to play devil’s advocate here, Baltimore has looked beatable and took a loss at the hands of Cleveland. Two of the team’s wins came over bad Miami and Arizona squads, too.
But again, probably not a good idea to argue with the experts this week. The Bengals are under the trade-rumors microscope this week and for the duration of the month for good reason.
A week removed from struggling to contain a rookie like Kyler Murray, the improved Lamar Jackson figures to give a problematic Bengals defense fits on the road.
