Ive been picking my spots this season and have done decent for myself. I dont post much NFL because I dont consider myself good enough as a 50%/55% player so far this season. Im liking Bengals to win SU with all the bs with lewis and seeing them getting blown out by a ton two games in a row. I can see Detroit shitting the bed yet again with pub all over them and pub down playing Bengals cause theyve been ass this year for the most part. I see snow in cincy so far. Im not big on Stafford. Ill take anyone of your opinions on why or why not to take the Bengals. Thank you guys! Have a safe and happy holiday!

YES. Detroit sucks on the road. Lne should probably be 1-3. Bengals were brutal last two weeks. They may not be good but Detroit isn't either. They are better than their last two games

I have the Lions at -5 so I guess the Bungals have a fighter's chance to win SU.

I think the other Ohio team stands a better shot at getting the W. JMO

This Cincy team has nothing to play for. They don't even know who their next coach is going to be. Yes, some of these guys care, but the majority just want to stay healthy. Just really not a good situation to bet on them with all that has gone down or still going on with that franchise. With that said pressure is on Detroit. They could choke! I just don't see the edge in betting against them in this situation.

One would have thought Houston might have some pride last week at home against 1st place Jacksonville. Nope!

I read where the city of Cleveland is setting up a parade to celebrate the winless season for the Browns. Now there's motivation for you. And they are playing a team that has a poor record. Numbers and stats tell us that the Browns have been a bad team to play on. Could they cover and possibly win? Of course they could, but I'm not down with any of the teams that aren't in contention for anything at all.

I saw to many players standing around and watching others make tackles. I saw players faking injuries to come out of ball games that were meaningless. The mindset of NFL football players is obviously way different than it was 10 years ago, which was different from 20 years ago.

Who wants to make that extra hit and risk injury, not to many of these players now-a-days.

You might say they aren't STAND UP (anthem)kind of people in today's NFL (Not all, but a lot)

Like United stated above, Browns ML is a better choice than a Cinci ML.

Marvin Lewis coached Cinci for 17 years, that's too many years for a ciach not able to win a playoff game......he should have veen fired 5 years ago IMO.

Will his players play for him in Cinci's last home game? I doubt it, but I wouldn't take Lions -5 either. I think Lions win SU tho.

Yeah, that's why I like Lions ML......if Lions lose this game, they're playoff hopes are gone.

Brown's ML is a better choice then the Bengals?

I like the Lions a lot in this spot, they have played a much tougher SOS (# 10 vs # 29), have a superior QB (# 10 vs # 27) & offense, are motivated for the playoffs and will fight till the end.
Cincy out of the hunt with lame duck coach has completely collapsed last two, and have significant injuries... need to check later on it.
Agree dome teams in the cold are a risk but they play in the cold in the NFCN and have an extra day of rest... disagree with those that criticize Stafford, he has been in terrible situations for years, if he was on the right team he would be considered a super star HOF candidate. IMO.
Not big on them yet but will play them, matter of small-medium-large. Check injuries and weather/wind/cold.
GL!

Cincinnati 0-3 vs nfc north....very good reason to think they win outright. Browns outright also.

I bet Bengals +4.5. I wouldn’t take them on the road, regardless of the point spread. However, this is their final home game, so I think they will play with some pride.

Of course they have a shot but Dalton is one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. I wouldn't bet on him with my enemy's money. Ditto for the Browns. Eventually they will win a game and some guys will be bragging about "how they called it" while neglecting to mention the 20 units they already flushed down toilet betting on them already this season.

Thought about playing the lions because they Really Need the Win, unlike the Bengals who are a mess, the game means nothing and Lewis is done there.

But after the line moved to Lions -5, it's now back down to mostly 3.5's, which was the opener

I'm backing away from the game unless I see something

Down to Lions -3 at several big books......this game reminds me of Gbay -6 vs Browns, dropped to -3, & Gbay won by 7

I think Cinci has a chance of winning. But the line has come down to 3 or 3.5 and I feel I missed the window in which the value warrants a play. If the line creeps back up to 4.5 (and the ML with it) I will give it a harder look.

Yeah although GB backers really sweat that one. Browns cashed FH tickets there, so if I was betting Cinci this game (and as of now, I am not) I would consider FH +3 if you can get it, perhaps rather than the game line.
