LA Chargers vs Cincinnati Bengals Prediction
The LA Chargers are playing the more consistent ball, they’re at home, and they have the best scoring defense in the NFL. The Cincinnati Bengals continue to have issues finishing Games, and their defense lets them down time and time again. With all that said, the Bengals are clicking offensively and that gives them a fighting chance against anybody. If the Bengals could get a stop or two, they upset the Ravens on the road. The Bengals have also seen 3 of their 4 wins come on the road this season, and they’ve had extra time to prepare for this Game. I’ll take a stab with the Bengals and the points.
