Jaguars vs. Bengals Odds
Game Preview
The Jaguars travel to Ohio full of confidence after delivering a 35-6 blowout victory over the New England Patriots in Week 3. Believe it or not, the Jags defense is the NFL’s No. 1 scoring defense, allowing 12 points per game.
Their offense isn’t anything special, but when the numbers add up, they are No.10 in scoring, delivering 27.3 ppg. WR Parker Washington had a strong start, having caught 221 yards in the opening three events, while RB Bhayshul Tuten had 204 rushing yards.
Bengals could have gone 3-0 if it weren’t for another poor O-line performance when needed the most. Burrow was sacked on the potential game-winning drive with less than a minute to go, fumbling the ball and practically handing Pittsburgh the win.
Burrow played well overall, throwing for 282 passing yards and 3 touchdowns. Though, the Bengals run attack was poor, generating only 83 yards on the ground.
Jaguars vs. Bengals Predictions
Jags statistically have the best defense in the league, yet two of their rivals were the Browns and the Pats, which they limited to 16 points combined. Bengals’ offense is very potent, and we believe it will unmask Jacksonville’s defense and bring the hosts a much-needed win here.
