Result: Push
ASA play on 8* CINCINNATI BENGALS +2.5 vs. Buffalo Bills, 8:15 PM ET - 20-3 ATS! That’s the Bengals spread record going back their 23 games. These two teams have similar offensive/defensive statistics for the season, but the Bengals have played the slightly tougher schedule. After losing the season opener at home, the Bengals have ripped off 5 straight home wins, including a 3-point victory over the Chiefs in early December as a +2.5-point dog. Buffalo is 6-2 SU away from home this season but only one of those road wins (KC) was against a caliber of team such as the Bengals. Cincinnati is on a 7-game winning streak and has a total net yards difference in those games of +422 total yards. Buffalo is 6-1 SU their last seven games with a plus +335-net yardage differential. This game has huge playoff implications for both teams so we know both will be ready to play at a high level here. We like the home dog regardless of the situation and feel the Bengals are being undervalued by the Books in this one. The Underdog has covered 7 of the last nine and we like that trend to continue here.
