A pair of struggling defensive teams meet up. The big difference, though, is offensive production. Cincinnati has lost three in a row despite averaging 33 points. There's nothing with this offense, ranked ninth in total yards and No. 1 in passing behind QB Joe Burrow (30 TDs, 5 INTs), WRs Ja'Marr Chase (1,142 yards), and Tee Higgins. In the last three games, Burrow has thrown 428, 356, and 309 yards. The Bengals are 5-1 ATS on the road. Dallas is on a 2-5 SU/ATS run and is 1-5 SU/ATS at home. The offense is down to backup QB Cooper Rush, the second-worst in rushing with 85.8 yards per game and just 3.7 yards per carry. The defense is 23rd in yards allowed, 28th in points given up (28.3 per game), and last in the red zone (76.92%). Cornerback Trevon Diggs (knee injury) hasn’t played the previous two weeks and is questionable. Play Cincinnati.
