The Cincinnati Bengals have been in the playoffs in six of the last seven years, and have yet to win a game. The offense seems to go in the tank in the post-season, as they have not scored more than 17 points in any of the seven games. Last year was a turning point for the Bengals defense, as the offense has been good for a significant period of time. The Bengals allowed just 17.5 points per game a year ago, and that was the least points they have given up since division realignment occurred in 2002. The Jets have not made the playoffs since 2011 and are just 28-36 SU over the last four years. All you have to do is look at their average points scored since the start of the 2012 season, sitting at 19.4 points per game, and that tells the story. They no longer have Chris Ivory, and it is hard to see where the offense doesn't regress this season. They won 10 games a year ago despite scoring 20 or less in seven games, mainly because the defense allowed less than 20 points per game. The Jets have always seemed to be a defensive team at home with not much of an explosive offense. The last 217 games played here have averaged less than 40 total points. This has been a chamber of horrors for the Cincinnati offense, which has played here seven times since 1992. And in six of those games, they scored 14 points or less. Make the play on the UNDER.
