10* NFL GAME OF THE MONTH
(NFL) Green Bay vs. Cincinnati,
Point Spread: 3.00 | -123.00 Cincinnati (Home)
Result: Win
The Bengals should easily be sitting at 2-0 after they were up double digits on the road against the Bears and if they did close that game out late we would have a different spread here in my opinion. It also hurt the Bengals that they looked poor on Monday night and now the public is rushing behind the Packers after their huge win over the Redskins.
Andy Dalton, the young signal caller is managing the offense well and while the big plays will start coming often, there are playmakers to spread the ball to. A.J. Green is the obvious first choice and he leads the team with 15 catches and 203 yards with two scores. Jermaine Gresham and Tyler Eifert are a formidable duo at tight end and should see some success as the Packers continue to struggle in covering the middle of the field. Giovani Bernard had a coming out party with two scores Monday Night and he rounds out what can be a top-notch offense but we will see what they can do when the pressure is on to put up a lot of points. Look for a big game out of A.J Green as he was quiet on MNF. GREEN BAY does not have a good offensive line and I expect the Bengals front to get after Aaron Rodgers. A.J. Green should have a huge game as the Packers lack a guy that can shut him down like the Steelers did.
