Key Stats
Washington Commanders
The Washington Commanders are coming off a win against the New York Giants. They won the game without scoring a touchdown. That is impressive no matter the opponent. Jayden Daniels has been impressive in his first two games. Although he hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass yet, he’s been very accurate with his passes completing 75.5% of his passes which is 5th in the NFL. Brian Robinson Jr. had an exceptional game last week. He ran the ball 17 times for 133 yards. That is how this team is going to win games. Run the ball, control the clock, and put Daniels in easier situations.
The Commanders’ defense has been bad through two games. They rank 29th in the NFL allowing 27.5 points per game and 30th in sacks. This team does not get to the opposing quarterback. Washington does not stop offenses. This is a bad defense that will have their hands full this week against one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL Joe Burrow and one of the best receivers in Ja’Marr Chase.
Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals are coming off a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Joe Burrow and the Bengals’ offense haven’t gotten going yet. They ranked 22nd in the NFL in terms of points per game with 17.5. We have seen their offensive line struggle in the running game averaging just 72 yards per game, which is 30th in the NFL. Hopeful news, Tee Higgins, who has missed the first two games with a hamstring injury, is trending in a positive direction head coach Zac Taylor said. That is another weapon that could help kickstart their offense.
The Bengals’ defense has been good through the first two weeks. They rank 15th in points allowed per game, however, Cincy is 2nd in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game. That is excellent considering they held Patrick Mahomes to a career-low 151 passing yards last week. Going against a rookie quarterback this week, if they can keep Daniels in the pocket and limit the damage he does with his legs, they will be in a good spot to win this game.
Prediction
The Cincinnati Bengals will pulverize the Washington Commanders in this game. This is a bad matchup for the Commanders. The Bengals’ offense will finally shift into gear, assuming Tee Higgins plays. Even if he doesn’t, Burrow will snap out of this funk he has been in. For the Bengals’ defense, I love their matchup against a rookie quarterback. Trey Hendrickson is a star pass rusher and will have his hand imprinted in this game. The Bengals win and they win big in this game.
Final Pick
Cincinnati Bengals -7.5 (-110)
