CINCINNATI — The Bengals are betting favorites again this weekend as oddsmakers set Cincinnati to win by seven points or more on Sunday. The point total is set at 49.5 points between two shaky defenses.

Cincinnati covered in Sunday's win against Tennessee and enters this game 8-6 against the spread this season, while Cleveland lost straight up and ATS against Kansas City Sunday to fall to 4-10 ATS on the campaign.

The Bengals have been favored in 11-out-of-15 games this season.

The Bengals have to win this game and pray for a miracle to make the 2025 NFL Playoffs after Denver made things harder by beating Indianapolis on Sunday. Cincinnati's only path now is winning out and either the Broncos or Chargers losing all three of their remaining games.

Cincinnati's chances to make the dance only increased to 5% on The Athletic's projection following Sunday's win because of that daunting path in.

Game odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.
