CINCINNATI — The best-spread team in the NFL is favored on the road this week.

Joe Burrow and the Bengals are 3.5-point favorites against the Patriots on Christmas Eve, with a total set at 39.5 points.

Cincinnati is now an NFL-best 11-3 against the spread this season after covering the same number against Tampa Bay in a 34-23 win. They have now won and covered six straight games. Only one other Bengals team has done that: the 1988 AFC Champion squad.

On top of another individual win, The Bengals can go over their season win total (10 wins) for a second straight year if they keep the streak rolling.

The Bengals are 11-3 ATS this season, while New England is 7-6-1. At home, they are just 3-3 ATS, while Cincinnati is an NFL-best 6-1 ATS on the road.
