Betting on the Cincinnati Bengals: 2024 Team Prop Bets Worth Considering
If you are anything like me, the return of the NFL is long overdue. Not only am I excited to root on the Bengals, either from Section 202 at Paycor Stadium or from the comfort of my house, but I finally can get back to NFL betting. No more NBA blowouts that nuke every parlay. No more unpredictable MLB games in the dog days of summer. It’s time to make some money.
I will be contributing a weekly article with Bengals props I am personally playing that week, with the research supporting each play. Fortunately, we don't have to wait until Week 1 to lock in some bets.
If you are new to the space, be sure to check out Taylor's first article which outlines the basics of betting.
Here are some of my favorite team season-long bets to make prior to the start of the regular season:
1. OVER 10.5 Wins (-120 FanDuel)
Barring any serious injury to Joe Burrow, the wins line on FanDuel it feels like a safe bet. In games he doesn’t leave early due to injury, Burrow is 27-14 in the regular season over the last three seasons. That .658 winning percentage equates to 11.2 wins in a 17 game season. Couple that with an easy schedule and the Bengals should have no issue cashing the over. If you are feeling extra frisky, the alt line of 11.5 wins is +180 on FanDuel.
2. More Wins Through 5 Weeks Than BAL (-125 DraftKings)
A hat tip is due to Connor Allen for putting me onto this play weeks ago. The Bengals will play three opponents in the first five weeks that could very well be picking top-5 in next year’s draft (Patriots, Commanders, Panthers). While the Chiefs and Ravens are formidable opponents, getting Baltimore at home helps. On the flip side, the Ravens have the single toughest schedule the first five weeks, playing four opponents projected to win at least ten games. This particular prop is only available on DraftKings Sportsbook.
3. To Win the AFC North (+165 FanDuel)
If you feel strongly that the Bengals will win at least 11 games, betting on them to win the division at plus money is a great bet. Over the last decade, the winner of the AFC North has averaged 11.8 wins. Cincinnati has won the AFC North in two of the last three seasons, with last year’s injury plagued campaign being the exception.
Stay tuned later this week for season-long player props I am attacking, including some tasty plus-odds bets.
*DISCLAIMER* This is not intended to be betting advice, rather these are some props I like and have placed my money on. While I use data and research to support my picks, there is no such thing as a sure bet. Always remember to only bet amounts you are comfortable losing.
