The Atlanta Falcons (3-3) visit the Cincinnati Bengals (3-3) Sunday at 1 p.m. ET (FOX). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Falcons vs. Bengals odds, and make our expert NFL picks and predictions.
The Falcons have shocked everyone with their performance this season. With TE Kyle Pitts being a non-factor in most games, they have still been able to get out to a 3-3 record behind QB Marcus Mariota. Even better, they’re 6-0 against the spread (ATS). Rookies RB Tyler Allgeier and WR Drake London have stepped into the voids left by WR Calvin Ridley (suspended) and RB Cordarrelle Patterson'(knee injury) and kept the Falcons from bottoming out like many expected.
The Bengals, after a slow start, have started to come alive. After a summer appendectomy, we knew QB Joe Burrow would take a bit to feel himself. This certainly was the case as Cincinnati opened 0-2. But in a 30-26 victory at New Orleans last Sunday, Cincy was finally able to get off the scoring schneid. The Bengals will hope to be able to score Sunday as well as points will be important for them to win this one.
