Bengals at Raiders – NFL Football Odds
NFL football odds have been beaten 6 out of 9 times by the Cincinnati Bengals although the Oakland Raiders take a football betting mark of 4-5 against the spread. NFL football odds favor the Bengals to win the AFC North right after their 18-12 football betting win at Pittsburgh last week as 6.5-point road dogs.
It had been the Bengals most impressive win but using the NFL football odds as defeating the defending Super Bowl champions and their divisional arch rival gives them enhanced football betting credibility. Cincinnati is now 7-2 straight up and has covered the online betting line in 3 straight games. The Bengals are 3-1 with the NFL football odds on the road this year.
The Raiders are 2-7 straight up and have lost 5 out of their last 7 games with the NFL football odds. Oakland is coming off a 10-16 loss towards the NFL football odds as 1-point home favorites against the Kansas City Chiefs last week.
The Oakland Raiders have one in the worst offenses in the league since they rank 31st using the NFL football odds for scoring. Quarterback JaMarcus Russell has been an embarrassment this year having a QB rating of 47.9 plus a 2/9 touchdown to interception ratio. Head coach Tom Cable lastly had adequate in last week’s loss towards the NFL football odds while he benched Russell favoring the use of Bruce Gradkowski. The Raiders are undecided who will start at QB against the Bengals.
“I explained to him (Russell) when I took him out of the game on the sideline, the last two throws were all over the place,” mentioned Cable. “Just a number of mental errors and misreads and so I made the change and it is what it is.”
Whoever Oakland begins at quarterback figures to have rather a challenge because the Bengals defense is one of the most effective with the NFL football odds because it ranks 2nd overall for points permitted.
The Raiders have covered 4 out of their last 5 home games against the Bengals plus the two teams go underneath the total in those 5 games.
