Gardner Minshew just had his worst game against an elite defense, but this is definitely a get-right spot. The Jags should be able to run it all over the Bengals' league-worst rushing defense (per yards per carry), and Jacksonville's defensive line should devour Cincy's poor unit up front. Cincy's opener against Seattle threw us off their scent, but they've been outgained by 110-plus yards every week since. This line is going up, especially in a year where home-field advantage hasn't mattered as much, so hop on it while you can get in relatively cheap.
The Bengals are bad, and now they’re banged up, too. They’re going to be without both starters at corner, with Dre Kirkpatrick expected to miss a month and William Jackson expected out a few weeks. Cincy already had the worst run defense in the league, so it seems the Jags can take their pick: restart Minshew Mania or let Leonard Fournette run wild … or both. The 0-6 Bengals are 3-3 ATS, but 0-2 ATS at home. Lay the points.
Cincy's top two corners are hurt and the Bengals stink. The Jags are a much better team, and Gardner Minshew will get going again here. Lay the points.
The Jaguars are better than their record, while the Bengals are a legitimate 0-6. Moreover, they're decimated by injuries this week, with both starting cornerbacks and a starting safety expected to miss Sunday's game. Lay it as Leonard Fournette and Gardner Minshew enjoy big days.
