Early bets for Week 9: Bengals stay hot? Another Cowboys shootout? Joe Burrow has thrown 13 touchdown passes over his past three games, all Bengals wins. The Cincinnati Bengals are riding a three-game winning streak. Will they keep the good times rolling Sunday in Madrid against the Atlanta Falcons? Joe Burrow has thrown at least four touchdowns in three straight games, and both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins can be schemed versus a Falcons defense that plays the second-highest rate of man-free coverage in the league.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys are coming off a brutal loss at home to the Arizona Cardinals and will look to fix their defensive woes against an Indianapolis Colts team that just got wiped out by the Jacksonville Jaguars. Matt Bowen and Pamela Maldonado break down the games and share the bets they're backing before potential odds shifts later in the week. Bowen favors the Bengals as road favorites, citing Burrow's touchdown form and the Falcons' man-free coverage tendencies.
Maldonado leans toward the OVER 52 in the Cowboys-Colts game, arguing Dallas cannot stop the run, which opens opportunities for Jonathan Taylor and easier throws for Daniel Jones. Last week: Lions -3 vs. Vikings (Result: Lions 19-15); Panthers-Packers OVER 47.5 (Result: Packers 27, Panthers 19). Note: Odds by Draft Kings and subject to change.
