Cincinnati Bengals NFL Week 7 Betting Lines
The Cincinnati Bengals invaded Gotham Sunday night sorely in need of a win to boost team morale after dropping a trio of heartbreakers to the Chiefs, Commanders, and Ravens in recent weeks. Though it was far from pretty—or as high scoring as the online sportsbook would’ve liked—that’s exactly what went down under the Sunday night lights when Joe Burrow and Co. came out with the 17-7 win and NFL spread cover; largely due to Chase Brown hooking his anytime touchdown scorer backers up by plunging into the end zone with 1:52 remaining to put the finishing touches on the dominant road performance. Those booking the bets were none too pleased about that 30-yard tuddy considering Cincy was aligned with around 60 percent of the bets and money leading up to kick-off. The win pushed the team to 2-4 SU and 3-3 against the closing NFL odds and thrust the team into a position to put forth another comeback much like the one churned out last season before No. 9 was lost in Week 11. Early action reports relay nothing but Cincy money flooding in for the first of their two AFC North brawls against the Cleveland Browns.
The Bengals odds of winning the Super Bowl remained static at 30-1 following the Big Apple road win and cover, while their odds of taking down the AFC shortened up from +1600 to +1500. Cincinnati’s odds of becoming the King of the AFC North actually got a bit longer jumping from +850 to +950, while their adjusted in-season win total odds remained steady at 8.5 with even juice on both sides of the impost after initially hitting the board 10.5. Once a heavy -250 favorite to punch a ticket to the playoffs, the Bengals odds of qualifying currently clock in at +115 with the “No” the -140 chalk favorite after paying out $200 on a $100 investment before the season kicked off.

Cincinnati Bengals Week 7 Matchup
On Sunday, October 20, 2024, the Cincinnati Bengals will take on the Cleveland Browns from Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, OH. Kickoff time is set for 1 p.m. ET with television coverage on CBS. The lookahead NFL Week 7 betting lines hit the board with the Bengals laying 3.5-points and the total set at 45.5. After riding the Bengals to a ticket cash last Sunday night, customers betting on the NFL with crypto look to be down for another go on the Cincinnati bandwagon with Taylor’s troops hogging nearly 90 percent of the early booked bets and money. Due to the influx of support on the visitors, the “Who Dey Nation” will now be forced to lay upwards of 5-points with their beloved team to get in the money. This scenario has been lucrative for NFL bettors in year’s past with the Bengals logging 8-2 SU and NFL spread records when asked to lay between 3-6 points away from the ‘Natti. The over cashed at a 6-3-1 clip in those matchups with 49.0 points scored on average. That however hasn’t had an effect on the Over/Under for this tilt with the number to beat down to 43 regardless of only 20+ percent of the booked tickets and handle coming in support of a low scorer playing out. The under is 2-0-1 the last three times these hated rivals squared off in front of the “Dawg Pound.”
Cincinnati Bengals Week 6 Recap
The Cincinnati Bengals secured a must-have 17-7 victory and NFL odds cover over the New York Giants, providing hope after a rough 2-4 start. Joe Burrow led the Bengals with a career-long 47-yard touchdown run on the opening drive, setting the tone early. Despite not putting up big passing numbers, Burrow made key plays when needed, including a pivotal 33-yard completion to Ja'Marr Chase that led to a go-ahead field goal by Evan McPherson. The Bengals’ defense, which had been heavily criticized, stepped up significantly. Trey Hendrickson recorded two sacks, and linebacker Germaine Pratt’s interception near the goal line halted a Giants scoring threat. Chase Brown sealed the game with a 30-yard touchdown run after a near-fumble, capping off the Bengals' limited scoring. McPherson also redeemed himself after missing a game-winner the previous week by converting a crucial 37-yard field goal. Defensively, Cincinnati overcame its recent struggles, holding the Giants to just one touchdown and forcing multiple punts and missed field goals. The Bengals defense showed resilience, especially after allowing over 40 points the previous week. This win not only lifted team morale but also kept Cincinnati’s playoff hopes alive. Despite lingering issues, the Bengals showed grit and an ability to win a close, low-scoring game.
