The Cincinnati Bengals hit the road for the first time in nearly a month and will do so against the Denver Broncos at Empower Field at Mile High. Both teams are 7-6 and still in the running to make it into the playoffs as a Wild Card team.
After dropping two straight game, the Bengals need a win to right the ship and have any chance of winning the AFC North. The Wild Card is such a mess right now and the only way to ensure the stripes make the playoffs for the first time since the 2015 season is to win the division.
This game won’t be easy though, as the injury bug has bit the Bengals hard in recent weeks. They lost Logan Wilson to an injury and now will be without right tackle Riley Reiff, which is going to be a big loss against the Broncos’ pass rush.
Hopefully, Zac Taylor at least learned his lesson about not putting the ball in Joe Burrow’s hands when the game is on the line. If he learned that valuable lesson, the good guys have a chance at getting back in the win column.

Bengals vs Broncos Odds, Spread, Over/Under & Betting Pick Week 15
WynnBET has Cincinnati as 3-point underdogs against the Broncos with a money line of +125 while Denver’s money line is -150. The over/under is set at 44.5 points.
With Denver being the home team and sitting as 3-point favorites, Vegas thinks that this game would be even if the game was being played on a neutral field. It’s not hard to see why as these two teams have been incredibly up and down throughout the season but they’re still very much in the playoff picture.
Hopefully, Cincinnati learned its lesson last week by being too conservative in the most important moments. If Taylor is serious about letting his quarterback cook in those big moments, Cincy should be able to get a W. Let’s go with a 28-24 Cincinnati victory.
