The last time these teams played, the Cincinnati Bengals beat the brakes off of the Baltimore Ravens, 41-17. That was two months ago and these teams look a lot different now. The Ravens are coming off another heartbreaking loss, while the Bengals got a hard-fought win against the Denver Broncos.

These teams are tied at the top of the division, with the Bengals holding the tiebreaker. This could very well be the game that decides the AFC North. Who will come out on top?

Ravens vs. Bengals Prediction and Pick

Matt De Saro broke this game down earlier this week and is still riding high from the Ravens’ performance without Jackson last week. 

I was very impressed with the Ravens coming so close to beating the Packers with a backup QB. The game should have gone to overtime, but for the second time this year, the Ravens gave a game away because they didn’t want to settle for a possible tie. They will have Jackson back this week barring some unexpected setback, and he will be the key to victory against the Bengals.

I’m with De Saro that the Ravens will be competitive in this game, and that they will win this game. Baltimore is two 2-point conversions away from being 10-4 and having the No. 1 seed. They can play with anyone in the league and now that Jackson is coming back, they’ll be ready for their rematch. 

Pick: Ravens ML (+145)
