The New England Patriots face the Cincinnati Bengals in a rematch, but this time, the Patriots are favorites with a strong record. The Bengals offense is struggling without Joe Burrow, and their defense, despite investments, has underperformed. Key players like Trey Hendrickson and Myles Murphy are out, leaving the Bengals defense in a challenging position. To pull off an upset, the Bengals need their reserve players to step up and play a complete game, including getting crucial stops and forcing turnovers.
