New York Jets vs. Cincinnati Bengals Prediction
I’m on the Bengals here. I think the Jets’ best shot at a win was last week and I think that they get crushed once again here. The Bengals found something against Pittsburgh last week, and I think Cincinnati beats up on New York here to pick up another much needed win. Give me the Bengals.
