The NFL regular season is going on, as we maintain our focus on the best teams of last season waiting for further developments. In this context, we’ll go to the Paycor Stadium to have a rematch between the Super Bowl LVI protagonists: Bengals and Rams.
The locals will be the Tigers, who had an awful start to the season and need to recover soon. In their favor, last season they also started slowly.
For their part, the Angelinos will visit Cincinnati hoping to get a positive result. Until now, they have been looking much better than in their terrible title-defense campaign.
When:
Monday, September 25th at 6:15 pm ET at the Paycor Stadium
Moneyline odds:
Rams +115
Bengals -141

Why Bet on the Bengals?
The Bengals look to claim their first win of the young season when they host the match at Paycor Stadium on Monday Night Football.
Cincinnati is 0-2 after dropping a pair of contests to AFC North Division foes in Cleveland and Baltimore. The Bengals trailed the Ravens by 10 twice in the second half in Week 2, and each time the offense put together extended scoring drives to claw back into the game.
Despite opening the season with consecutive losses, Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor remains encouraged that his team will not only respond with a stronger performance on Monday night but will benefit from the early adversity over the next three months of games.
Why Bet on the Rams?
The Rams came into the season with a big uphill battle to be relevant in the NFC, but so far, they are up to the challenge. They have a few superstars and a lot of guys who are trying to make a name for themselves in the league, but through two weeks, they have shown that they are fighters and can compete with good teams.
Kyren Williams has taken over the backfield and has proven he is capable of handling the load. The offensive line has a lot of question marks, but most of the answers have been positive.
The O-line wore down on Sunday against San Francisco’s relentless pass rush, but they held up fine in Seattle and should be able to hold up this week against the Bengals. When McVay has the players, he is one of the best offensive minds in the game and has proven it this year.
Rams at Bengals Free Betting Pick:
Although we could compare this year to the last couple of years when the Bengals turned it around after a slow start, we think the Rams have the advantage this week. They came into the year being told they had no chance and proceeded to dominate the Seahawks and compete with the 49ers.
They now know that they are a legitimate playoff contender in a weak NFC and have the veteran leaders to push them in that direction. The Bengals, on the other hand, have this dilemma about what to do with Burrow, and the team is not playing loose or with any confidence.
If Burrow is not close to 100%, we think he will play with too much caution, and the priority will be for him to not aggravate the injury rather than go all out to win the game. The Rams could jump out early in this one, and Taylor may raise the white flag and choose to keep his superstar QB on the sidelines. In a lot of ways, this game leans to the Rams.
Go for a straight win for the Los Angeles Rams in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 at +115, you will gain $115 for a total payout of $215
