We are coming to the end of 2024, and the NFL regular season is in its 17th week. That is to say, there are only two rounds left to determine the teams that will fight for the Vince Lombardi trophy in the postseason.

For now, several franchises have already secured their tickets for the postseason. However, there are still other spots to be filled, and these last two weeks will be decisive.

Now, for this Saturday, December 28, 2024, the NFL has scheduled a game that is not suitable for cardiac. The Cincinnati Bengals (7-8) will host the Denver Broncos (9-6) at Paycor Stadium at 4:30 PM ET. For the Bengals, it is a do-or-die game, because if they do not get the victory, their mathematical chances of qualifying for the playoffs will be finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why bet on the Bengals?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Bengals<\/a> must secure a win in their next game to keep their playoff hopes alive.

It is disappointing that a team that started the season as a top contender now finds itself in this situation. Despite their struggles, quarterback Joe Burrow has proven his elite status with impressive statistics and leading the league in TDs. Wide receiver Jamar Chase has also excelled, leading the league in receiving yards.<\/strong>

The main problems for the Bengals lie in their ground game, as they rank as the fourth-worst team in ground yards per game, and in their defense, which has had trouble stopping opponents both at the air and the ground.<\/strong> Their defensive performance has resulted in them being ranked as the fifth-worst defense in the league, conceding a large amount of yards and points per game.

The Bengals are coming off three consecutive wins, the most recent against the Browns by 24-6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why bet on the Broncos?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Broncos <\/a>have shown signs of improvement after years of being average or below. Coach Sean Payton has been developing a strong team that now has a chance to secure a playoff berth, surprising many who did not expect them to be contenders.

The strength of the Denver team lies in their defense, which allows only 18 points per game and is considered one of the best in the league.<\/strong> Key players like Pat Surtain II and Riley Moss have excelled in the secondary, while Zach Allen has played a crucial role in stopping the opponents’ ground game. Outside linebacker Jonathan Cooper has also been instrumental in creating pressure on the opposing quarterback.

However, there are concerns about the offense. Although rookie quarterback Bo Nix has shown potential at times during the regular season, he has had inconsistent performances with a notable number of interceptions. The focus now turns to whether Nix can lead the team to a playoff victory in January.

The Broncos are coming off a 27-34 loss to the Chargers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
