00:00Bengals and Ravens this week the biggest line movement of the week it was Ravens minus two
00:04most of the week then it flipped to about even then it went to Bengals minus one and that was
00:10the indication Friday that there's no chance the Ravens are a dog at all on a Friday if Lamar
00:16Jackson's gonna play and indeed he is out so it would appear that Lamar's either hurt more
00:20than has been indicated or going into the final year of his contract Lamar Jackson's just like
00:25I'm not going back on the field until I'm healthy can't blame him doesn't have a new contract that's
00:29the deal so Cincinnati is two and a half point favorites it's up to three in some spots I have
00:33a feeling by kickoff going to be a little higher uh yeah you know the Ravens when all things are
00:39right they're one of the best teams in the NFL but Joe doesn't like me ripping Tyler Huntley but
00:45you know just the reality of the situation I mean Joe it's just the reality of the situation is look
00:50I suppose if Josh Allen was out and whoever their backup is in Buffalo you guys would have to tell
00:55me I don't even know but whoever his backup is okay Kyle Allen right so so going from Josh Allen
01:01to Kyle Allen is significant but this is right up there Joe like for me like I like I think
01:07that
01:07Phillies backup could hang and Brissette is a backup but he's hanging and Keenum can hang
01:12I I can't take Baltimore today I know what the line is and I know these division games are always
01:18tight I can't do it it's either Bengals or nothing for me today I just think it's amusing that you
01:23keep
01:23piling on to Tyler Huntley and we all know it's already bad it's the meme of you know the Simpsons
01:29bully saying stop stop he's already dead and Craig Miss just continually is just just pounding away
01:35on him you're a few it's it's like Christmas story where Ralphie is just on the bully and the mom's
01:40got to pull him off and I'm gonna have to be the mom in this case and pull you off
01:43of the red-headed
01:44kid who's bullying you and it's it's okay Craig it's okay come on we'll go home we'll have some more
01:49milk and you'll be fine let's talk about this game here because you're right the individual games
01:53are always strange and unusual and we've seen that time and time again and I'm sure both these
01:58teams are up and ready for this game you've also got some questions on the Bengals side too Chase
02:01Brown has not been great this year he was a slow start last year too it really wasn't the last
02:06eight
02:06weeks of the season where Chase Brown really turned things on can he do it again or are we back
02:11to the
02:11Samaji Pirine show that's gonna be a fascinating headline in this game to watch and a narrative as you
02:16continue to see what Chase Brown is in 2026 because so far it's been underwhelming as you're right
02:22you despite the fact we have Zay Flowers healthy and Jacoby Lane healthy and Derek Henry healthy you
02:27have a deficit the quarterback position can the Ravens find a way to continue to put up points
02:31in this game I think they can and I still as this continues to get bet down I become more
02:36and more
02:36interesting where it lands because if it starts to land at 44 and a half or somewhere like that I
02:40think I would still take the over because I think the Bengals on their own are good for a good
02:45chunk
02:45of points in there you could see them even get to a 30 potentially in this game so
02:49can the Ravens at least hang and match something in terms of offense I think they can and I don't
02:55think there's gonna be any quit in this game here they know the magnitude of this game and you can't
02:59lose back-to-back division games here especially you're at home in this one against the Bengals so
03:03I still like the over and I would wait as long as I can whatever lowest number I can before
03:08I jump
03:08on it yeah by the way most of the sort of like insiders and like hot button discussions surrounding
03:17Jonathan Taylor has him landing in Cincinnati that's the one spot that does seem to make the
03:22most sense if the Bengals keep winning and then you add him to that offense all of a sudden
03:26becomes a superstar type offense
03:28friends
03:28workers
