**Thanksgiving Night- Bengals at Ravens**(-7, 51.5) 8:20 (5 Viewers)

Interesting game to fall asleep to Turkey Day night after all that tryptophan
Burrow back
Will he be rusty?
Can The Ravens finally live up to the hype?
Bengals can actually stay relevant in the division with a win
Ravens could actually leap frog The Steelers by the end of the weekend
Should be close all night
If you can stay awake...

Ravens- 33

Bungles- 27
 
I think this is a big gut-check game for Lamar Jackson, against the NFL's worst defense. I think he'll have a much better week than the last 2 weeks, and wouldn't hesitate to start him. I also think he'll be a little livelier running. I think Flowers moves around enough to mostly avoid DJ Turner (who is basically the Bengals only good defender) and I think Bateman's return at least gives the illusion of the deep ball. I think Henry could have a huge game as well, and I could see the Bengals D rolling over some.

The return of Burrow is a good thing for the Bengals offense, even if he's a little rusty this week. No Tee Higgins mean Mitchell Tinsley will be playing in his place, and to be honest, I have no idea why Tinsley is behind Iosivas. Ja'Marr Chase ripped up the Ravens a year ago, and I'd expect him to have strong game even with added attention from no Higgins. The return of Perine likely hurts Chase Brown some, and the matchup isn't great. I wouldn't be counting on Brown as a top-12 RB this week.

Ravens-35
Bengals-21

No mention of him… Do you think Andrews ears against the league worst defense against the tight end.

I think he's a solid bet for a redzone target or 2. I don't think he'll have a line like Hunter Henry had last week though. I'd consider him a top-8 TE.
 
Lamar personally got 2 of my best NFFC Cutline teams cut last week. Dude only needed to combine for 26 pts in weeks 11 and 12 and scored like 15.

Now I have to fight from the WC round back in which is nearly impossible (top 10 out of 324)

If Lamar can't do it vs Cincy he never will.
 
I went hog wild picking up Burrow a couple weeks ago playing him in a bunch leagues now hope he don't suck tonight. Baltimore D has turned it around since Houston laid the pipe to them.
 
Bengals might have the worst LBs in recent history. To think they benched Logan Wilson, who is much better than what they replaced him with.

ETA: PA is gonna be there all night
 
Not that PFF ranks are the end all be all, but pretty telling when they flash them on the screen and only one starter for Bengals Defense is ranked even in the top 30 at their position. Pretty sure one guy was ranked 83 out of 83

With no Hendrickson, its DJ Turner and 10 other guys.

ETA: I'd guess that 83rd out of 83 is a LB.

It definitely was a LBer, and like you said, Turner was the only guy with a rank better than the 30's (12). A lot of guys were like 75th out of 90 or something
 
Got to be FN kidding me. Perine shouldn't even be in the game to waste a play. Not targeting Chase at all.

Dumb as hell you can't score there.
