Broncos Have had Edge Over Bengals in Recent Meetings
The Broncos will try to improve to 3-0 SU and ATS on the season when they head to Cincinnati for their first road game of the season. They’ve been straight-up winners in five of the last six games vs the Bengals, who will be looking to rebound following a 23-16 defeat at the hands of the Steelers.
This will be the Bengals’ first home game of the 2016 campaign. They went 6-3 SU and 4-3-2 ATS at home last season. Somewhat surprisingly, the Bengals have allowed the most rushing yards (276) in the NFL through two weeks, so pounding the ball will be a big part of Denver’s game plan as it was in their first two games. The Broncos have averaged 30 rush attempts per game so far, which has yielded 141 yards per game, fourth-best in the league.
Including last year’s playoffs, the Broncos have seven straight wins, but they haven’t been a team to back on the road as they’ve covered the spread just once in their last five games outside of Denver. Regarding their rush attack, lead back C.J. Anderson was significantly less effective in road games last season — 3.5 yards per rush attempt and 0 TDs on the road vs 5.9 yards per rush attempt and five TDs at home.
