Oddsmakers currently have the Bengals listed as 13½-point favorites versus the Jaguars, while the game’s total is sitting at 43.
Cincinnati entered last week having allowed an average of 36 points and 481 yards in its past three games, all winless, but held Baltimore to 294 yards. Dalton, who was signed to a big contract extension this offseason, has just six TD passes – lowest among all starters – and his 89.7 passer rating ranks 20th. He’s found a new go-to receiver in Mohamad Sanu, who had a career-high 125 receiving yards last week, but Dalton hopes A.J. Green will be healthy after missing the last three games with a toe injury.
In their last action, Cincinnati was a 27-24 winner at home against the Ravens. They covered the +2.5-point spread as underdogs, while the combined score (51) was profitable news for OVER bettors.

It has been a rough indoctrination into the NFL for the rookie Bortles, who ranks second-to-last in passer rating (68.3) with six touchdowns and a league-high 12 interceptions. “Obviously, I’m not happy with the way I’m playing,” Bortles said. “I understand that being down and mad at myself and pouting won’t help. I have to learn from it and get better.” Converted Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson has been a pleasant surprise at running back, gaining 235 yards on 40 carries the last two weeks, becoming the first Jaguars back to have consecutive 100-yard games since Maurice Jones-Drew had three straight in 2011.
Last time out for Jacksonville, they were a 27-13 loser as they battled the Dolphins at home. The Jaguars failed to cover in the match as a +7-point underdog, while 40 combined points moved the game UNDER for totals bettors.
