12/19/21 Best Bet: Denver Broncos -3 (-110)
I circled this game on my sheet the second I saw it earlier in the week. Of course, back then I was able to get the Broncos -1.5. I hesitated to give it out because I assumed the public would come in on the Bengals and move the line in my favor. Well, I was right on that, the public has been all over Cincy in this one, however, the line has moved the other way. Translation: the big money is on the Broncos. I still like it. Denver has the best inherit home field advantage in the NFL with the altitude. Plus, I love the matchup of Denver’s secondary against Joe Burrow. I like having Teddy Two Gloves taking care of the ball and turning this into a rushing affair against Cincy. Denver is also the more rested team, coasting to an easy win last week, while the Bengals were going to OT in a war against the Niners. In what will be more like a playoff game, I trust the team with the better defense in Denver.
