Bengals open as significant underdog to Falcons

The Bengals will look to regroup from their first loss of 2018 when they face the Falcons in Week 4.

While Cincinnati wants to bounce back from Sunday’s debacle and prove they’re a legitimate contender, the Falcons are just trying to salvage their season before things get out of hand. After an overtime loss to the Saints, Atlanta is now 1-2 this year, and a 1-3 start could cripple their playoff hopes in a highly competitive NFC South.

Even though the Falcons are struggling, they’re currently a significant favorite at home over the Bengals in Week 4:
