and Pittsburgh Steelers (+3.5) in an afternoon time slot. That is because the NFL flexed this game out of its Sunday Night Football slot.
You can chalk it up to the Steelers not looking like the Steelers of old or that the Bengals have also recently laid a stinker on Monday Night Football.
Either way, fans will get to enjoy this game even sooner in the day.
This is the second meeting between these teams this season. Week 1, Cincinnati looked completely disjointed on offense as Joe Burrow and the offensive line were playing their first live snaps together as most of them skipped the preseason.
