The Cincinnati Bengals appear to open the 2024 NFL season with a relatively favorable game.
Oddsmakers out in Las Vegas would seemingly agree, with the Bengals boasting the largest spread in their favor of any Week 1 matchup.
Right after the full 2024 schedule was revealed, the Bengals were 8.5-point favorites over the New England Patriots at BetMGM.
While the the Bengals have been notorious for slow starts over the last few years, this one isn’t much of a shocker. That’s a home opener for the Bengals and those Patriots have hit the reset button after the Bill Belichick era and will start either Jacoby Brissett or rookie Drake Maye under center.
