Preview

Cincinnati Bengals are our pick against the Atlanta Falcons at a neutral venue in Week 9. The model gives them a 70% chance of winning, which makes this game a 65%+ top pick.

Cincinnati Bengals have the higher team rating (1580 to 1464), built from results and winning margins.

Quarterbacks: we expect Joe Burrow to start for Cincinnati Bengals (91 career starts); we expect Michael Penix Jr. to start for Atlanta Falcons (18 career starts). We assume each team's most recent starter plays unless the injury report says otherwise.

Season so far: Cincinnati Bengals are 5–2 and Atlanta Falcons are 3–5.

What could change the pick: late quarterback news. We re-check every 30 minutes until kick-off, then the pick is frozen and stays on our public record, win or lose.

This is one of our top picks: Cincinnati Bengals at 70% to win.

Twice a week, Monday and Thursday: the model's GREEN calls, how the last batch went, wins and misses both. Free.
