Bold predictions for Bills at Bengals: Buffalo defense holds Burrow to one or less passing touchdown

Buffalo’s defense has had some moments of weariness this year, but all in all, they’ve gotten it together as the season has gone on. They currently rank as the 14th-best passing defense in football and have allowed the fifth-fewest passing touchdowns this year.

Let’s get a little more specific. On the season, the Bills have allowed one or fewer touchdown passes in 10 of their 15 games. You wonder why Burrow is going to struggle in this one? It’s because of this Bills secondary putting on their best performance of the year.

In their last two games combined, the Bengals have rushed for a total of 126 yards as a team. That’s not great, for those wondering.

In this one, though, the Bengals will score the majority of their points on the ground. With Burrow struggling, we’re going to see the Bengals run for over 150 yards on the night and a combined three touchdowns between Joe Mixon and Semaje Perine.

In the end, Buffalo will pull this thing out 30-27 in a razor-thin game. It’ll be one for the books.
