Broncos Enter Monday Night as Touchdown Favorites vs. Burrow-Less Bengals

Analysts cite Cincinnati’s offensive slide plus Denver’s home field as the edge.

Overview

  • Denver hosts Cincinnati on Monday, Sept. 29 at Empower Field at Mile High in the Week 4 night game.
  • Joe Burrow is expected to miss the matchup with a toe injury, leaving Jake Browning in line to start at quarterback for the Bengals.
  • Oddsmakers list Denver around -7 to -7.5, and most expert pick panels lean Broncos to rebound at home.
  • The Broncos sit 1-2 after two late field-goal losses and must clean up time of possession, turnovers, and poor early-down efficiency, with calls to lean more on the run.
  • Cincinnati is coming off a 48-10 loss in Minnesota and ranks near the bottom on offense, including a league-worst 49 rushing yards per game, putting added focus on Bo Nix’s decision-making for Denver.
