Miami Dolphins vs Cincinnati Bengals Sun. Oct. 31^st 1pm EST

The Cincinnati Bengals came into this NFL regular season with high hopes of defending their AFC North division title and possibly making a run at the Super Bowl as they seemed to have one of the most potent offenses in the NFL with the addition of perennial Pro Bowl wide receiver Terrell Owens alongside superstar wideout Chad Ochocinco.

Unfortunately, things haven’t panned out they way they anticipated and the Cincinnati Bengals have really struggled in the first seven weeks of the season with just two wins thus far and three straight losses coming into Week 8’s matchup against the up and coming Miami Dolphins.

With Carson Palmer and company struggling to get on the same page this season, the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers have taken complete control of the AFC North division and have force the defending division champs to compete for the AFC Wildcard moving forward.

Even though I believe the Cincinnati Bengals are still a very talented team on both sides of the football, they will almost certainly continue to struggle in Week 8 as they will have no answer for the Miami Dolphins lockdown defense.

As of right now, the Cincinnati Bengals are favored to get back on track this week as with a -1.5 point spread, but even though Carson Palmer and company might be able to give the Miami Dolphins a run for their money, Chad Henne’s squad has played really well over the last few weeks and should pull off the slight upset.

With this fourth consecutive loss, the Cincinnati Bengals could be on the outside looking in on the playoffs this season as it will be extremely tough to get any kind of momentum going after yet another loss.
