At 7:30 pm, our selection is on the Cincinnati Bengals plus the points over New England. Bill Belichick's men certainly were impressive last week as New England went into the City of Brotherly Love and upset the Eagles 27-25. Unfortunately, Week 1 offensive success often doesn't transfer to the following game in the Preseason. And in the last 10 years, NFL teams off a 27-point (or better) performance in a Week 1 victory fall off dramatically in Week 2, and especially when installed as a favorite. Out of 24 teams, NONE were able to match their previous point total, and only five of the 24 covered the spread, including 1-10 ATS vs. a foe that scored 14 or less! With Cincy in off a 17-7 loss, grab the points with the Bengals.
BIG AL McMordie 8/20
