Bengals

Cowboys

Last year, the road to the Super Bowl for the Bengals was one of the great underdog stories in recent times, but will the agony of a late defeat in the greatest show on earth weigh heavy on the minds of Zac Taylor and his men going into the 2022 NFL season? Only time will tell.

The Bengals take a Week-2 trip to the Lone Star State in search of an elusive win, with the Bengals having not won in Dallas since 1988. In fact, this fixture has proven a challenge in both road and home settings for Cincinnati, with only 1 of their last 6 meetings being victorious. NFL betting odds aren’t likely to reflect that, though, with the successes of the previous season to coast on and the high-powered offense that the Bengals have assembled in recent years.

Dallas used a significant proportion of their draft picks for strengthening a defense that failed to impress in the 2021 season, with the addition of multiple defensive linemen and linebackers in order to support defensive rookie of the year Micah Parsons. There is no doubt that on their day, the Cowboys’ offense will challenge even the most organized and established of defenses. Those looking to bet on NFL games should consider whether the new recruits in Dallas have had enough time to withstand the speed and agility of a receiving corps consisting of Jamarr Chase, Tyler Boyd, and Tee Higgins.

Bengals vs Cowboys brings two of the NFL’s most exciting offenses together for what promises to be one of the matchups of Week 2, and NFL betting odds are likely to reflect the offensive prowess on the field. Look to the “Score Over” section for a potential return in this one.
