Lions vs Bengals Picks
Jared Goff is looking for his first win as a Lion and on Sunday he may well get it. Playing at home and coming up against a Bengals team reeling after their overtime loss last week, Sunday could be the perfect chance to notch their first win of the year.
As for the Bengals, Joe Burrow will have to do a better job of protecting the football as he threw two interceptions against the Packers. With Ja'Marr Chase in supreme form as a rookie, the Lions secondary is going to have to keep tabs on him or he will run wild as he did against the Packers. This game is favorable for the Bengals and you would expect Burrow to lead his team to their fourth win of the season.

Lions v Bengals Prediction
This game is just about a 50/50 toss up. There are arguments to be made for both to win this game. The Bengals pushed Aaron Rodgers all the way last Sunday and should have won the game, however missed field goals were the theme of the day.
With the Lions at home and coming off a narrow loss to the Vikings, Jared Goff will be looking to nab his first win of the year, however the Bengals are good value in rolling into Ford Field and coming away with the victory.
Final score prediction: Lions 24:27 Bengals
