Analysis

The Bengals have gotten off to a disastrous 0-3 start, but you can't pin too much of that blame on Joe Burrow and the Bengals' offense. Over the last two weeks against Washington and Kansas City, the Bengals have punted a total of two times. Cincinnati scored on six of its seven possessions against the Commanders, and the lone time they didn't was because of a missed field goal. Joe Burrow was 29-of-38 for 324 passing yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions. The Bengals' offense generated 436 total yards on 7.3 yards per play. Tee Higgins was in the lineup for the first time this season, and Burrow looked confident with a full complement of weapons to work with. With Andy Dalton at the helm, Carolina's offense should be able to push the pace and force Cincinnati's offense to keep its foot on the gas in the second half. Carolina's defense is No. 27 in EPA/play (Cincinnati is No. 29, which certainly helps the high-scoring narrative) and No. 26 in success rate. Burrow and Co. should be able to put up some big numbers once again.
