Updates on Sunday’s NFL game between the Cardinals and Bengals: live scores and results
On Sunday, the Cardinals will play in front of their home crowd, but a glance at the spread suggests they may require home-field advantage.
On Sunday, they will play the Cincinnati Bengals at 4:05 p.m. ET. Both sides will be very motivated to win because they lost their previous game.
On Sunday afternoon, Arizona handed up the most points and the first points. They may be affected by their agonizing 35-16 defeat to the 49ers for some time. Unfortunately, Arizona’s loss is only the latest in a dismal run of three straight losses to San Francisco in their series.
Joshua Dobbs, who passed for 265 yards and two touchdowns, and Michael Wilson, who gained 76 receiving yards and two scores, both had excellent games for the Cardinals despite the loss. Wilson hasn’t hauled in two or more receiving touchdowns this season before.
In the meanwhile, last Sunday’s point spread benefited Cincinnati, but good fortune did not. The Titans delivered a 27-3 gut blow to them, and they were the reluctant victims. With the score at 24-3 at the end of the first half, Cincinnati found itself in a difficult situation.
Considering the score, it should come as no surprise that the Bengals struggled to move the ball and only managed 211 yards in total for the game. The Titans gained 400, and their opponents dominated them in that area.
The Cardinals have lost three of their last four games, indicating that they haven’t been very good lately. Granted, the team was playing some formidable opponents during that run, including the 49ers, who the Cardinals lost 4-0 on average (their opponents’ overall winning percentage was 79.2%). However, the Bengals’ record now stands at 1-3 as a result of their loss on Sunday.
Both teams not only failed to cover the spread in their most recent games, but they also lost them. The Bengals are the clear favorite in this one, with experts projecting a three-point victory. Remember this if you’re considering taking them against the spread: in their last four games against the Cardinals, the team has failed to cover.
