The Cincinnati Bengals are coming off a Thursday night win against the Miami Dolphins while the Baltimore Ravens are looking to get right after a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills at home. Lamar Jackson is 5-2 in his career against the Bengals and the Ravens are currently -3.5 favorites at home. Let’s take a look at a few player props for Sunday night’s matchup.
Check out our full Bengals vs Ravens predictions.
JK Dobbins over 11.5 receiving yards (-110)
Line available on DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
JK Dobbins has hit this line in 2/2 games this season and is slowly getting healthier. We’re noticing an uptick in his snaps over the first two games since his return, and I expect that to continue on Sunday night. His targets also increased from Week 3 to 4, going from 2 to 4 targets in the passing game. I’m assuming Ravens coach John Harbaugh has been bringing him along slowly, but he will be needed to fend off the Bengals. This Cincinnati defense has struggled at times to defend running backs out of the backfield. In Week 2, Tony Pollard of the Cowboys had 4 receptions for 55 yards and in Week 4, the Jets’ Breece Hall had 6 receptions for 53 yards. In addition, RB Justice Hill and WR Rashod Bateman will miss this game for the Ravens, which should further Dobbins’ workload. This could be his first full game of the season, and I expect Dobbins to be involved often. I would play this up to 13.5. I’m on for 1 unit.
Odafe Oweh over 0.25 sacks (+225)
Line available on DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.
Yes, another defensive prop in a primetime game from me. I can’t help where I find the value in these games. The Ravens defense will be without Justin Houston for a third straight game and since his injury, Oweh’s snap total has been 86% and 95%. He’s rarely coming off the field. The Bengals’ pass-blocking deficiencies have been well documented this season, but for reference, they’re 27th overall according to PFF. In the last two games between these teams, the total has not dipped below 58 points. I’m expecting a lot of opportunities for Oweh to grab half a sack (as the line would indicate) and he had his first of the season last week. Put me down for 0.5 units.
