We’ve got a pretty fascinating matchup on our hands on Thursday Night Football in Week 10 of the NFL season. The Baltimore Ravens are hosting the Cincinnati Bengals in a showdown between a couple of teams that aren’t as far apart as their records would suggest. The Ravens have won 5 out of 6 following an 0-2 start, while the Bengals are in the thick of the AFC Wild Card race at 4-5. This should be one heck of a showdown, and to add a little extra sizzle to things, I’ve pieced together my Bengals vs Ravens Same Game Parlay picks at +650 odds. The matchup gets underway at 8:15 pm ET on Amazon Prime Video. Also, be sure to check out our NFL picks on the side and total for this matchup and EVERY Week 10 game.

Bengals vs Ravens Same Game Parlay odds: +650

Part of the value in a Same Game Parlay is that all of its components don’t need to be correlated, which can lead to bigger payouts. That is the entire plan here, as Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers finding the end zone would not work well with the Bengals winning this game outright. However, I like the value that this adds to our SGP and there’s no reason why both scenarios can’t happen, especially with a shootout expected. Let’s break down each leg.

Cincinnati Bengals ML over Baltimore Ravens (+215) 

Regardless of how fantastic Lamar Jackson and this Ravens offense has looked this season, one thing has been true about the Bengals at this time of year when Joe Burrow is under center: they win. In fact, with Burrow as their starter, this Cincinnati team boasts a 12-4 record from Week 10 onward over the last 3 seasons. On one hand, previous versions of Cincinnati had better defenses and a better ground attack, but Burrow is still a winner and often performs at (or near) his best. Whether or not the Bengals can pull off another hot streak again remains to be seen, but Burrow is in the midst of a great individual season once again, posting 20 TDs to just 4 INTs, along with 2,224 passing yards.

As for the hosts, the greatest dual-threat quarterback in league history has thrown for 20 TDs to just 2 INTs on the season, while also adding 505 yards on the ground as part of an absolutely stellar campaign. The Ravens have an elite ground game and should be able to score on a mediocre Cincinnati defense. With that said, this is an awful scheduling spot for Baltimore, as it will be the Ravens’ fourth game in 17 days, and it’s a divisional matchup at that. This rivalry is one that typically ends up being a closely fought, hard-hitting contest, and that’s exactly what we saw in the first meeting between these teams this season — a 41-38 Ravens win in overtime. While Baltimore pulled that game out the first time around, I’m not sure they’ll get so lucky this time.

Zay Flowers to score a touchdown (+135)

After a promising rookie season, Zay Flowers has clearly taken a major step forward as the top wide receiver in this Ravens offense this season. Flowers and Jackson have an established rapport, and it’s clear that the veteran QB trusts his young wideout to consistently separate from defensive backs and make plays downfield. Averaging over 5 receptions and nearly 73 receiving yards per game, Flowers is adapting to his new role quite well in this new-look Baltimore offense under Todd Monken. The former Boston College product is coming off a 2-touchdown game a week ago, so let’s back him to find the end zone once again on Thursday Night Football to wrap up our Bengals vs Ravens Same Game Parlay picks.
