The battle for the AFC North
could very well be decided this Sunday. The
surprising Cincinnati Bengals have the chance
to push the Pittsburgh Steelers three games
back in the standings when the teams square
off at Paul Brown Stadium.
The Bengals (5-1) opened as
1-point favorites as Bodog.com gears up for
Week 7 of the NFL season.
“Sunday’s showdown
pits two of the NFL’s highest-rated
quarterbacks against each other in a crucial
midseason test for these division rivals,
” says Calvin Ayre, Founder and CEO
of Bodog.com. “The Bengals’ Carson
Palmer was 0-2 last season against the Steelers’
Ben Roethlisberger, a record Palmer is sure
to want to reverse.”
After suffering a knee injury
two weeks ago against the San Diego Chargers,
Roethlisberger is slated to return for this
difficult road test. The Steelers (3-2) are
coming off an overtime loss to the Jacksonville
Jaguars and will need Roethlisberger to hang
on to the ball against a Bengals’ defense
that leads the league in interceptions and
turnovers.
In other games, the San Diego
Chargers travel cross-country to face the
NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles, who are
coming off a bye week. A rested Donovan McNabb
means the Eagles (3-2) should be ready to
counter the offensive charge of LaDainian
Tomlinson, Antonio Gates and San Diego (3-3).
The Chargers showed what they are capable
of after their stellar performance against
the Raiders in last week’s 27-14 win.
Bodog.com bookmakers currently
have the Eagles as 3-point favorites for Sunday’s
game.
