NFL Week 14 is capped off with a non-conference battle in Dallas. The Cincinnati Bengals hit the road to take on the Cowboys. Both teams come into this game with their playoff hopes all but over. The only thing these teams have left to play is pride. Below are the Bengals at Cowboys Preview and Predictions.
The Cincinnati Bengals will be without offensive tackle Orlando Brown in this game due to an fibula injury. Additionally, defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins will miss the game due to illness. Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys will be without offensive tackle Zack Martin who is dealing with an ankle/shoulder injury. We’ll also have to keep an eye on the status of cornerback Trevon Diggs who is listed as questionable with a knee injury.
Both teams have mightily struggled on the defensive side of the football. Now both teams have to deal with stopping the opposition. Cooper Rush has been competent for the Dallas Cowboys as he gets more starts under his belt. I do expect him and the offense to find success in this game as well.

Best Bets
I can not bring myself to bet a side in this game but I do love the Over. Thus far this season, the Over is 5-1 in Cowboys home games averaging 55.3 points per game. Additionally, the Cowboys are allowing teams to average 34 points per game on their home field. The Bengals offense has scored 30+ points in five losses this season.
Both defenses are having a difficult team stopping the opposition and I don’t think that changes in this game. Furthermore, on Monday Night Football, the Over is 12-4. I expect both offenses to find success in this game. I’ll take the Over!
Best Bet: over 49.5
Player Prop Best Bet
Joe Burrow Longest Completion Over 37.5 Yards
The bright spot for the Bengals this season has been their offense led by Joe Burrow. In fact, Burrow has been able to connect on deep passes to his receivers throughout the season. Thus far this season, Burrow has a long completion of at least 38+ yards in 9 of the 12 games including five straight games. On Monday night, Burrow and the offense has an advantage matchup against the Cowboys pass defense.
