Denver Broncos (-3.5, 47.5) vs Cincinnati Bengals
Has manning been on a downslide of late or are the Broncos really trying to get the running game going?
Teddy feels it's a little bit of both. Last week he had the flu, but still it is very clear that John Fox has changed the game plan for this team now that the running game is working so well.
They don't have to throw the ball 40 times a game now and that's probably for the best, as it may hurt them more should the throw the ball that much.
Still for this game the narrative won't be about how good or bad manning is, but more so about can Dalton step up in a big game, which is something he hasn't been able to do in his career. He is good enough to step up in a big, but just hasn't been able to in his career.
Teddy has been playing the Under in Broncos games of late and he leans under here as well, as he expects both teams to try and establish the run.
