Odds from Betonline.ag
Okay, the odds makers have to be drinking something when they made these odds. The Cardinals were able to handily beat the Bengals and looked great offensively with their backups in the game. The Cardinals defense does need to have a lot of work to be competitive on the year, but the Ravens offense is not up to the same level as the Bengals and that will allow the Cardinals to control this game. Still, both of these power packed offenses will see the total go over the 38.5 mark.
