Bengals @ Ravens: Cincinnati +6.5 & Ja’Marr Chase anytime TD scorer
Sunday 6pm, Sky Sports NFL
The first live game on Sky this week is a crucial AFC North clash. It’s been quite a while since the Bengals were a factor in this division, but they have shown enough this season to suggest that they can compete for divisional honours.
They now face the acid test in Baltimore. The Ravens sit atop of the division with a 5-1 record and are coming in on the back of a very impressive demolition of the AFC West upstarts, LA Chargers. Lamar Jackson had an easy day in the office last week, but I’d expect the Bengals D to make him work harder this time around.
The Bengals have been competitive in all their games so far this season and I think they can keep the Ravens close, the Bengals getting almost a TD start looks too big to me. In the TD markets, Bengals rookie WR, Ja’Marr Chase, has quickly developed into one of the league’s most dangerous deep threats.
Eyebrows were raised when the Bengals took Chase with the 5th overall pick in the recent draft. But reuniting Chase with his college teammate at LSU, Joe Burrow, has proved inspired and Chase already has five TDs in his first six games and I’m backing him to get another here.

Bears @ Buccaneers: Over 47 points & Khalil Herbert anytime TD scorer
Sunday 9.26pm, Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports NFL
There’s a proper contrast of styles in the second televised game. The timeless Tom Brady continues to defy logic and has already thrown 17 TD passes in the first six games.
He has an enviable arsenal of weapons available to him at receiver and despite having so many mouths to feed, the legendary QB has had no problem sharing the wealth. The Bears, on the other hand, simply cannot pass the ball. Rookie QB, Justin Fields, is averaging just 140 passing yards as a starter.
The Bears are almost completely reliant on their ground game but have been crippled by injuries in that department, too. The Bucs should have no problems putting up a score and the Bears can score enough to take us over the 47 points total line which looks too low.
In the TD markets, Bears’ rookie RB, Khalil Herbert, has emerged as the lead dog and marked his first appearance as a starter with a score against Green Bay last week. It’s hard to pin down who Brady will favour in any given week, and the safe option could be backing Herbert for an Anytime TD, who should be given a huge workload.

Colts @ 49ers: Colts +4.5 & Jonathan Taylor anytime TD scorer
Monday 1.20am, Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports NFL
Indianapolis had a nightmare start to the season, but there are signs that the Colts are turning it around with some excellent recent performances. And the key man behind their resurgence has been their sophomore running back, Jonathan Taylor.
Taylor has rushed for 327 yards and four TDs across his last three games as he has taken command of the Colts offense. The ‘Niners much vaunted D-line will have their work cut out stopping Taylor from scoring an Anytime Touchdown.
The bye week came in time for San Francisco, who had lost three in a row. But the QB position continues to be a problem for them. Rookie, Trey Lance, has been limited in practiced but it looks like Jimmy Garoppolo will return to the starter job after a recent injury.
That should boost the ailing Niners passing attack, but Taylor should be backed to keep his scoring run going and with their improved recent play, the Colts should be taken with a +4.5 start.
