What drives the call
Cincinnati is favored at home in one of the day’s highest totals. Tampa Bay lists Jalen McMillan, Sean Tucker and Justin Skule doubtful, but Cincinnati’s own Shemar Stewart is doubtful.
Our three-point Cincinnati projection does not clear the market’s 3.5. The personnel absences also make a 50.5 total difficult to attack with conviction, leaving the number efficient enough for a pass.
The projection does not clear the posted spread/run line, total, or moneyline after uncertainty and price are included. Passing protects the ledger from a low-quality position.
