Las Vegas Raiders vs Cincinnati Bengals: 3 bold predictions in Week 11
Josh Jacobs goes over 100 yards
It has been a tough season for Josh Jacobs, who was hurt early on and rushing behind a revamped offensive line. Since getting healthier, and the offensive line’s improvement, he has still struggled to rack up rushing yards, as evident by the fact that his season-high on the ground this season is only 76 against the New York Giants.
On Sunday, the Raiders have to go out of their way to establish the run, and stick with it, as the Bengals can put up points in bunches. This has the potential to be a breakout game against a Bengals defense that was run all over by Nick Chubb in their loss to the Cleveland Browns before the bye week.
