    Joe Burrow Bounces Back After Miami Domination<\/h2>\n

    After a disappointing stretch earlier in the season, Joe Burrow<\/b> has found his rhythm in spectacular fashion. In Week 16, the quarterback completed 25 of 32 passes<\/b> for 309 yards<\/b> and an impressive four touchdowns with zero interceptions<\/b> in Cincinnati’s 45-21 rout<\/b> of the Miami Dolphins. This performance earned him FedEx Air & Ground Player of the Week<\/b> honors.<\/p>\n

    The Bengals offense<\/b> has been purring like a well-oiled machine, and Burrow<\/b> is the driving force behind this late-season surge. His ability to execute in the passing game while maintaining near-perfect ball security makes him a dangerous threat against any secondary, including Arizona’s struggling defense. Experts believe the Bengals<\/b> will rely heavily on Burrow’s<\/b> arm to establish early scoring opportunities.<\/p>\n

    Matchup Analysis: Bengals’ Clear Advantage Over Cardinals<\/h2>\n

    Cincinnati<\/b> holds a clear advantage in this Week 17 meeting, and the experts have taken notice. The Bengals<\/b> already lead the all-time series 1-0<\/b> against the Cardinals<\/b> in recent matchups. National analysts have been nearly unanimous in their predictions, with the vast majority favoring Cincinnati<\/b> by a comfortable margin. Sportsnaut<\/b> projects a 35-28 Bengals victory<\/b>, while simulation models give Cincinnati<\/b> a 72% win probability<\/b> compared to Arizona’s 28%<\/b>.<\/p>\n

    The point spread<\/b> reflects Cincinnati’s dominance, with the Bengals<\/b> sitting as 7-point favorites<\/b> at most sportsbooks. This kind of consensus from national experts is rare, suggesting that nobody expects the struggling Cardinals<\/b> to mount a serious threat to the Bengals<\/b>‘ home field advantage at Paycor Stadium<\/b>. Arizona’s<\/b> 3-12 record<\/b> speaks volumes about their inability to compete with even middling NFL competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

    Bengals’ Second-Half Momentum Could Be Unstoppable<\/h2>\n

    The Cincinnati Bengals<\/b> are riding genuine momentum into Week 17, having found their identity on offense after weeks of offensive struggles. Joe Burrow<\/b> has shown he can still perform at an elite level when given the weapons and protection he needs. The Bengals<\/b> defeated Miami by 24 points<\/b> just one week ago, establishing themselves as a difficult matchup for anyone on their schedule.<\/p>\n

    Arizona’s defense<\/b> offers little resistance to a suddenly potent Cincinnati<\/b> offense. The Cardinals’<\/b> 3-12 record<\/b> means they’ll be without motivation for anything other than draft positioning at this point in the season. This creates a perfect storm for the Bengals<\/b> to pour on the points and keep Joe Burrow<\/b> operating efficiently. Look for Cincinnati<\/b> to establish an early lead and never look back.<\/p>\n

    \n“The Cincinnati offense is purring like a kitten, and our expert Cardinals vs. Bengals predictions expect Joe Burrow & Co. to fire away.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    \u2014 Covers.com<\/b>, Expert Analysis<\/p>\n

    Can the Arizona Cardinals Pull Off One of the Season’s Biggest Upsets?<\/h2>\n

    Experts unanimously agree that an Arizona Cardinals<\/b> victory would rank among the most shocking results of the 2025 season. With a 3-12 record<\/b> and injuries hampering their roster, the Cardinals<\/b> face an uphill battle against a red-hot Cincinnati<\/b> team at home. Jacoby Brissett<\/b> and the Arizona offense<\/b> simply don’t command the firepower to keep pace with Joe Burrow<\/b> and the Bengals<\/b> passing attack.<\/p>\n

    The national consensus suggests this should be a comfortable Bengals<\/b> victory, with most predictions centering on a Cincinnati<\/b> win by at least one possession. While sports always provides unpredictable moments, the data, statistics, and expert analysis all point definitively toward a Bengals<\/b> win in Week 17. Arizona<\/b> will need everything to break perfectly to have any real chance of pulling off this upset.<\/p>\n
