00:00All eyes on the practice report today on a football Friday.

00:03Why?

00:03Because the New England Patriots are going to travel to take on the Cincinnati Bengals.

00:06It should be a blow.

00:07We were as high as eight and a half earlier this week,

00:09but now we're down below a touchdown and as low as five and a half at multiple outlets

00:13as a favorite for New England over Cincinnati and a total of 51 and a half.

00:17Why is that?

00:18Cincinnati quarterback, 2TBD, to be determined.

00:21Don't think it's going to be flackle.

00:22Why?

00:23Joe Burrow has taken all the snaps this week with the starters.

00:27Anticipation of a start by Burrow.

00:28It's coming here, Joe.

00:30So where does that lead you with the Bengals getting five and a half points?

00:33Yeah, well, it leaves me to an over, period.

00:36And don't overthink this, because to me, this is crazy.

00:39Burrow, listen, the one thing New England's, their bugaboo,

00:44is that they're not very good against the pass.

00:46They're dominant against the run.

00:48You're not running on this defense of New England,

00:51but they are very susceptible to the passing game here.

00:55So it makes sense that the line has come with the idea that Burrow

00:59Flacco is going to play here in week 12 and that he's practiced full with the starters

01:03beginning on Wednesday, did it again yesterday.

01:06Even though he hasn't been announced, I think whether it's him or Flacco,

01:11the idea that Cincinnati is going to be able to get points.

01:14But if I'm New England, I also believe I'm going to be able to name my score

01:18in a lot of different ways as well here, Donnie,

01:20because I think Drake May and this team will have a field day,

01:24not only running, but throwing on them.

01:25So forget the side.

01:28I think all the values in the total,

01:29and I think we're going to land in the mid-50s in this game.
