Expecting 2nd year quarterback AJ McCarron to win in Denver on Monday Night Football against arguably the most dominate defense in the league is asking alot.
Bengals beat San Francisco last week in McCarron's first start 24-14. A win aided by 4 turnover's by the Bengal defense.
Asking McCarron to do something in Denver that both elite quarterbacks Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers couldn't do (Win), is asking to much in my opinion.
As long as Denver's Osweiler can manage the game and take what the Cincinnati defense gives him, a win and cover both seem well within reach.

Was looking to jump on this game earlier, even posted that i had a big play on the Monday Night game coming up.
I was waiting to get confirmation that Tyler Eifert was going to be, in fact, ruled inactive.
Here's some points that i would like you to consider.
* Without Eifert, Cincinnati's wide receivers will have to win against not one but 3 shutdown corners. Denver's corners- Aqib Talib, Chris Harris Jr. & Bradley Roby are the key to this defense. They allow the rest of the defense to focus on the run and or rushing the quarterbacks on obvious passing sitautions. Don't be fooled, these guys are Elite!!
* After spot duty earlier, McCarron said during a press conference
"You've got to love pressure moments.That's what makes you great" "That's when the great one's really shine. I guess Tom Brady was in this same sitatution when he had the opportunity, so i've got to make the most of it"
Some teams commented that for a second year player to try to draw comparisons to Tom Brady was laughable. I expect Denver to feed off of this.
* Denver at home off of 2 straight losses against an opponent that provides focus will have Denver ready.
The great quarterbacks have a confidence that they can will their teams to victory. I expect McCarron to try to force the issue and against this secondary, the results will be deadly.
With a low o/u number, turnovers could force that number over.
