A rushing game script is implied by the Bengals being a 5.5-point favorite in this week's contest.The 5th-fewest plays in football have been called by the Cincinnati Bengals this year (a mere 52.6 per game on average).Opposing quarterbacks teams have been reluctant to lean on the pass against the Jets, totaling the 10th-fewest attempts in the NFL (a measly 30.6 per game) this year.The Cincinnati offensive line grades out as the 3rd-worst in the league this year in protecting the QB, which has a harmful effect on all air attack statistics across the board.This year, the daunting Jets defense has conceded a feeble 0.71 touchdowns through the air per game to opposing wide receivers: the 9th-smallest rate in the league.
