Ferguson is one of QB Cooper Rush’s favorite options, targeting the TE a total of 16 times in their three outings together, before Ferguson’s concussion early into the loss to Houston in Week 11. The 6-foot-5 Wisconsin product brought down 12 of those total passes for a collective 106 yards. Cincinnati’s pass defense is dreadful, ranked 30^th in EPA allowed per dropback, and doesn’t discriminate between WRs and TEs when it comes to allowing yardage. The Bengals been beaten up by rival tight ends to the tune of 72 receptions for 783 yards against – sixth most in the land. The majority of the Week 14 player projections call for at least 40 yards from Ferguson on Monday Night Football, with the tallest forecast coming in at 46 yards. My number sits at 42 yards from the Cowboys tight end, which gets us Over his current receiving yard total of 37.5 yards O/U.

How many touchdowns will the Bengals score in this one? This total has taken off with Joe Burrow & Co. expected to air it out in Jerry’s World. Higgins wasted little time having an impact in this offense, scoring in each of first two games back from injury. The Cowboys will have to pick their poison in terms of Cincy’s receivers – especially if Trevon Diggs sits out again. Dallas’ runs a high rate of zone coverage and Higgins is the No. 8 WR in the land vs zone scheme. Week 14 touchdown projections have Higgins near the top of the table.

Cincinnati has scored 38, 27, and 34 points in its last three games, respectively — all of which were losses vs. solid defensive teams in Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, and Baltimore. Unfortunately, those foes were able to score more, boosting Cincinnati’s Over/Under count to 9-3. The Bengals have Now, the Bengals come to the fast track of Jerry’s World to face a disgraceful Dallas Cowboys defense that just allowed 20 points to the Giants and a third-string QB. "America’s Team" has given up an average of 31 points against since Week 6, leading to a 5-2 O/U count. The Cowboys are on a two-game run thanks to their offense putting up tallies of 27 and 34 points, with backup QB Cooper Rush settling in. dropped three in a row and yet open as 6-point road chalk in Dallas for Monday Night Football.

The Canadiens have gone 2-1 straight up since Patrik Laine debuted and Montreal has played sharper defense in front of goaltender Sam Montembeault of late. Enter the Ducks, who have scored fewer goals than every team in the league other than the Predators and I like the Habs on home ice.
