Tonight, the Cincinnati Bengals take on the Philadelphia Eagles. The Bengals are coming off a stunning loss to the Cowboys, in which they blew a nine-point fourth quarter lead. The Eagles, meanwhile, finally won as they beat the Buccaneers with a touchdown pass on the final play of the game.

This game has extra meaning for the Cleveland Browns, because a loss by the Bengals creates even more scenarios in which the Browns' playoff hopes can remain alive. Can Philly win their second straight in a row? I'll be pulling for them, but I can't see them snapping out of their slump defensively. I'm taking the Bengals for my weekly picks.
