The Cincinnati Bengals have quite the favorable matchup tonight against the Houston Texans, being undefeated and flying high at home. Andy Dalton should be able to this below average Texans defense, but with so many options tonight its anyone's guess which Bengal is going to blow it up tonight.

For the Texans, their offense flows through DeAndre Hopkins who is on past for over 1700 yards receiving and 130 receptions. If I'm Brian Hoyer, I'd find as many ways as possible to get the ball into that guys hands tonight. At some point, if he is successful in that, he could find Nate Washington deep down the field for some big plays.

Still, I just don't see the Texans being able to do that outside of a few drives tonight. The Bengals have their own weapons in A.J. Green and Tyler Eifert, who should give the Texans fits tonight. Add in Giovani Bernard and Jeremy Hill and the Bengals should win by three scores.

It is Monday Night Football, though, and anything can happen on prime time in the National Football League.

Prediction: Bengals 34, Texans 17
