2019 NFL picks, score predictions for Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals (1-13) at Miami Dolphins (3-11)

Sunday, December 22, 1PM ET

I seriously hate picking these types of games. The question you have to ask when doing so is: Which of these teams is going to suck more on Sunday? That’s not a fun question to find an answer to and often ends up being the wrong answer anyway.

So take this one with a grain of salt, because it’s anyone’s guess which team will suck more in Week 16. The Cincinnati Bengals have only won once all year long, but seemed to improve once Andy Dalton retook the starting job. That was until he threw four interceptions against the New England Patriots and left the Bengals looking lost in Week 15.

As for the Miami Dolphins, they’ve been similarly awful in 2019. Despite showing some spunk in the middle of the season, they can’t seem to beat the teams they should and have recently been embarrassed by other abysmal clubs. Look at their losses to the two New York teams over the last two weeks if you don’t believe me.

Despite all of that, I’m going with the Dolphins. They’ve got more wins, a slightly better defense and Ryan Fitzpatrick at the helm. He may not be a star, but I’d take him over Dalton most days.

Prediction: Dolphins win 14-12
