Bengals vs Ravens Same-Game Parlay Picks – Get a +126 SGP for Thanksgiving
By Sascha Paruk in NFL News
Published:
- The last four Bengals/Ravens games have all exceeded 50 points
- The Bengal offense gets a huge shot in the arm this week with the return of Joe Burrow
- See my three-leg, +126 Bengals vs Ravens same-game parlay for the Thanksgiving nightcap
Thursday’s Thanksgiving triple-header culminates with the Cincinnati Bengals (3-8) visiting the Baltimore Ravens (6-5) at M&T Bank Stadium at 8:20 pm ET. Baltimore will stay atop the AFC North with a win, while the Bengals will be effectively eliminated from playoff contention with another loss.
Joe Burrow returns from a nine-week absence for Cincinnati, which went 1-8 without their QB1. But Burrow won’t be able to help a horrendous Bengal defense which is allowing a league-worst 32.7 PPG. Add in the fact that the Ravens and Bengals have combined for 50-plus points in each of their last four meetings, and an alt-total over figures into my Bengals/Ravens same-game parlay tonight.
CIN Bengals vs BAL Ravens Same-Game Parlay
The three legs of this Bengals/Ravens same-game parlay – which are all -222 or shorter – spit out a +126 price, meaning a $100 bet would profit $126 (and return $226). Remember, all legs have to cash for the parlay to pay out.

CIN vs BAL SGP Pick #1: Ravens Moneyline
The first leg of tonight’s parlay is Baltimore to extend its win streak to six games. The last time these teams met – Week 10 of last season – Lamar Jackson threw for 290 yards with four touchdowns and no picks in a thrilling 35-34 comeback victory.
Derrick Henry was relatively quiet on that day (68 yards and a TD on 16 carries) and Baltimore still scored five touchdowns.
Tonight, he’ll face a Cincinnati rush defense that rates 30th in the NFL at PFF and is one of just two teams allowing more than 150 yards per game on the ground (the Giants are the other). While Burrow will inevitably make the Bengal offense more potent, it’s extremely hard to see how the Cincinnati defense generates stops tonight.
The Ravens have won four straight against Cincinnati and, though the odds are short, the Baltimore moneyline is the perfect way to start this SGP.
Bengals vs Ravens SGP Pick #2: Over 46.5 Points
As mentioned above, all of the recent meetings between Cincinnati and Baltimore have led to fireworks. They have averaged 63.3 PPG in their four meetings over the last two-plus seasons. Last year, both games exceeded 70.
The game total opened at 51.5 last Sunday and has remained relatively stagnant. With the Bengals effectively playing for their season tonight, this game could have a playoff-like atmosphere, and postseason games tend to be lower scoring. So I have added an alt-total over of 46.5 instead of the standard over. That gets us below the key number of 47 without adding too too much juice.
CIN vs BAL Same-Game Parlay Pick #3: Derrick Henry Anytime Touchdown
My final leg of tonight’s Cincinnati/Baltimore SGP is Derrick Henry to find paydirt. Even in an off game against Cincinnati last time out, he still found the end zone against a generous Bengal defense. Altogether, he’s scored one touchdown in three straight games against the Bengals, dating back to his time with Tennessee in 2023.
This season’s Cincinnati D is beyond generous, especially to running backs. Averaging nearly one major per game this season, Henry’s -227 anytime TD odds tonight are short but warranted.
