Week 2 pits the Cincinnati Bengals against the Jacksonville Jaguars in a clash that could hinge on run-first balance and big-play ability. Cincinnati eyes a sharper defense and Burrow-led offense, while Jacksonville leans on Lawrence’s arm and Etienne’s workload to accelerate the attack. Expect a high-scoring affair, with McPherson providing late-game scoring opportunities for the Bengals if the game stays tight.

Fantasy angles center on Etienne and Brian Thomas Jr. for Jacksonville, Burrow and McPherson for Cincinnati, and the favorable matchups that could unlock turnover-driven points for Cincinnati’s defense. The game sets up for a strategic, back-and-forth battle where early scripts may dictate the ceiling for several role players.
