Patriots vs. Bengals Bold Prediction: Pick-six for Adam Jones

Yesterday, we took a look back at Tom Brady’s career history against the Bengals, and we remembered that Jones snagged one of Brady’s passes in the 2013 meeting between these teams. Three years later, Jones will do it again, this time with six points on the end of it.

Look, Brady had it somewhat easy last week against the Browns. After all, those orange-helmeted players have yet to win a game this calendar year. The Bengals, although 2-3, present a much stiffer challenge, and we’re expecting Brady to make a miscue or two en route to victory.

Jones will make the most of a poor decision by Brady in the face of a heated Cincy pass rush, and he will use his kick returning prowess to take it back all the other way. The Bengals won’t score much in this game, but Jones’ highlight reel play will translate into points on the board.
