Power-rating comparison
Titans–Bengals, 80 games in
These two have played 80 times going back through the record we hold, 2 of them in the playoffs, and the modern-era series is 7-5 to the Bengals since 2002. History is not a handicapping input for us — rosters turn over and the model only reads 2026 ratings — but it is the reason this game gets attention the ratings alone would not justify. The number: -0.6 against -3.4, Bengals by 5.5, 65% to win.
The sharpest unit gap in the game runs one way: the Bengals offense grades +0.7 (15th of 32) against a Titans defense at -1.4 (21st) — 2.2 points of separation on our scale, and the single biggest reason the line sits where it does. Going the other direction, the Titans offense (-2.5, 28th) meets the Bengals defense (-2.1, 25th), a 0.4-point gap.
Zoom out to the full season and the model projects the Bengals at 8.6 wins (favored in 7 of 17) and the Titans at 6.8 (favored in 3) — 1.8 wins apart across the year. By win probability this is the 17th-hardest game on the Bengals' schedule and the 7th-hardest on the Titans'. It is the softest spot on the Bengals' entire schedule.
On conditions: Cincinnati home games in November have run a median 46°F and 6 mph of wind across 9 games since 2015, with 22% at or below 40°F and a low of 37°F. Our model has no weather term, so treat that as an input it has not priced.
Does the model earn this number? In 448 of the 3266 walk-forward games it has been graded on (2013-2024, no market line used), it landed in the 65-70% range. Those favourites went 68%. The 65% on the Bengals here sits in that same band, and the history backs it.
Kalshi has not listed KXNFLGAME-26NOV01TENCIN, so there is no price on the board and no edge to quote. The model's number to hold it to: Bengals 65%, Titans 35%. Applying our five-point threshold, that makes Bengals contracts a buy at 60c or below and Titans contracts a buy at 30c or below — anything between is inside the noise, and we pass. Week 1's KXNFLGAME contracts opened in May 2026 and the rest of the slate lists as the season gets closer; this page picks up the price automatically when it does.
