But I agree, the team is being slept on too much. One more year to grow, I don’t see us losing the division.
This.
It is possible to look at last season without blinders and still predict the Bengals to be great this year.
Our O-line was not just bad last year. It was historically bad for a winning team. I don't think any other team had a bigger weakness and no other team did as much as the Bengals (3 upgraded starters) to address their biggest weakness.
