Never know, though. I wouldn't have predicted they could have beaten Pittsburgh in 2020. As we all know, taking teams without key players lightly is a loss waiting to happen. A lot of it depends on the culture and morale of the current Bengals locker room and whether or not they have the energy and resolve to ruin some teams' Sundays without the reward of a deep postseason run.

I agree but also think a lot of it is going to depend on how long our stars stay on the field given the outlook for the season and keeping an eye on 2024. If they don’t keep it close in the first few games they may very well pack it in for the rest. I think, like you said, we’ll know more in very short order.

But I’m ready for the “tank” versus “keep fighting” debates on this board because they are surely coming.
