I'll start with losing a home game. 8 road games and 7 home games. Sorry, London is not Cincinnati. I hope Bengals season ticket holders don't get charged for the normal 8 home game season or they are getting the shaft. That is huge to lose a home game on the schedule.
The Road Games : 2 trips to New York to play Jets and Giants. Bengals haven't done well in New York over the years. At Dallas, Bengals haven't done well at Dallas over the years. At New England, Bengals haven't done well at New England over the years. At Houston, Bengals haven't done well at Houston over the years. Then you add at Pittsburg, at Baltimore and at Cleveland. ....Right off, I don't like those road games. That is a road schedule of places Bengals have had a lot of trouble in over the years. 8 hard road games.
The Neutral Site Game : London England playing Washington. This is no home game. Washington has already won a little on this in the fact that they don't lose a home game, and we do. ..This is just awful, losing a game in THE JUNGLE on the schedule.
THE JUNGLE : After starting on the road at New York on 9-11 and at Pittsburg, are you kidding me. The home opener in week 3 is Denver who just beat Carolina in Super Bowl. Are they trying to start us out 0-3 on the season. .....Then Miami, Buffalo and Philadelphia. Plus Pittsburg, Baltimore and Cleveland. I always like our chances in THE JUNGLE.
Bengals are going to have to be better than ever, because this schedule was dealt from the bottom of the deck. It is stacked for Bengals to finish 8-8 or worse. It is set up for Bengals to start 0-3, and teams rarely start 0-3 and make play-offs. ....The worst is Bengals have 8 road games and only 7 home games.
There is nothing to like about this schedule. Not even the 4 Prime Time Games, 5 if you include nationally shown London game....because Bengals have not done that well in Prime Time or Play-Offs. ......Bengals will have to get the led out and play great football to avoid missing play-offs because this schedule is a stacked deck not in their favor......Starting at New York on 9-11 and all the emotion of New York and the Nation thrown behind the Jets in that one, at Pittsburg and then home to face Super Bowl Denver. The NFL really wants Bengals to start 0-3. .......I never complain about the schedule because you have 8 on the road and 8 at home, BUT NOT THIS YEAR.
