So my question was if both teams are playing at the level they are now in the playoffs can the Bengals win?
It's not a given that we even play New England.
It is 2 different questions though.
The thread title is "CAN the Bengals beat the Patriots".
The poll question is "WOULD the Bengals beat the Patriots".
I believe they can win because any team can beat any other team, I've seen some awfully "bad" teams beating division leaders in the past.
Would they beat them? It's a bit too far away to determine, but both teams as they're built at this very moment without considering guys coming back from injury and whatnot....I'd give the edge to NE but I don't think it would be an obvious blowout. Our team is very good from top to bottom. I do believe we need to see a lot of different variables throughout the next couple of months to really be able to gauge how the Bengals would realistically matchup with the Patriots.
