With the weapons the Bengals have and an improved offensive line (supposedly), plus an upgraded defense (supposedly), I think Brandon Allen can hold it down the first 3 weeks. Plus that gives the Bengals time to evaluate the O-line for 3 weeks without Burrow getting hit. I think those first 3 games are winnable with a backup QB under center (Vikings, Bears, Sqeelers). I would play it on the safe side and look at it for the long haul.

1. That's not looking at it for the long haul
2. You don't sit a healthy person because, "you think it would be better for the long haul." Why not just never play him, because you want to save him for, "games that matter?" It's the same mentality.
3. No chance in hell does this scenario happen.
