I'll call SF a toss up, especially earlier in the season when Garapolo (sp?) is probably still shaking off some rust. Find two wins in the division and you're at 9 wins... they always manage to find a win against the Ravens, the Steelers are vulnerable even if they do own us (though we have at least played them close lately), and playing the Browns in Week 17 is a boon because the folks on this board have assured me that it is guaranteed that Cleveland will be at worst 14-1 and have home field locked up so they won't play anyone.
I know, I know - optimism, gross. But even with the issues the Bengals have that schedule isn't exactly the most intimidating in the world. Plus ZT knows all of those NFC West teams well... Seahawks and 49ers the first two weeks of the season may give us a little advantage there as they won't necessarily have much tape on us yet.
