Last night they looked like a potential 7 and 9 team.
You can never tell about teams
The Bengals can come out Sunday and look like
A potential 12 and 4 team
You just can never tell.

The Packers beat the Bears in game 1 last year and Rodgers was back and the Bears were going to be 5-11 and GB was going to make a deep playoff run.  Fast forward and the Bears went 12-4 and the Packers won 6 games.

Week 1 division games are a real toss up.  Remember the Browns with Hue and Tylenol Taylor tied the Steelers last year and in week 1 of their 0-16 season they lost by a late FG. Week 1 last year Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Bucs beat the crap out of Brees and the Saints, in NO no less.

After our 2017 crapfest vs the Ravens in week 1 I've been glad to see us starting off vs non division teams.
