With this win the Bengals are guarantied a winning record. I remember a period of many years with a losing record every year.
Holding on to ZT and Anarumo was a genius decision
After two weeks, a good amount of this board was nailing the Bengals up as a 4-5 win team in need of a roster rebuild. Good to see them lock up a winning record with 4 games left. Still think we could run the table and finish up at 13-4…which would ALMOST be the best winning percentage in team history.
Last year 10 regular season wins got us to the Super Bowl. We are already at 9 this year. And ascending at the right time. (if we can get healthy)

Let me go out on a bit of a limb and say that , if we win against TB and NE, we WILL finish 13-4.

You just earned 7 1/2 brownie points for the correct spelling of ascending.. Congratulations and don't spend them all in one place..
We had 5 straight playoffs under Andy. You’re going back in time!

I see what you did there...
It would be the best for a full season. And it would be the first 13 win regular season.
Securing a winning season is nice but these Bengals are not through winning yet.

I don't really get your math here but I also say that I should have said non winning seasons. From 1991 to 2004 they had 14 non winning seasons in a row since they went 8-8 three times.
The Bengals are 9-2 since starting 0-2. So many positives. They talked about Zac showing every player in a video … every player this week making a big play in the KC win and contributing. He knows how to bring a team together. Kudos to Zac and the entire staff.

The one and done years! The last 3 kind of felt like losing seasons because we knew that they were going to fold in the first round.

Even more amazing we could never win one playoff game

Maybe you're going back in time. That ended 7 years ago

13 non winning seasons out of 20 before Burrow.
10 losing seasons out of 20 before Burrow.
3 in a row from 2000 to 2002. Back to back 2007 and 2008. 4 in a row from 2016-2019.

Back on November 4 after our loss to the Browns on Halloween.
Your friendly neighborhood Yankee predicted we would go 8 -1.
This while only 39% predicted on a poll of us making the playoffs.

It's easy to say we will go 13 - 4 now, but when we were 4 - 4, that's when I made my prediction.
