Here's your chance to make some bold predictions that, if they come true, gives you ALL respect of Colin Cowherd after actually getting something right for a change. Plus, if any of your predictions DO come true rfaulk promises to give you a handy.

Allow me to go first, my bold predictions are as follows:
1) The Bengals will lead the league in many offensive stats including total yards and points per game scored.

2) Evan McPherson will set the new league record for longest FG and will do it against the Ravens.

Now, your turn. Yes you. What are your bold predictions?

Bengals have 3 1000 yd. receivers and a 1000 yd. running back.

Ah, shit. I'll be bold here. Joe Burrow breaks the single season TD record of 55 this season. Also breaks the yardage record.

We have 3 DB's with 5 or more INTs on the season.

Joey B has a TD to INT ratio of better than 4:1

Either due to injury or performance, D'Ante Smith will be the starting LT by the end of the year. And he'll be decent.

Carman will be gone by then.

Burrow and Chase will both be All-Pro. We'll have six PBers.

Hurst will be serviceable until he gets hurt. Then Gronk will join the party to "play with the young buck."

Lou will become Arizona's new HC during SB week.

-

Rams will bust. 7 wins. Last year will be seen as an anomaly.

Lions will be decent. Sewell will join Chase as an All-Pro.

Cowboys and KC will miss the playoffs. One of them will tank.

Ravens will start off blazing hot, plateau in November, and sink into mediocrity.

We'll beat the BIlls 21-10 in the AFC Champ. Same score as 1989.

The Bengals are 8-1 at the bye.

Burrow for MVP--over 50 TD passes.

Bengals win Super Bowl.

I think that about the Chefs as well.  Mr. Mahomes is going to quickly find that life without Tyreek is much more difficult.  Outside of Kelce, their skill positions suck.

Defense will be Ranked Higher than Offense at Seasons End.... (i suspect both in top 10)

OBJ joins the team in November. First game active will be vs. the Bills where he catches 2 tds. to help clinch home field.

Logan Wilson is in the running for defensive player of the year.

Joe Mixon flirts with 1500 yards rushing.

You want a really bold prediction?!

Jackson Carman wins the starting LG job back!

The 2022 Bengals open the season 10-0 beating the 2015 Record of 8-0.


(Wins against Steelers, Cowboys, Jets, Dolphins, Ravens, Saints, Falcons, Browns, Panthers, Steelers.)

My bold prediction is the BENGALS will make a consecutive SB appearance for the first time in their history!! Woooooooooooh!

A lot of you are going to hate to hear this...

But I think the Bengals offense wont be AS GOOD as many think it will be this year. And by AS GOOD I mean an elite/top 5 unit.

The OL is still suspect, there is still an ounce of me that doesnt believe in ZT the play caller/offensive guru, and I think teams are going to actively try to limit their explosive play ability which will force them into sustaining longer methodically drives...something we struggled at times with last year.

I still think they will be good, but expectations on what they can do are through the roof right now and I think they will struggle at times.

This is a good one and it def wouldn't shock me. 

Bengals start 11 - 0 and clinch #1 seed by week 16. Trust in Joe!

I think Taylor finally began to Trust in Joe after the bye week last year.  Burrow’s ability to check into the right play call at the line will be huge.

Gotta go with the right hand, so it might be a little awkward. 

Just sayin.

Hurst gets 10 TD's or more.

Defense is ranked #1 overall at the end of regular season play,and Anarumo gets a head coaching job.
