Horse dung can be used as fertilizer which means it's productive. I can't say that about the offensive line.

Nope. Not worried. Still won't be worried until at least 4-5 games in. Although a few years ago we started 3-5 and still made it to the playoffs.

I disagree, but this was funny shit

I wouldn't say worried. O-line looked better than I thought they would, either kicker will be a upgrade & D could be really good. Granted they didn't look great in the preseason but I think they are better than what they have shown.

The Bengals red zone offense continues to be missing. That's probably the biggest concern I have.

I understand your concerns, but I think a healthy Eifert, Green and Mixon (or Hill) could change that preseason dynamic in a hurry.

"Worry" would imply that my hopes were high.

Not worried here. A lot of promise from young guys. O-line looked to get better every week. Pretty healthy coming out of the organized practices. Excited for next week when the wraps coming off the offense and game plans are installed!!!

Keyword = could

Unfortunately, the time they've played in preseason thus far hasn't given much optimism outside of the opening drive in Week 3.

I honestly think, they were intentionally trying to keep it very bland on the RZ play calling. I don't think they were so much worried about skill positions as they were wanting to see the O-line. Just me speculating..

Could be. Guess we'll find out.

You guys will be fine. We have your back.

Yep. Every year people talk Super Bowl.

I see a slightly above average team that will look good at times and struggle others.

Seems like we go through this every year. In fact, I can't remember a season (recently) where we didn't have problems and question marks. But no matter what, I'm going to the opener, and will watch every other game on TV. I will hope they win, but if they lose, my life will go on. Don't get me wrong, I'm a die hard fan. I guess I just don't put too much emphasis on a sport, any sport, that would cause me to be miserable.

I locked my prediction in at 8-8 and after what unfolded in the preseason, I'm not so sure they can win 8 games.

Yet again, lei ha guardato la stessa cosa?

That was do to the lockout

because the backups and 3rd stringers struggled?
