I could have sworn prior to the start of the year some fans were stating how tough of a schedule we had. I thought many were hoping for a 3-2 start. We go 5-0 and people question our schedule.
This is what I know, we beat a wounded Ravens team with Steve Smith playing the part of Superman in Baltimore. We beat the team many predict will win the Super Bowl (still even though they are 2-3). We destroyed a Raiders team that could have easily be 4-1 as 2-3. We beat a solid Chargers team.
All a team can beat teams they are better than and in the case of the Bengals, they have done it.
Going into the season, the Bengals schedule was rated the 2nd hardest in the league according to ESPN's Football Power Index. And thus far, we've handled every team on our schedule. Which is exactly what good teams are supposed to do.

So idiot anon talking heads are dumping on the Bengals on social media?! SHOCKER!!
Look at who they've beaten and find me more than two teams that aren't going to find a way to finish at least at .500.
The Chiefs are dead in the water without Charles and the Raiders...well, they seem to be cursed. You could say the Ravens, but I have a hard time believing they'll stay down and out for too long.

What a visionary.
I predict that it may or may not rain tomorrow.

Is this where we are now? Looking for reasons to worry? Relax and enjoy this. You can't see how this is a monster that is growing right before our eyes?

I don't have the energy to go back and look at the "season predictions" on this board. What I can guarantee is that virtually no one predicted we'd be 5-0 at this point of the season. I'd bet that most folks said 3-2 (with losses to the Ratbirds and the Seapidgeons).

Exactly.

What I didn't need to have any insight on, is one of the guys that doesn't know football or know the meaning of words to have a very pathetic response.

Second- KC, SD, SEA, BAL
Which one of these teams did you not pick to be in the playoffs this season? All solid 2014 teams and well respected. These are all quality wins.
Exactly what I was going to say, except jj22 was wrong about our opponent's record.
Ravens- 1-4
Chargers- 2-3
Raiders- 2-3
Seahawks- 2-3
Chiefs- 1-4
Our opponents are actually 8-12 against everyone else.
RE: Bengals Wins... - leonardfan40 - 10-13-2015
Every team that the Bengals beat has had at least one other undefeated team on their schedule already, except the chargers. The poor chiefs had a 3 week stretch of Broncos, Packers and Bengals. That means out of 25 games our opponents have played that 40% of them were against teams that are undefeated (top 5 teams in the entire NFL) after 5 weeks. Of course their records are gonna be bad.

"You don't know football" as your only insult ever has been old since the other boards shut down.
About 10 people explained to you in that other thread how it was you that didn't comprehend the actual definitions of those words, so I'd watch running that mouth of yours before you look even more silly on here.
You're off to quite the start on here, let's see how long you actually last. If you can't learn how to take a random joke in JN when you're trying to pull the "ha! Told ya so" shit, the internet may not be the best place for you.
RE: Bengals Wins... - Beaker - 10-13-2015
The chargers were undefeated when we played them...and had the number 1 ranked offense. The seahawks were 2-2 with the #2 defense when we beat them. Oakland was 0-0 and has played very well since we beat them. The only stinker team was the ravens, and as a division rival, you throw the records out the window....as the steelers found out. Bottom line, all 5 have been decent wins.

RE: Bengals Wins... - YorkshireBengal - 10-13-2015
The Falcons are 5-0
They have beaten:
Eagles
Giants
Cowboys
Texans
Redskins
I'd say they have played teams of similar standards to our opponents, if not slightly lower. Their remaining games are also much easier than ours.

Says the person that was crying because when the other board shut down multiple people wanted to start up their own message board and he didn't like it.
Shit, I know the internet isn't the best place for you, but you don't have many other options since you couldn't hack it out in the world.
Please continue with your warnings though. It is very cute.

RE: Bengals Wins... - TKUHL - 10-14-2015
Maybe we exposed those teams to help teams after us to beat them. Just a thought.
RE: Bengals Wins... - BURROWorBUST - 10-14-2015
We might only play two teams with winning records all season: Arizona and Denver.

I am not concerned about beating everyone we've played.
Did you happen to notice the record of the teams GB has beat?
RE: Bengals Wins... - CornerBlitz - 10-14-2015
For me it's not really a matter of the bengals opponents record, but how the Bengals are playing. The Bengals offense looks like one of the best in the NFL and the defense steps up when it needs to. Do I think we're the best team in the NFL, probably not. With that said we're probably right behind the Pats and Packers.
