RE: Our 2024 Schedule - No-huddle Joe - 07-16-2024
Honestly, the strength of schedule is only based on what teams did last year. One thing the NFL did right was make almost every year be one where there are surprise teams that are winners where last year they were losers. I mean, we were 9-8, but with a healthy Joe, we could have been 11-6. I don't take a lot of stock in S.O.S. How many times have teams lost games that they should have been wins? Any given Sunday, its the NFL, and every game is tough. Now, lets get that ring!

Starting the season with divisional games like we have in the past had us playing hyper critical games exactly when we were not ready (due to not enough snaps). So we started the season in the hole. This way we can hopefully be 1-1 at worst out of the first two which is a far better spot to be in.
Been tough the last few seasons the first couple weeks. Last year starting out against the Stains and Ratbirds with an injured Joe Burrow
was the worst thing that could of happened.

Interesting stuff from Warren Sharp.
Bengals last season:

#1 toughest schedule of opponents
11 games vs playoff teams
- most in the NFL since at least 2000
14 games vs teams over .500
- most in the NFL since at least 2000
Joe Burrow made only 5 healthy starts
despite ALL THAT:
9 wins & almost made playoffs pic.twitter.com/FR3J6FEgaK
the Bengals are one of the few teams being forced to play 3 games in 10 days

after banning this scheduling tactic, the NFL brought it back, and Cincy deals with it Wk 14, Wk 15 & Wk 16
they also play 3 short week road games this year
most in the NFL (Wk 4, Wk 10, Wk 15)
and…
Old thread bump... sorry not sorry lol.
