Set the tone for the rest of the year, those 1st 4 games
Are extremely winnable

Talent wise the Bengals are on the level
With the Vikings Bears Steelers and Jacksonsville

As a matter of fact Joe Burrow should be the
Best QB on the field in all 4 of those games. When was
The last time the Bengals could claim that in a 4 game stretch
2015?

Again it is going to.come down to coaching.
Can ZT and LA put together a better gameplan
Than Nagy Tomlin Zimmer and Meyer?

The 1st 4-games will determine this season unfolds
Go 0 4...the season is done. ZT should be fired.
1 3...life support
2 2 theres hope for playoffs
3 1 4 0 now you got momentum and confidence.

The Bengals arent facing a murderers row of QB.
Its a rookie a washed up limp.arm Big Ben
A hot cold Cousins...and then its Andy.

These games will be decided by the Bengals defense.

Specifically, the new and improved rush defense.  The Vikes are going to be all about Dalvin Cook.  Keep him in check and the Bengals could start 1-0.  Same for the Bears.  They have a solid line and decent RBs.  The steelers had an awful rushing attack last year and will be trying to "get healthy" against the Bengals in that regard.  If the Bengals are 2-0 heading in to that game, I think they have a real shot coming out of there 3-0, even if the game is on the road.  The steelers will open at Buffalo and then have the Raiders at home.  The Raiders are quite an enigma, and they seem to be really solid early in the season only to fade by the year's end.  I still see them beating the Raiders.  

If Cincy comes out of pitt 3-0, and the steelers fall to 1-2.....well, let's just say it will be fun to watch them fall apart. 

A Nationally televised game against the Jags on the following Thursday Night will be amazing.  Lawrence will have already likely discovered that he can't run away from people in this league, and might be pretty beat up.  The NFL tried to help Jax get off to a decent start with week 1 being against the lowly Texans (hey, gambling degenerates....this one is easy money.  Everyone will be taking Jax here.  Take the Texans).  Then they get the Broncos and Cards at home.  Getting Denver early before they make a QB change will be helpful (but they will still lose).  

I think a 3-0 Bengals team will want to come out that Thursday night and blow a hole in the Jags.  

Man, I am getting excited thinking about it.
