Now can someone on here convince me not to have a bet ?? We were 1 play away last season, we have strongly improved on our weakness area and our draft players look ready to go. Best qb - check, best offense check, best kicker check. It might well not work out but holy hell I hope it does. At those odds could you really resist a bit of a punt. The bookies are usually right but are these odds too good to resist ????
I'm gonna bet the teams that are ahead are ones with more proven OL and a QB who has had multiple really good statistical seasons and/or championships.
All of the below are probably above Bengals in odds:
Packers
Rams
Bucs
Bills
Chiefs
And then you probably add a couple more just because of general franchise success and doing well last year but lost in the playoffs:
Cowboys
49ers
Then you probably have some teams getting put ahead just because of the higher profile FA(s) brought in despite actually doing worse last year in the regular season:
Chargers
Broncos
Raiders
Personally, I wouldn't put the Bengals lower than the first 5 I listed.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
