It's possible we see some decline from them on the Bengals, as they are playing in new scheme and may still need to gel by season start.
For example, Reiff wasn't as good last year with the Bengals as he was the previous season in MIN.
The Reiff example could be due to the players around him, the competition, how d coordinators called defenses against Minnesota as opposed to how the called them against the Bengals.
It's speculation, but speculation is based on research of additions and abilities and it seems like Draft Sharks has done little-to-no research on the Bengals.

Not everything, but these very knee-jerk type threads (Both Pro and Con the Org/Players) seem a little contrived.I'm posting this because the offensive line was easily the weakest part of the team last year and was in the 20s in the league rankings to finish the season, yet we still made the Super Bowl, even if we needed a lot of things to go our way.
Burrow took us there, despite taking the most sacks in the league.
What does that tell you? That Burrow is a great quarterback, we have a good team, and we won't need nearly as much luck to have a solid season and make another Super Bowl run with an improved line.
Posting just to post, though? Yeah, like I said, all that rep has made you feel like a message board superstar/hard ass.
