The Bengals better be giving us condolences for forcing us to watch them like this for the first quarter of the season.
In all seriousness, yes, a win this weekend is paramount. Making the playoffs after starting 1-3 isn't impossible, just like 0-2, but it becomes unlikely. Even 1-4 isn't impossible, just even more unlikely. Historically speaking, once you go 1-6, your season is effectively over. There has only ever been one team to start 1-6 and make the playoffs...
The 1970 Bengals.
