How do you like going into the year with HIGH expectations?

I am not optimistic. But its more so circumstantial than anything. Being a game out and having the Ravens, Steelers, and now the emerging Browns as a threat to all win the division really hurts our chances.

This team needed a fast start due to their schedule and they didn't really get it. I know it's because Burrow was hurt more than anything else, but it is what it is.

That being said, they still have it all in front of them. Certainly not out of it yet but its going to be a lot harder this year than it was in years past.
