Then we have a successful offseason where we address all of the big issue areas and this season we have Burrow back as well as a midrange strength of schedule and only win 1 more game?

Frelund uses analytics for everything, probably even to an unnecessary extent.
She is putting the Bengals, analytically, at the second-most wins in the AFC, which is a good thing.

If the Bengals get completely washed by the division, I can see them at a low of 8 wins.
I see them at a high of 13 wins if they can go at least 3-3 in the division and pulling out a win against the likes of the Chiefs, Eagles, or Cowboys or a winning record in the division.
10-11 wins seems about perfect of a prediction given usually a couple of the gimme games don't always go the way you expect and sometimes you get an unexpected win or two.
