- Bottom 5 strength of schedule
- VERY few travel miles compared to what could have been.
- NO long travel road trips back back to back
- Longest road trip is SD.... ON 10 DAYS REST!
- 3/4 of their first games are against 2 rookie QBs & 1 2nd year QB.
On paper (which is all we have at the moment), this is the most forgiving, least taxing, best setup to start fast possible.
Any downsides on this schedule are minor compared to the above gifts.
4 of their 1st 6 games are against bad and/or teams in complete disarray. There's no gauntlet of teams on the middle or backend where it's a bunch of championship caliber QBs on road trips to either coast.
This is a dream sched for the Bengals.
Yeah, this is about the best sched we have had in forever. If we cannot start fast with this one there is a problem.
