In Week One The Bengals were terrible. The Bengals only scored 10 points and breaking news, you don't win many NFL games scoring 10 points. Patriots only score 16 points, but that was enough to win.
We see this every year in Game One. I know all teams have cut back on preseason and training camp prep, but The Bengals are never ready to play Week One for many years now. I'm not sure they could beat a pee wee team in week one. They always show up rusty, out of shape, and not ready to play.
No matter who Bengals play week one next year, Bengals will lose. Bengals are probably the worst week one team in NFL, because they always lose, because for them it's like preseason game trying to get ready for the season, except it counts as a loss.
I bet you are right.
Anyone have any stats on this - during the Zak era?
