Josh Alper - 5th seed, beat Texans in WC, lose to Steelers in divisional round
Curtis Crabtree - 3rd seed, beat Raiders and Chiefs, lose to Pats in AFC Championship
Mike Florio - 5th seed, lose to Texans in WC yet again
Darin Gantt - 1st seed, beat Steelers and Pats, lose to Packers in Super Bowl
Zac Jackson - 5th seed, beat Titans in WC, lose to Steelers in divisional round
Michael David Smith - 1st seed, beat Steelers and Pats, lose to Seahawks in Super Bowl
So out of 6 writers...
5 feel the Bengals will win at least one playoff game (only Florio predicted less)
2 predicted we get 1st seed and get to the Super Bowl
2 predicted we'd beat the Steelers in the playoffs
2 predicted we'd end our season against the Steelers again
I think I'd be at least somewhat happy with any of these scenarios other than Florio's (ugh).
Just figured all those on here who say we're disrespected by the media would enjoy seeing this.
I wouldn't be happy with #1 or #5 either.
All the joy of ending the longest playoff win drought would instantly be demolished the next week.
Like being given an ice cream cone, and then promptly being kicked in the groin right after your first lick.
