NFL.com bold predictions for 2015

Your statement is false in saying that Green missed "Almost half of the year".  He played in 13 of the 16 games, and left early in two of them.  This is not "almost half".

The playoff game?  I can get behind people saying that this team was handicapped talent-wise.  The entire year?  No.  Green, Sanu, Gresham, Bernard, and Hill are better than what most teams have.

I am not sure how anyone can argue our top 3 WR's, our top 2 TE's and top WR's were injured a lot in 2014. In fact, they played 60 of a possible 119 games or only close to 50%. This is Green, Sanu, Jones, Eifert, Gresham, Hill and Bernard. It is generous for Hill as he barely saw the ball in 6 games, but I gave him credit for all 17.

In the playoffs, we had Sanu, Hill and Bernard only so we were missing 4 of these guys or over 50% of our offense weapons.

Why would anyone not see this as a major issue for any offense or any NFL QB to be missing the guys they worked with in some cases for years or at a minimum in OTA's and training camps thus were a huge part of their offensive scheme?

Again, this is not like a player or 2 missed a few games, we had massive injury issues with our offensive skill guys in 2014. No excuse, but cold hard facts.

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
