They don't have a chance at winning the division this year and are most likely going to end the year looking up at the Ravens, Steelers, and Browns.
Why tank? To get the first pick in the draft and reboot the QB position. To accumulate draft picks and swap out old veteran guys that are on the back end of their career for younger, cheaper talent.
If im the Bengals, I commit to rebuilding and tanking over the next couple of seasons. I would draft Klyer Murray this year, evaluate him and see if he can be the QB of the future. If not, continue looking for your guy or hold out for the ultimate prize of Trevor Lawrence. Trade guys like AJ, Geno, and Dunlap for picks.
The window is closed. Time to reboot and start over.
Well, looks like you are partly getting your wish. It's too late since we signed Geno and Dunlap. We will sign AJ and Boyd. I imagine they would like to trade AJ but the fans would revolt in ticket sales. But this is where we ditch everyone else and rebuild with youth. Go for QB next year.
