Vegas factors in actual team wide talent, proven coaching and doesn’t assume that every injured player will come back as if nothing had ever happened. Declining with age for key players is a thing too. Vegas should be a realistic look at where the Bengals are, there isn’t the politics and bias. Most fans can’t handle the truth if there’s any negative involved.
For what it's worth, last year Vegas was way off base (more than 2.5 games in the over/under) on the Bears, Packers, Texans, Colts, Jags, Chiefs, Rams, Saints, Raiders, and 49ers. That's almost a third of the league! Like all predictions, take it with a large grain of salt and enjoy the hopefully entertaining discussions it leads to.
