Bengals @ Bills predictions

[TheBengalsMind]

Well, I look at both teams the Bengals lost too.

Since 2007 98 teams have started 2-0 in the NFL.

You generally have about a 60% chance to make the playoffs.

Chances are that at least 2 of the 3 teams the Bengals have faced likely are Playoff teams. As all 3 have started 2-0.

Under the current playoff format adopted in 1990, only 30 of 238 teams that started out 0-2 recovered to reach the playoffs.

That's just 12.6 percent of teams.

Let's also be honest here. The Bill's are on the flip side they have faced arguably two of the worst teams.

If the Bengals were to face either the Jets or Giants this week they would be favorite to win either game.

The Bill's are looking to go 3-0 and prove they belong among the elite teams and the Bengals are trying to prove week 1 wasn't a aberration.

As good as the teams the Bengals have faced, is as bad as the teams the Bill's have faced.

The Bills have allowed 22 total pressures in 85 pass blocking snaps with 10 pressures being hits on the quarterback (five sacks and five hits allowed).

That works well with our strength on defense, pinning our ears back and attacking.

But they have all the momentum and sometimes that can make players play a lot better and they're home and are likely coming out like they’re emperors of the Empire State!

I think the Bengals are able pull off a victory this week though.
