The 49ers this year seems to be doing just fine without BOTH of their starting Tackles.
The Saints were 6-0 without Brees.
The Packers won the SB a handful of years back with a lot of starters on IR.
The Steelers have won a few games without Roethlisberger.
Yet...Green gets hurt and we're 0-8. So we shouldn't have won a SINGLE GAME WITHOUT GREEN?
Back to the Saints...
In general I don't disagree with your premise that these teams are deeper than the Bengals, but...
We all remember Bountygate; right? Sean Peyton was suspended the entire next season. From 2009 to 2011 they went 13-3, 11-5, 13-3. The following year when Peyton was suspended they were a 7-9 team. They lost Drew Brees for multiple games this year, and Alvin Kamara missed 2 games over that same span. They hardly missed a beat. Coaching matters in this league.
