Anyone know all the teams that have facilities? Do they tend to play better than the Bengals?
As of the date of this article, 10 teams were without practice facilities: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81cf4765/article/snow-forces-redskins-to-gym-shanahan-seeks-indoor-facility
The Bengals and Redskins were the northernmost teams without one, but the article says Washington doesn't receive much snow during the season, but that high winds and rain were the issue for them.
As of 2013, the Skins have a facility: https://redskinsrva.bonsecours.com/the-center
The Panthers have plans for a massive facility: https://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/news/2019/04/24/nfl-carolina-panthers-headquarters-sc-plan-massive-complex-hotel-sports-medicine-york-county/3560212002/
The Jaguars have one as of 2017: https://www.firstcoastnews.com/article/sports/nfl/jacksonville-jaguars/jaguars-unveil-new-indoor-practice-facility-at-dailys-place/462018938
The Bucs as of 2018: https://www.bucsnation.com/2018/8/27/17788380/one-buc-place-has-a-new-name-tampa-bay-buccaneers-bucs
The Cowboys have one: https://www.thestarinfrisco.com/
The Cardinals have one: https://www.azcentral.com/story/money/2018/10/10/dignity-health-arizona-cardinals-agree-naming-rights-tempe-facility/1592199002/
The Raiders had one in Oakland: https://www.raiders.com/photos/youth-alive-visit-the-oakland-raiders-practice-facility#39894553-8392-4ac0-828c-4b9c7229e557
Now the Raiders will have one in Las Vegas: https://raiderswire.usatoday.com/2018/06/11/raiders-close-deal-on-las-vegas-practice-facility/
The 49ers have one: https://www.ninersnation.com/2014/5/5/5685594/49ers-officially-re-name-training-facility-sap-performance-facility

That officially leaves the Bengals as the only team in the league without a practice facility.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
