While I completely understand the logical trepidation with assigning the Bengals 6, 7, or 8 wins, I strongly believe that if Burrow throws for close to 4,000 yards with a healthy Green, Ross, HIggins, Mixon, etc. producing as we have indicated....
The Bengals will win at least 9 games and will be in the playoffs.
A much more productive offense, a better defense (especially against the run which killed them slowly last year), and the coaching staff figuring out their team in year 2 is going to make this team a contender. Yes, Burrow and Green on offense, the additions made to the defense, and the improved coaching we saw down the stretch make this team a contender.
