1.) Inexperience at LT. Though I think he is everything we hoped for, he hasn't played an NFL snap and won't until the first game.
2.) The health of Ross and Green. I said before that if both were healthy all 16 games, the Bengals would make the playoffs. They haven't even been able to make it out of camp. Hoping they are just being overly cautious, but I worry a lot about Green's hamstring, and whatever Ross did to his arm.
3.) Depth in the secondary: The OP narrowed it down to the #2 CB, but I also worry about safety depth behind Bell and Bates. Williams has already been injured and do we have a safety like Bates on the roster?
4.) Joe Mixon's contract. I understand all the others, but this one should get done. I don't want to say these migraines are related, or phony, but it is becoming an issue when there shouldn't be one. Burrow needs a good rushing attack from Day 1. Get Mixon signed.
5.) Fat Randy. Simply, not a fan.
In regards to #1:
If I'm the DC for the opposing team and I want to rattle the rookie QB I try going through the rookie LT. I know he's not really a rookie but you know what I mean.
