If the Bengals were 3-2 would you be feeling good?

If their only losses were the CLE and BAL games how would you feel right now? We would still have the Oline blocking problems and lack of pass rush on D but how would you feel? This board is in complete meltdown mode about Zac's record, if they would have won I wonder if so many people would be in total doom & gloom. The Colts game is winnable, if we're sitting at 3-2 right now and getting ready to face the Colts I bet the tune would be completely different.

I would be feeling better, but not great.
If the Bengals had beaten PHI and LAC, PHI would be 1-4 and LAC would be 0-5. JAX is 1-4.
So beating just very bad teams.

Their next 4 games are against teams who are a combined 15-3.
I predict they lose all those games.
3-2 would turn into 3-6.

Let's be generous and say they get wins against WAS and NYG after that. 5-6.

Bengals would still have games against PIT and BAL, two more losses.
5-8.

I'd be more confident in them winning at least 1 of HOU, MIA, and DAL, but I think all are tossups.
So ultimately anywhere from 5 to 8 wins on the season.

That's what I expected going into the season.

Right now, I have a feeling they end up 3-12-1 or 4-11-1, with just wins over WAS and NYG, maybe HOU.
