I would expect to win 4 or 5 more games based on the schedule, which won't get us into the playoffs. We'll need to beat the Ravens and Steelers to make the playoffs.
Edit: Preseason I was thinking around 8 wins--but I don't think I verbalized it. I figured we'd get better as the season went along--as we've seen happen.
Playoffs are out of the question. They aren’t there yet. Cincinnati is in the “exciting young team” category at the moment, but they aren’t playoff caliber. I don’t think we’ll see a divisional victory this season, unfortunately. The Browns were the best chance.
I originally predicted 4 wins. The offense has been clicking, and I think they can legitimately beat NY and Dallas. The WFT is going to be a TOUGH matchup for Cincinnati. They don’t do much well except for rush the passer and they are damn good at it.
I’m going to say Cincinnati ends up 5-10-1. I think they can pull out wins against Miami, Dallas and NY, but lose a squeaker against WFT.
