If A.J.Green stays healthy,he is going to push these receivers to be great.He wants to make the playoffs and I see him as really balling out this season if he can stay healthy.The first game at the Hawks is a massive challenge and I am predicting a field goal will win that one.There QB is fast on his feet and that always just kills the Bengals.I expect him to run all over the place and the noise there is just insane.I see a loss at that place.I do believe our players are going to play lights out. That is stinkin awlful that the league always puts our team in a bad way to start the season.

6-10.
It’s not even an indictment to the roster and staff. Our schedule is tough this year.

My new prediction...Not a lot of actual reporting about the team, but lots of pretty pictures of the team not actually doing anything ala "Media day" pictures.. Now THAT'S exciting...

Coaches and players have changed, but things seem to remain the same since MB took the helm. It is what it is.
That would mean a 5-2 start. Stop for a moment and imagine this team sitting at 5-2, likely in sole possession of or tied for first place. And, about to depart for the UK to show the world the "new" Cincinnati Bengals. Jesus, you'd have to pull people off the ceiling around here. And there'd be a million and one smarmy I-told-you-sos being tossed about by people who'd done no such thing. So, if they are destined for only six wins, I sure hope the losses are spread out a bit more.

And in runs the horde to tell you how wrong you are, with the only real question being who will have the most dire prediction, because objective.

We will whip the afc at our place,so that is going to be 10 wins IF OUR QB STAYS HEALTHY and everyone else that is a starter,especially the lines.The defense is going to surprise a lot of teams.I believe they are going to bring it all game.Watch Sam Hubbard make the pro-bowl along with Geno. :andy:

They were 10-6 last year, and have one of the best QB’s in the league.

Man, if that collapse happens, Zac will go from hero to new ML whipping boy quickly. 1-8 to close out year would be as worse than any ML bad year I do believe. It would mirror last year when we had a ton of injuries.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

It wasn't good news. It was a prediction and it doesn't mean jack shit until the team gets on the field and wins games.

NFC West, an improved raiders team, Pitt and Cleveland twice, and New England.

Well...we already lost Jonah and Boling...so how can the 'lines stay healthy' part of your prediction come true?
Now Green is out for 6-8 weeks.

I predict 5-11. Our oline sucks ass. If we still had Whitworth n Zeitler I’d say 10-6.

It's still a last place schedule. Basically you play 3 different teams based on your record the previous year than other teams in the division do.
Believe it or not, we're allowed to improve our team in the offseason too! Yeah radical idea isn't it?

Depends on Health losing 3 starters isn't good Boiling, Williams, and Green are all guys I had as + starters on offense. I still think this team can be Good on Defense(last season was a weird one for that unit) and Explosive on offense. I would say this team is an 8-8 or 9-7 caliber team.

I know folks like to point to this as the beginning of the end, but the last season Whitworth and Zeitler were here the Bengals still only won 6 games.
