Are the 2020 Bengals the 2019 Titans?

No offense, but I can't trust someone's opinion on this if they think his name is actually Tanneyhill.  

It's a misspelling. Everyone does it. Long work day can tire the

I have not seen one so called expert calling us a playoff team or a team with a winning record. Zac managed to make us worse last year, yet many sing his praises. I am hopeful, but winning games is the benchmark, not how he handles a press conference or what a great guy he is.

Bill Belichick is a bit of an ass, but he sure knows how to put teams together to win.

I want to believe we can be a winning/playoff team in 2021, but I have not yet started feeling my usual optimism. I hope I am wrong and we lift the Lombardi in 2020 or make the playoffs, but we will need a lot of breaks for that to happen in my humble opinion.

Titans had a former All-Pro right tackle and a 3 time Pro Bowl left tackle.

We will have an improved O-line this year, but not on the same level as the Titans

No offense to Mixon, but he can't do what Henry does.

Henry is listed at 6'3", 247 lbs.  But if he is really 6'3" then I'd say he is more like 260.  He punishes defenders.

I was going to say he reminds me a bit of Eric Dickerson, as he looked huge compared to other running backs of that era, but he was only listed as 220#.

I'm not sure I would say this.  The state of the roster last year was a big reason.  Does that fall on Zac?  I don't think it does.
