The tough part of the schedule IMO is weeks 13-15. In that 3 week span they play at Ravens at Bills and Ravens at home.

Weeks 3 through 6 won’t be a picnic either, with at Minnesota, at Denver, home vs. Detroit and at Green Bay, all playoff teams from 2024. But with at Cleveland and home with Jacksonville as the first two games, it’s almost a must for Cincy to avoid their usual 0-2 start, and get out of the gate 2-0. If they start 0-2 again, surely heads will roll.

Tough draw on the other divisions the AFC North will see this season. Makes it tough to contend for a wild card. They'll need to perform well against the AFC East and take care of business in almost all of the games that they'll be favored in.

Agree that heads will roll if there's another 0-2 start.

This feels like a make or break season in Cincinnati.

I don't believe that heads will roll if they start 0-2. This is Mike Brown and his family of misfit toys. Should heads roll if they start 0-2? Absolutely! Heads should have already rolled. No excuse that they haven't. Zac Taylor would be a 4or 5 win/ a season coach w/o Burrow and Chase. He's been gifted a couple of generational talents, but time is being wasted on the way.

Everywhere you turn
Time we have wasted on the way
So much water moving
Underneath the bridge
Let the water come and carry us away" ---CS&N

Probably repeating a statistic that's been posted here before, but was listening to sports talk radio yesterday and they said Zac Taylor had a 1-11 record as a head coach in his first two games of the season.

Yikes.

And this stat alone has crippled us most times getting behind early and playing catch up from week 1.

Just announced on ESPN's Sportcenter that Trey Henderickson is ending his holdout and will be reporting to practice tomorrow while still negotiating extending his contract. Great News!!

Team cancer, will end up quitting on his teammates, not playing 100%.   Hopefully they trade him mid season.

Get real.

I’ve told you guys before, you have to ignore that guys posts, they are usually so over-the-top stupid that it’s obvious they are just posted to get a rise out of folks. Clearly this is great news for the Bengals, Hendrickson has always been a 110% performer. Hopefully Stewart, the rookie from A & M, can take some of the focus off him, and allow him to be even more of a dominant force this year. Obviously the Bengals will score, improvement on the defensive side is a must to advance deep into the postseason.

King of hot takes.  Having said that, I've read a lot of posts about the Bengals and Trey on a Reds message board and quite a few of the Bengals fans on there agree with Plant that the Bengals should cut ties with a selfish Trey.  Plant's not the only one that feels this one. Personally, I like having him in there. We need his pass rush. Hopefully, he'll play all out and put the off field stuff aside. I think he will.
