True to form, the Bengals started the season by laying a total egg against the Ravens. Team looked completely uninspired and out of sync.

With the offensive line playing like they did yesterday, they will be lucky to win 5 games this season.

And it goes from bad to worse against the Texans. I don't think the Bengals can win 2 of their next 4 games. An 0-6 start is very realistic possibility.

I heard that last Sunday the Ravens didn't complete one pass in the second half, yet they still shut us out 20-0. That stat is just unbelievable.

Don't the Bengals have the coach with the longest losing streak/drought, when it comes to playoff wins? They have never won a single playoff game under this coach? Am I correct?

You are correct, Boom.

The Bengals just fired offensive coordinator Ken Zampese.

PaulCat - even with them firing Zampese, I do not think this team wins more than 5 games this year. Their offensive line is in a word "offensive" and will have Dalton running for his life all season.

My guess is we also see Marvin Lewis move on as years end seeing as how he is not signed for next season.

I think Zampese had to go, but I agree, there's not much you can do when the offensive lines just sucks. It's gonna be a long year for us Bengal fans.

Bengals have had one losing season in the past 6 years. (last season)

They haven't won a playoff game in 20 years

The last Bengals play-off win was in 1990 against the Oilers. (41-14)

The NFL, excluding politics, is a fair league. If a team has a very long losing streak or drought when it comes to playoff wins, it is the fault of front office and the head coach. The owner of the bengals is a rube. He doesn't want to win.

In baseball, the large market teams have a huge advantage over the smaller market teams. The large market teams can go out an outspend the smaller market teams on pitching and pay for the advantage on the field.

in the NFL, losing teams have no excuse but to look in the mirror and realize that they either have poor front office management, poor coaching, or both.
