The First Five Will Tell the Tale!

at Chicago

Pitt at home on national TV

Green Bay at home

at Cleveland

New England at home

These five games to start the season will tell us pretty definitively whether this team is a serious contender or not. Two divisional games, and three others against playoff caliber teams, couldn't think of a better way to start the season, better win 3 out of the five if we hope to be playing in January.

I'll call 4-1 with the lone loss coming to Green Bay.

Bears o-line can't contain the Bengals D-line

Beat the Steelers at home but lose to them on the road later on

Aaron Rogers

Cleveland always plays them tough, but not enough

New Enlgand is not the New England of old. Geno crushes Brady.

Yes, I agree about these games setting the tone as well.

Marvin is always about the fast start.

at Chicago -- another opening day debacle, Bears 34, Bengals 16. Panic ensues.

Pitt at home on national TV -- bounce back win, Bengals 23, Steelers 17. Dismissed since Pitt is supposed to be bad this year, Bengals still can't beat good teams, yada yada yada. Panic continues.

Green Bay at home -- Bengals lose by 3 or fewer point due to some flukey play/bad call/teams brain fart. Doc makes first comment about raking leaves on Sunday.

at Cleveland -- Bengals blow two-score-plus lead in the fourth quarter. Fan base blows all gaskets. Hobson reports whispers of JJ getting more reps at QB with the starters.

New England at home -- 12-game win streak en route to first round bye begins with 30+ point blowout of Pats. :)
