How many games will the Bengals win?

[KBMJfan34]

I think 11.

[HammerTime]

Vegas set the over/under at 9 for the Bengals, Steelers, and Ravens. I say 10.

[HOMELESS CAMEL]

I didn't realize how tough their schedule is, I say 9, BUT I wouldn't be surprised if they got 10 OR just finished 8-8.

[HammerTime]

Last years schedule was 10 times harder than this years.

[KBMJfan34]

In this magazine i have their predictions in the AFC North are:

 

1.Bengals (10-6)

2.Ravens (9-7)

3.Steelers (7-9)

4.Browns (3-13)

 

 

 

Here are mine:

 

1.Bengals (11-5)

2.Ravens (10-6)

3.Steelers (8-8)

4.Browns (4-12)

Taking out the Ravens, Pittsburgh and Cleveland, since those 6 games are etched in stone.

@San Francisco

@Miami

 

Buffalo and Miami you would THINK the Bengals should win easily. Who knows how much better the 49ers, Cardinals, Titans might be. On paper it might not be as tough as last year, but if those teams continue to improve it could be a really tough schedule.

Exactly! tied #1 for toughest schedule last year with NYG I think, and we lost 6 of our 8 games by ONE possesion!! Not to mention we return all the play makers and added Leon Hall, Kendrick Allen, Ed Hartwell and maybe Odell comes back.

I say 10.

[Son of Bear]

I say 3-3 in the AFC North with one loss coming from each division opponent.

 

The Bengals will also lose to the Pats, Seahawks, 49ers, and Rams giving them a 9-7 mark.

I don't see the Bengals losing to the Browns.

[h.s.sportsrbest]

I'll take 7 but it isn't an option.

Ouch! 7 wins would really compromise Marvin's hold on this job

I doubt there is a bigger Bengals' fan on the site, but the combination of a defense that needs to prove to me it can make big stops and a brutal schedule -- that is my fear: 7-9.

I selected 9, but 7 is definetly a possibility.
