Bengals - Over/Under 10.5 wins?

[bugatti]

In all the Over/Unders I will do, this one will appeal most to our BGPers.

 

With the addition of T.O., the Bengals have become a trendy pick all of a sudden with pundits. Not to mention there seems to be supreme confidence from Bengal players, most notably team leader Chad Ochocinco letting us know it will be a "disappointment" if they do not win the Superbowl.

Under. Good team I just think our schedule is too brutal to get to 11 or more wins.

[UKMustangFan]

I came up with 10 by just glancing at the schedule. I think they have a real possibility of starting out the season 5-0, before making the trek to Atlanta. If they are able to get by them, an 8-0 record is possible although not very probable, when they face Indy. (That's what I'm hoping for anyways, since I'll be at Lucas Oil in my TO jersey. )

 

The back end of that schedule is about as brutal as they come though. Yikes!

I'd go with 10.

[Blue Magic]

I think we win Carolina, Cleveland 2x , Tampa Bay, and Buffalo for sure. That's 5 wins. The other 11 games to me could all go the other way. I think the games Cincinnati will be an underdog in will be at New England, probably against Baltimore in week 2, Indy, and New Orleans. They have a great shot at winning 9 or 10 games but I'm not so sure we can get to 11.

[CatsCatsCats]

I'll take the under, but just barely. I think worst case they should win 7 games, but I think they win 10. I could see them winning 12 though if they play really well.

[RomanEmpire]

Going with 11. Don't think the Bengals will shut it down this year like last year at the end of the season. I am glad they put some division games towards the end of the schedule to prevent that. I think we sweep the division.

[Blue Magic]

I'll say 5-1 in the division with a loss to Baltimore at their place.

[MJAlltheWay24]

I think that they'll win 9-10 games. Would love eleven, but I just don't think it will happen.

[Big Slick]

Las Vegas has this over/under out at 8 or 8.5 in some places, so I went under. I hope they win them all, but those guys are pretty good at what they do, but some say these lines can be easy, so who knows.

[spindoc]

Discounting Pittsburgh. That's what I like to hear. I think the Bengals lose the opener, and if that happens, the house of cards may crumble right out of the gate. It will be interesting.

I saw that but I knew we would hit over for virtually everyone if I went with Vegas

[Hip-Hop Box]

I'll go with 11 wins...
