In the first part of the season, the Bengals were on fire. They were 4-1, leading in the AFC North, and scoring well over 30 points per game. If the team continued to play like that all year, this might have been the best season in franchise history.
But then the wheels fell off the track and the Bengals have been steadily spiraling downward ever since. The Bengals are now 1-5 in their last six games, and we don’t need to beat any more dead horses talking about how bad this team is. If this team had played like this all year, this might have been the worst season in franchise history.
