My ever-optimistic official predictions for the Cincinnati Bengals' 2008 season. Well... this season it's not quite so optimistic -- but perhaps too optimistic anyway. It's gonna be an ugly season, I'm afraid. (And this feeling grows all the worse after they lost the first game -- probably the easiest game of the entire season. It's gonna be very ugly.) We lost several key players in the off-season, draft foolishly, and are in quite a bit of chaos, it seems to me. Chaos and losses capped off by firing three past Pro-Bowl players (just 1 week before the season opened): one of whom was immediately signed by New England, one of whom was immediately signed by Detroit, and one of whom was signed within a week by Baltimore [who raised his pay by a few hundred thousand dollars over a 3 year contract]. And mind you, the Bengals fired them -- i.e., they got nothing in return (like... maybe they could have traded them to those other teams and gotten some extra draft picks next Spring). Ugh. Chaos.
