Vote: What do you expect from the Bengals?



Cincinnati Bengals
Last season: 8-8
Key additions: Leon Hall, Edgerton Hartwell, Kenny Irons
Key losses: Brian Simmons, Eric Steinbach

Summer's long days and high temperatures are doing their best to disguise it, but the NFL season is right around the corner. Before you know it, Sundays will be full of gridiron action as 32 teams do their part to see which one will stand where the Indianapolis Colts stood at the end of last season. So to get you ready for what's to come, we're offering up a host of key questions for every team. Consider it your SportsNation minicamp.

  • 1) How much will the publicized off-field problems of some Bengals negatively impact the team on the field this season?
  • 2) Is Marvin Lewis on the hot seat after one playoff appearance in four seasons?
  • 3) Will LB Odell Thurman, suspended for the entire 2006 season, play a significant role for the Bengals this season?
  • 4) The Bengals were 8-8 last season; how many games will they win this season?
  • 5) Will the Bengals make the playoffs this season?
