What To Do About NATE’S 2008 CINCINNATI BENGALS REGULAR SEASON PREDICTIONS

25 Jun 2008 by Nathan Mallon, 6 Comments »

Those that really know me know that my favorite sports team is the NFL’s Cincinnati Bengals. I have been a died hard Bengals fan since I was 8 years old, through the good times and the tough times (man there have been a lot). I thought I would make my regular season predictions in terms of wins and losses for the upcoming 2008 season. At this point, keep in mind it is late June as I type this and so I may adjust my predictions come August as things could change that would alter my feelings about the upcoming season between then and now.

Anyway, here are my predictions:

9/07 WEEK 1 at Baltimore – WIN

9/14 WEEK 2 TENNESEE – WIN

9/21 WEEK 3 at New York Giants – LOSS

9/28 WEEK 4 CLEVELAND – WIN

10/05 WEEK 5 at Dallas – LOSS

10/12 WEEK 6 at New York Jets – WIN

10/19 WEEK 7 PITTSBURGH – WIN

10/26 WEEK 8 Bye Week

11/02 WEEK 9 JACKSONVILLE – LOSS

11/09 WEEK 10 at Houston – LOSS

11/16 WEEK 11 PHILADELPHIA – WIN

11/20 WEEK 12 at Pittsburgh – LOSS

11/30 WEEK 13 BALTIMORE – WIN

12/07 WEEK 14 at Indianapolis – LOSS

12/14 WEEK 15 WASHINGTON – WIN

12/21 WEEK 16 at Cleveland – LOSS

12/28 WEEK 17 KANSAS CITY – WIN

*cities in all caps are home games.

There you go, I predict the Bengals finish the 08’ season with a 9-7 record. Will that be enough to get them into the playoffs though? I am not sure that it will at this point since the AFC is a much tougher conference than the NFC with teams like New England, Indianapolis, Jacksonville, San Diego, Cleveland and Pittsburgh who all finished 2007 with 10+ wins. I will try to give my 08’ predictions and pre-season thoughts again before the season starts!

    WOW!!!! you have us losing all 4 games to the Steelers and Browns, finishing 2-4 in the division and still going 9-7. I think we split with both and sweep Baltimore. I will give the Bengals a little more credit than you do.

    i agree with you up to the bye week, although i think we can steal the giants game. the giants weren't exactly dominateing the league or anything last year. but 5-2 going into the break sounds about right. but then you have us lossing to houston!?!?! no way man. and i think the philly game is going to be tough, but i think we sweep cle instead of splitting with them like you have. and i just want to say that my upset special this year is going to be us over jax. i know it's a long shot, but it's after the bye and at home. two things that play into our favor. overall i see us at 10-6 which will probably be enough to win the division. i don't think we'll make it to the super bowl, but if we don't have to play n.e. or indy early in the playoffs, we might get to the confrence championship.

    I think they have a chance against against the Giants and Texans I just think they are going to drop a few close ones in those games, I hope not though. Thanks for the comments, WHO DEY!
