There are so few answers to give concerning Cincinnati. Marvin Lewis is back but seem to want to get rid of some of his best players, including Chad Ochocinco. Carson Palmer wants a trade, which could mean the Bengals are yet another team that will need to find someone who can start at that position. Their defense, once one that helped make the AFC North seem like the defensive division of the NFL, was terrible last season.
I have no idea what the Bengals need to do this offseason. I think they should keep Ochocinco. Owens had a good year but it may not be a good idea to keep both players together next season. They need to find a way to either keep Carson Palmer, or trade him for a couple good defenders and use their early draft pick to lock up a quarterback for the future.
Because I have so few ideas as to what to expect, I don’t expect much. I think the Bengals will again be at the bottom of the AFC North. The Ravens and Steelers will again be good next year and the Browns seem to be on their way up. Cincinnati has a lot of questions it needs to answer for itself before they can get things going again. The worst part is, many of those questions may need to start with the coaches.
