Cincinnati Bengals Schedule 2019 Bengals Schedule

The Bengals struggled on both sides of the ball this past year, and with no real moves in the offseason, it is hard to imagine they are going to surpass being .500. Cincinnati gets a middle of the road strength of schedule. With Cleveland being better, and it is hard to say the Bengals even have a better roster at this point, those are not two winnable games with ease as they were in the past. They also get Baltimore and Pittsburgh twice, which tend to be ugly games, and while Baltimore is somewhere they can compete, it is hard to see them taking one away from this Steelers team. The Bengals get Indy, which is there lone AFC South matchup this season. With Andrew Luck likely returning, this is going to be a tougher matchup than last season’s. Cincinnati does have a winnable game against Miami, as they face some of the bottom barrel opponents from other divisions. The Bengals also faced the AFC West, which makes it a tougher schedule going into Los Angeles and Kansas City. They do have Denver and Oakland at home, but those are going to be toss-up games. All four teams will be very competitive this season, and for a team like the Bengals winning zero or one of these games seems very likely. The NFC South is going to come to town, and they face Carolina and Atlanta in back-to-back weeks. With both of them being on the road, there will be more pressure to get wins against Indy and Baltimore in the first two weeks.
