But those 5 games mean nothing in the opener. So that's a meaningless stat. Bengals only come to Chicago once every 7 or 8 years. That record probably goes back to the 80s. Most of these current Bengals have never played the Bears.
They're a talented team. So of course they could win.
That's exactly right. I hate when TV talking heads bring up historical stats like that, as if they have any meaning. Zaidman constantly brings this kind of stuff up as well, and it's extremely annoying.
Who the hell of any consequence says the Bengals are anything in the first place?
