Cincinnati @ Chicago Bears

*Chicago breaking in a new coach this year in Mark Trestman. 

* Bears relying on a running game against a tough Bengals squad is a bad option.

* Defense ready to feast on a turnover-prone Jay Culter. 

*Good game overall that goes down to the wire. Bengals win 17-10 

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cincinnati 

*Pittsburgh losing big play-makers in off-season in James Harrison, Mike Wallace and Casey Hampton.

*Replacing them with rookies and journeymen.

*Bengals win big on Monday Night football. 28 – 13 

Green Bay Packers @ Cincinnati 

Aaron Rodgers losing his biggest play makers. 

Greg Jennings & Donald Driver. Pack defense without 

Playmaker Charles Woodson. 

Bengals win. 24-7

Cincinnati @ Cleveland Browns 

Cleveland making key signings in the offseason combined with another solid draft has Browns optimistic for once.

Game is squished between more high-profile games against Bears, Steelers and Patriots, leading Bengals to overlook a young Cleveland team hungry for wins.

Browns surprise Cincinnati and hand them their first loss of season.

Cleveland wins. 17-14
