00:00the AFC North, my favorite division coming into the season.
00:06Is it living up to the hype?
00:07Nope, absolutely not.
00:08Why? The Bengals are 1-4, the Browns are 1-4, the Steelers
00:12opened up 3-0, Dubsy. Two straight losses.
00:15They're 3-2. The Ravens, who lost a game to the Vegas Raiders
00:19here, sit 3-2.
00:20But if we look at the price points here, minus $2.70 for the
00:23Ravens.
00:23I agree with that.
00:24The Steelers plus $4.30.
00:25And also, look at the Browns, plus $3,700 to win the division.
00:31And then the Bengals at plus $7.50.
00:33Let's start at the bottom here.
00:34So disappointing for the Bengals, at 1-4.
00:37But I saw this coming, where this team wasn't focused, heading
00:40into the season. Contracts not being fulfilled, not practicing,
00:45coming back to the team.
00:46The offense hasn't been the issue, Dubs. The defense, under
00:49Luan Aramo, has been an absolute sieve. The Bengals at 1-4.
00:53Can they get up off the mat, or are they just destined to miss
00:56the playoffs now at 1-4?
00:57I think they can get up off the mat, but they're going to need
01:01everything going in their favor to make a bit of a run here out
01:04of the AFC North. For Cleveland, I guess not a lot of shocks
01:08there, that they've just got the one win. What a disaster that
01:10was over the weekend. Sean Watson, whether there were too many
01:13players on the field, he just does not look interested at all.
01:16But I guess in favor for the Bengals, they've got one of the
01:19best quarterbacks in the league in Joey Burrett.
01:21They've got one of the best wide receivers in Jamar Chase. For
01:24Zach Taylor, there's been a lot of pressure and there was a lot
01:27of rust to start the campaign.
01:29I mean, dropping week one to the Patriots, you push up a very
01:33game fight going against the Kansas City Chiefs.
01:35We now know the commanders have been pretty strong.
01:37So take a look at the schedule there for the Bengals.
01:40I think they'd have the best shot of turning things around and
01:42trying to find a bit of momentum going through the next four,
01:44five weeks.
01:45It's the Giants, Browns, Eagles, Raiders on tap before they
01:49would square off with the Ravens again.
01:51So I think they've got a really good chance to chalk up a couple
01:54of big victories starting here in week six going against New
01:57York and they've just got, I guess, that X factor that we keep
02:01on banking on.
02:02You know, as better as we look at the Bengals and say they should
02:05be better than this.
02:06They should be standing a lot further up this board, but they
02:10haven't done it.
02:10So I guess it's the intangible that we're banking on for Cincinnati
02:14to turn things around, but they've only got a couple more chances
02:17if they were to drop this one in week six.
02:19I do not like the number there of trying to turn it around.
02:2237-1 for good reason.
02:24The Ravens, they've only looked better.
02:26They are flying up top of the divvy.
