Former All-Pro Makes Bold Playoff Prediction for Joe Burrow and the Bengals
CINCINNATI — The Bengals haven't won a playoff game in more than 30 years, but former All-Pro running back Maurice Jones-Drew believes they can make a deep run this season.
"I have Cincinnati going to the Super Bowl," Jones-Drew said. "I have them winning the AFC. That's how excited I am about this team. They remind me of the Chiefs. Think about it, when the Chiefs came out of nowhere, they had a young quarterback [in his] second year, hot receivers, they could do whatever they wanted. Seems a lot like Cincinnati to me."
The Bengals are the first team in NFL history to have a 4,000-yard passer, 1,000-yard rusher and two 1,000-yard receivers that are 25-years-old or younger.
They certainly have the talent to make a run, but questions remain. Will the offensive line hold up? Can a young team and young coaching staff make a Chiefs-like run this season?
We'll start to get answers to those questions on Saturday when Cincinnati hosts Las Vegas at Paul Brown Stadium.
