NFL Insider 'Very Bullish' on Joe Burrow and the Bengals Following Offseason Additions
CINCINNATI — Plenty of people doubt the Bengals can repeat what they did in 2021.
They play in an improved conference, were healthy last season and plenty of Super Bowl losers never recover.
Ironically, that's one reason why both Bill Simmons and Peter Schrager think the Bengals can repeat as AFC Champions this season.
"I think the Bengals, this could be the rare we lost the Super Bowl, but we actually might be back situation," Simmons told Schrager on his podcast. "Usually after a Super Bowl loss you go backwards, I don't think they will."
The Bengals finished 10-7 last season, before winning the AFC Championship. They added three starting offensive linemen and key pieces on defense in the draft. Those additions have Schrager excited about the possibility of Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and company making it back to the big game.
"It's one of those deals where it's the 'nobody believes in us team' that was the 'nobody believes in us' team last year," Schrager said. "I'm very, very bullish on the Bengals, even if Vegas is not at the moment."
He also revealed that Burrow is training with Chase, Justin Jefferson and others in California with training camp less than three weeks away.
