Nick Wright Makes A Strong Statement About The Bengals
The Kansas City Chiefs have been one of the best teams in the NFL since Patrick Mahomes took over as quarterback.
They have made it to five straight AFC Championship games, an indication of how they have dominated the conference.
After starting this season with a 7-2 record, the Chiefs appear poised to make another run to the AFC’s title game.
Analysts have tried to predict which team might bring them down this season.
Nick Wright is among several pundits who have faith in the Cincinnati Bengals to attempt to stop them.
“The Bengals are clearly the second-most dangerous team in the AFC, more than the Ravens,” Wright said.
The Baltimore Ravens have been given significant praise due to their hot start, but Wright isn’t convinced they can beat the Chiefs.
He believes the Bengals could get the job done, but also discusses their difficult schedule down the stretch.
The Bengals have several marquee games on their schedule, including the Ravens, Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, and the Chiefs.
The matchup between the Chiefs and Bengals in Week 17 could have major implications for playoff seeding, especially for the Bengals.
After the Bengals’ slow start, their record is now at 5-3.
They have fallen into a three-way tie for second place in the AFC North hoping to chase the Ravens throughout the rest of the season.
Wright believes they might have enough firepower to take down the Chiefs, but they have to get through the regular season first.
Health has been a trying factor for this team, which could be the difference between a Super Bowl ring and a first-round playoff exit.
