Are the Bengals ready for the AFC North?

The 2017 season has to be a turnaround for the Bengals. This isn’t your average go 8-8 and look at the bright side type of year. Marvin Lewis is on a short leash–seemingly–and fans are hyped about the young prospects that will be wearing stripes. But, it may not be the easy cakewalk that many faithful think it will be. Yes, you can take it to the bank. The Bengals will definitely be a competitive bunch. But, they aren’t the only team with designs on conquering the AFC North.
