Just when it looked like the Cincinnati Bengals could earn a moment of reprieve from the NFL's watchful eye after allowing 86 points in their last two home games, they somehow found a way to make their performance in the 2025 season look worse.
The New York Jets and Chicago Bears, both of whom looked like they were playing against college defenses when they suited up against the Bengals, reverted back to the mean in a truly brutal-to-watch fashion.
The Jets may have put up some points against the Cleveland Browns, but two of their touchdowns came on kick returns.
