The Cincinnati Bengals finished a dumpy 7-9 last year ... which isn't that horrible considering the tough schedule they had.

Well, 2008 may be even tougher.

Cincinnati has eight games against teams that were in the playoffs last year. The get Pittsburgh (twice), Super Bowl Champion New York Giants, Washington, Dallas, Jacksonville, Indianapolis and Tennessee. The also get the 10-6 Cleveland Browns twice.

In the first eight games, six are against teams that won at least 10 games in 2007.

Only four of their games are against teams with losing records last year (Jets, Chiefs, Ravens twice).

By the way, pretty much every Bengals game this year will be at 1:00pm. Only a Week 5 game at Dallas (4:15pm) and a Week 12 game at Pittsburgh (Thursday night game) differ in time.
